Council plan to charge for bulky waste collection

We understand that Leeds City Council will be introducing charging for the collection of ‘bulky waste’ from 9th May. The fee will be a flat rate of £20.

This is a significant concern in Headingley and Hyde Park, where sofas left in front gardens are already a persistent problem. That situation is hardly going to be improved by bringing an end to the free removal service.

The image below shows a list of Re-Use Providers in the city who will collect your unwanted furniture and ‘white goods’.

Taking your goods to the nearest Recycling Centre (Kirkstall or Meanwood Road) yourself will also continue to be free.
