Household Waste Collection Policy for Southern Buckinghamshire

The council offers all residents a chargeable bulky waste collection service, for the removal of a maximum of 3 large items of household waste, per charge. All items must be presented outside for collection by 06am (06:00) on the specified day of collection.

All items of waste must be left together as close as possible to the edge of the boundary of the property, as close to the highway or access road as possible, easily accessible for the crews and presented in a safe fashion which does not cause any obstruction or danger to the public.

Items will not be collected from inside houses or outbuildings, or from up steps. The collection point for properties with difficult access e.g. flats, shall be agreed with the Council before collection. If a site visit is needed to establish a collection point, this will be subject to additional fee. All larger items will be assessed and priced individually.

Cancellations must be requested within 2 working days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) prior to the booked collection date for a full refund. A refund will be made subject to an administration fee (view our current fees and charges). We reserve the right to not refund you if you do not inform us within the required period.

This service is for household waste only and no DIY, commercial or industrial waste will be collected.

We do not offer any discounts for the bulky collection service.
