Saturday Waste Collection
The Saturday bulky waste service is provided for the disposal of household waste, including bulky items. In this service you can take your waste to a parked refuse freighter at a number of locations across the borough.
Please note that the schedule runs on a 4-week cycle. When a month has five Saturdays, the service is not normally run on the fifth Saturday, apart from after Easter & Christmas Bank Holidays.
There is a TMBC Bulky Waste Collection in the layby in Fen Pond Road (opposite the Church) and one in Borough Green in the Dene Lodge In Car Park.
