Bulky waste collection

Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control we are unable to take any new bookings for Bulky Waste and Mattress collections, this is due to current limited vehicle availability. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and we hope to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

Bulky waste is household waste or rubbish that does not fit into your wheelie bin.

We have a free service to collect bulky items. The service is available to all residents of Middlesbrough, and is offered in addition to the weekly rubbish and fortnightly recycling collections.

Examples of bulky waste are:

  • kitchen items - for example: fridge, freezer, cooker, microwave
  • electrical items - for example: TV, computer, washing machine
  • furniture - for example: bed, sofa

Before you book a bulky waste collection, have you thought about donating your unwanted items to charity? A number of charities, including Teesside Hospice and the British Heart Foundation will collect your items from your home.

Businesses must request a one-off collection, not a bulky waste collection. There is a cost for this service.
