Free Weekend Freighter Service

 

Our refuse lorries are out most weekends collecting larger items of rubbish that cannot fit into your wheelie bin/black sacks. 

 

To find out when the Weekend Freighter is in your area, please see the calendar below.

 

 

Important Information

  • Please take care when handling bulky rubbish and loading it into the Freighter.
  • Do not allow children to handle bulky rubbish or load it into the Freighter.
  • Children should be kept away Freighter at all times.
  • Please do not leave items on the pavement or road before the Freighter arrives.

 

 

Bulky refuse collections

Fridges / Freezers/Televisions/Monitors

 

Please note that fridges, freezers, televisions and monitors can be collected by the Weekend Freighter Service, but they will be collected by a separate vehicle because these items contain substances that must be treated separately from other rubbish.

 

Due to new regulations regarding hazardous waste, each television or monitor collected by the council must be accompanied by evidence of where is came from.  Therefore we can only collect these items if you provide your name and address.

 

You can also have these items collected from your home, using our Bulky Collection Service which will separate them for recycling. There will be a charge for this service.
