Collections for large items

If you have good quality furniture, TVs, computers, white goods (fridges and freezers) please consider donating it to a local reuse scheme. This is a better option than throwing it away and someone else gets to benefit from it. Click the links below for further information.

The Freecycle Network is a non-profit community gifting movement made up of thousands of entirely local and individual city groups that promote reuse through local gifting among their members. Members have the opportunity to give and get items for free, in an effort to keep unnecessary waste being thrown away.

The Furniture Reuse Network is the national body which supports, assists and develops charitable re-use organisations across the UK. They help to reduce poverty by helping households in need access furniture, white goods and other household items at affordable prices.

If your waste is not suitable for reuse you can take it to a household waste recycling centre for free. Alternatively, Broxbourne Services can collect these items at a cost.

If you have employed a contractor such as a builder or a plumber to carry out work in your home, make sure they remove any waste generated.
