Bulky waste collections

About

We can collect large or bulky items from households within the North Warwickshire area for a small charge. This service is not available to businesses and landlords.

We're working in partnership with Emmaus Coventry and Warwickshire to provide this service. Emmaus Coventry and Warwickshire are a local charity. Items which are reusable will be used by the charity or sold in their shop in Coventry. You can find out more about the charity on their website. Anything which cannot be repaired and/or used again will be disposed of responsibly.

How to book

Please do not book a collection if you have suspected or confirmed coronavirus. Please put all items outside as far away from your house as possible without obstructing the pavement or road and please observe social distancing while the items are being collected.
