Access rules and limitations

  • Items must be left outside the property for collection
  • No maximum item count stated on the page checked
  • Third-party reports found via web search this week (not the council's own page) suggest new bulky waste bookings were temporarily paused from around 28 August 2026, with existing bookings honoured while the council worked to restart the service in September 2026; this could not be confirmed directly on cheshireeast.gov.uk this week and should be checked before relying on it

If you cannot move the items yourself: Residents unable to leave items outside their property can ask on the booking form for items to be collected from within the property

Kerbside-only rules are the norm across the UK; crews are not insured to enter your home. If nobody can get your items outside, see your options when you can't lift it.

No lifting at all with WasteSpeed: a two-person crew carry from any room of the house, on your area's route day each week, from £199. Book online →

The £50.84 / £101.68 charges are unchanged from the last check. However, web search this week turned up secondary (non-council) reports that Cheshire East temporarily suspended new bulky waste bookings from around 28 August 2026, honouring existing bookings while working to restart the service in September. This could not be verified directly against the council's own page in this environment (direct fetch to council domains is blocked), so it is flagged here rather than treated as confirmed fact. Priority recheck recommended next cycle to confirm whether the service has resumed and whether prices changed.
