What should be classified as bulky goods?

Bulky goods are items which, because of their weight and volume, are not collected by the household waste collection service (ref: Public Service).

  • small furniture (bedside table, chair, bed base, mattress, lamp, etc.)
  • household appliances (fridge, washing machine, microwave oven, toaster, etc.)
  • leisure (television, bicycle, barbecue, etc.)

PROSCRIBE

  • demolition rubble and materials (scrap wood, panelling, boards, metal rods, plasterboard, glass, tiles, doors, etc.)
  • cans (petrol, white spirit, toxic products, etc.), jars (paint, putty, glue, woodstain, etc.),
  • crates, cardboard packaging & polystyrene, etc…

You must take them to one of the waste collection centres.

Any deposit as part of the collections organized by the town hall must be reported in advance to the secretariat. Deposits are only permitted the day before the collection or, at the earliest, 48 hours prior.
