Drop off unwanted and bulky items for free, with our new Pop-up Waste Drop visits around the borough.
This is a new mobile waste collection service for Hillingdon residents to conveniently drop-off unwanted and bulky items for free, without the need to visit a waste and recycling centre.
To use the service, residents will need proof of address or a Hillingdon First card and will need to be able to carry their items to the waste drop themselves.
Our Pop-up Waste Drop truck will visit other locations around the borough every 2 weeks.
