The Council's Cleansing Service is responsible for the collection of household and commercial waste for recycling or disposal. We collect from over 52,000 households and commercial waste from over 2900 premises. We will also uplift large or awkward objects for you for a small charge.

Alternatively you can take your household waste for recycling or disposal to a Community Recycling Centre, Recycling Point or Temporary Waste Disposal facility yourself.

Please note that there is a charge for some of the services described above. Where this is the case, you can find out how much it will cost by seeing our current Fees and Charges that cover all chargeable services offered by the Technical Services Department.
