Start with the Leeds household options
Leeds City Council offers one free bulky collection per household per financial year, with further collections charged. Households receiving council tax support can qualify for up to four free collections. Slots can be limited, so check eligibility, accepted items and available dates before planning around this option.

Another route to consider
For DIY waste, Leeds publishes limits on the amount accepted free at its recycling centres. Check the current limits and origin of the waste before loading a vehicle; trade waste and a household DIY visit are different arrangements.

What to tell a private collector
- Tell the collector about communal entrances, lift bookings and loading restrictions.
- List reusable furniture before deciding which items are waste.
- For a shop, office or rental-property business, use the business account and identify the waste producer.
Compare offers for your actual job
Add clear photos, quantities, the collection address and preferred dates. Eligible collectors choose whether to bid. Compare their total price, collection window, profile and exclusions; the lowest bid does not win automatically.
Choose the offer that suits you and review all details before paying. Your dashboard keeps the confirmed booking, updates, completion evidence and available collection records together.
Choose the right starting point
- Furniture removal
- House and garage clearance
- Business and office clearance
- Suspected hazardous materials
