Pop-up Waste Drop

Graphic illustrating our Pop-up Waste Drop

Drop off unwanted and bulky items for free, with our 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.

Please note: Vans and commercial vehicles will not be able to use the service.
