The next bulky waste service is scheduled for Saturday, July 19, 2025.
This service offers a convenient way for individuals to declutter their homes or garages by disposing of unwanted items safely and responsibly. However, it’s essential to be aware of the prohibited items, such as Ash, Soil, Bricks, Rubble, Stone, Gravel, Concrete, Car Parts, Engine Oil & Parts, Sand or Paint and UPVC products, which cannot be accepted.
Residents must accompany their discarded items to any of the six designated sites across Bretton at the allotted time slots and remain until they have been correctly disposed of. Leaving Bulky Items unattended will be deemed illegal fly-tipping and could result in prosecution with a payable fine.
Therefore, we urge you to follow and obey the rules associated with the Bulky Waste Process as stated above, ensuring a smooth and efficient service for all.
PLEASE NOTE – Important details regarding the Heltwate Site:
Heltwate School, an integral part of our community, will host a summer fair on Saturday, July 19, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Your participation and support in this event are greatly appreciated.
We recognise that this may cause some inconvenience, but your safety is our top priority. The summer fair coincides with the scheduled bulky waste collection on the same day.
As a result, Bretton Parish Council has decided to suspend the bulky waste collection at the Heltwate site only due to health and safety concerns.
These concerns arise from the fact that the designated collection point is located directly in front of the school, and the increased foot traffic and activities during the fair could pose a risk to both the attendees and the waste collection team.
Due to these circumstances, as an alternative, the refuse vehicles will now extend their time at the Pyramid site until 3:00 PM, ensuring waste collection proceeds uninterrupted during the event.
Bretton Parish Council, thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Bretton Parish Council
