What bulky waste collection means
Bulky waste is any household item too large for a wheelie bin — appliances, garden furniture, exercise equipment, sheds, hot tubs and large electricals — collected as individual items rather than as a full van load.
Not every job is a van load. Sometimes it is one exercise bike, one American fridge freezer or one hot tub that has been sitting on the patio since 2020. Bulky waste collections are priced per item so you are not paying for van space you do not use.
District councils across Kent do run bulky waste rounds, and for some households the price is right. What they will not do is come inside, take it off the decking, dismantle it or turn up today. That is the gap this service fills.
