Bulky Waste Collection Service

Collections are arranged through Melton Borough Council.

In Melton Mowbray, collections are made on Mondays.
Outside Melton Mowbray and within Melton Borough, collections are made on Tuesdays.
Collections are not made on public holidays, and collections that would have happened on these days are made a week later.

Telephone: Call MBC Customer Services on 01664 502502, and make sure you have payment details ready.
Online: Visit our Secure Payment pages, then select "Waste Collection" as the service and "Bulky Household Items" as the item. See below for the correct charge for collection of your items, and whether they are items we collect. Your collection will take place on the following Monday if you live in Melton Mowbray or the following Tuesday if you live outside Melton Mowbray but within Melton Borough, unless it is a public holiday, when the collection will take place a week later.

When a collection is arranged, you will be given a date that the collection will take place. The collection may occur any time between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. If your collection is not made there could be several reasons. If your items are not accessible for collection between the times stated, our crew will not revisit to collect, and an additional booking of the item(s) will need to be made.
The crew will only collect the items that were described by the customer when the collectiobn was arranged and paid for. Any items that are not listed will not be collected.
MBC Customer Service representatives advise on individual circumstances when collections are arranged. In general, items for collection should be left outside the property, in a place that is easily accessible by our crew. If the items are behind a gate, remember to leave the gate unlocked on the day of collection.
