For other items, such as furniture, Haringey Enterprise offers an individual bulky household waste collection for a fee of £16.48. As long as you live in Haringey you can request the service for a maximum of 6 items to be collected. The items will be collected from your front garden and taken away.
All electrical items can be taken to the council's two Reuse and Recycling Centres in Hornsey and Tottenham.
|Back to topConditions
As a general rule, anything that you might take with you when moving home can be collected. We make every effort to reuse or recycle as many items as possible.
We will not collect:
- Rubble
- Masonry and tiles
- Construction waste
- Waste from house renovations.
The service can be provided only to those homes that have a front garden area where large and bulky items can be placed out of harms way to those walking along pavements.
Leaving items on the pavement is not permitted in any circumstances because this poses risks to passers by.

Before you arrange this service you might want to check that your road is not due to get its free Community Clear Up soon. Once a year the Community Clear Ups Service comes to each street in Haringey and gives people the chance to put out their bulky rubbish to be collected for free.
Please contact Haringey Enterprise on Tel 020 8885 7700 to make arrangements for a Bulky Items Collection service.
Alternatively, it is now possible to apply for a Bulky Items Collection service online.
Bulky waste can also be taken to the Reuse and Recycling Centres in Park View Road, Tottenham, N17 and High Street, Hornsey, N8.
