The time it takes for Taskers to render this service depends on the number of bulky items to be removed and the complexity of accomplishing this. If you have only one bulky item to be disposed of like an old sofa, this can take less than an hour. Should you need several bulky items like furniture and white goods removed, expect this to take a full day’s work.
Absolutely! If you run a bulky waste collection service, you can hire Taskers as extra hands if you get more jobs than you can handle.

Bulky waste refers to the type of rubbish that you may find challenging to donate or sell, and cannot simply toss in the skip. There are many items in your home that can be considered “bulky waste” after they’ve become old or unusable. This can include broken-down white goods, damaged or non-working laundromats or dishwashers, old pianos, old bicycles, or even all the old tiles and floorings of your home.
You can do some bulky waste collection and disposal jobs yourself as long as you have the means and experience with lifting very heavy weights. Remember that some bulky items can weigh a tonne (like old refrigerators), so unless you have a hefty lorry to cart it off, we don’t recommend it as you can potentially injure yourself.
What do bulky waste collection services include?
Bulky waste collection services include disconnecting, moving out and disposing of large items which are too big to toss into the council bin and can’t be sold or are difficult to donate. These items are what you would usually get rid of after demolishing an old home or building or doing a renovation project.
This job can include laborious tasks like removing old freezers or fridges, old dishwashers, sofas and other furniture, white goods and rubbish disposal. Some bulky waste collection specialists may offer to disassemble some items if necessary and retrieve them from a higher floor or basement for disposal.
Taking the bulky waste out
Bulky waste like old sofas and other furniture, worn dishwashers and washing machines can be challenging to move. While most hired bulky waste removal services will do large item removal, they don’t bring it out and make them ready for transport. Some bulky waste removal specialists can take these items down from the upper floors of your home or building, detach them from walls or cabinets and place them outside. Note that this may cost extra.
Sorting the waste
Your hired specialists can sort out the bulky waste once the bulky waste removal is completed. They may organise and arrange each of the bulky waste items according to their type and to which place they can be taken. White goods, your old sofa, old furniture, freezers, refrigerators, dishwashers and other bulky items are segregated and readied for transport.
Specialists determine which items can be disposed of at recycling facilities, landfills, or any charities that you suggest. You can order some items to be taken to your preferred charity but coordinate with your charity beforehand to make sure they will accept the items. If you do not have a suggested charity, the specialists may take some of the still-usable things to one they know will accept them.
Preparing for disposal
After all the bulky waste items have been sorted and designated for the landfill, recycling facility or charity, specialists proceed to load them onto the appropriate delivery vehicle (vans or trucks, depending on the volume and type of bulk waste). Bulky waste collection specialists can ensure that the items are carefully loaded to minimise residual dust or debris and minimise damage to any items headed for charity.
Transporting bulky waste
Finally, specialists can cart these items off your property. Some specialists may offer to do post-disposal cleanup if any rubbish is left from the sorting and disposal process, but this may cost extra. Once all the bulky waste has been secured, specialists will take them off your property and drive to the nearest recycling facility. The destination can be local charities or landfills, depending on your agreement.
