What is bulk waste collection

Bulk waste collection is the removal of large or heavy items that do not fit in normal household bins or trade waste bins. Typical examples include furniture, white goods, large volumes of bagged or loose waste and DIY materials in sensible quantities. It covers one off clear outs, end of tenancy loads, renovation projects and office moves where items need to be taken from inside the property and handled safely.

Councils sometimes offer limited bulky waste collections, but these are usually restricted to a small number of items, have set waiting times and may exclude certain materials. A professional service fills the gap with faster booking, more flexibility and full documentation.

What we collect

🪑 Furniture

Sofas, armchairs, wardrobes, beds, tables, chairs and mattresses. Items are protected and moved carefully through doorways.

🔌 Appliances and WEEE

Fridges, freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers, cookers, TVs and small electrics routed via licensed facilities.

📦 Bagged and loose waste

Black bags, packaging, mixed recycling, loft and shed clear outs, garage and garden overflow.

🧱 DIY and renovation waste

Timber, doors, kitchen units, bathroom fittings and small amounts of rubble that are safe to handle and load.

Good quality items can be donated with your approval. We prioritise reuse to reduce disposal costs and environmental impact.

“We recently upgraded our entire IT infrastructure and needed all the old server racks, desks, and tangled miles of cabling cleared out. North Somerset Clearance were brilliant from start to finish — they arrived exactly when promised, worked quietly so our team could keep going, and had everything loaded and gone in just a few hours. They even swept the floor afterwards, leaving the space ready for our new setup. I can’t recommend them enough for any business needing a fast, professional clearance service.”

“ North Somerset Clearance were brilliant from start to finish. We had an entire floor of office furniture, desks, chairs, filing cabinets and various electronics that needed to be removed as our company switched to home working. The team turned up on time, worked quickly without disrupting the rest of the building, and left the space spotless. Everything was handled professionally, and they even arranged for recycling where possible. Couldn’t recommend them enough, they made what could have been a stressful day completely hassle-free.”

Case study: end of tenancy in Clevedon

A landlord required bulk waste collection between tenants. We surveyed from photos and scheduled a two person team. Items included a sofa, a mattress, a broken wardrobe and eight bags of waste. Reusable items were donated and the rest was separated for recycling. The flat was swept and the transfer note was issued the same day.

Case study: renovation clear out in South Bristol

A homeowner was refitting a kitchen and needed bulky waste removed over two visits. We cleared units, worktops and a small quantity of tiles and plasterboard, then returned for appliances. Access was through the side gate. Loads were split by material to keep costs down and disposal compliant.

Items that require specialist handling

Some materials sit outside a standard bulk waste collection. If these are present, we will advise safe, legal options.

  • Asbestos, significant clinical waste or hazardous chemicals
  • Fuel, gas bottles, oils and solvent paints
  • Very heavy rubble or soil beyond safe manual handling limits
