Bulky waste collection for Upnor households and businesses

A conservation-area riverside village of cobbled lanes below Upnor Castle, opposite Chatham Historic Dockyard.

Listed cottages on a cobbled high street with larger period houses at Upper Upnor. That housing mix shapes how we work here: Cobbled conservation lanes at Upnor cannot take skips or large vehicles, so items are barrowed out to a van parked at the top of the hill.

Our crews reach Upnor via Upnor Road, A289, A228, and we work regularly across Lower Upnor, Upper Upnor. 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.
