Council's bulky waste collections to remain free as new provider confirmed

Liverpool Council will continue its free bulky waste collection after appointing a long-term successor to Bulky Bob’s.

After ending its more than two-decade partnership with the FRC Group last year, the city council has used Liverpool Streetscene Services (LSSL) to provide an interim service. Members of the authority’s new cabinet have now confirmed its wholly owned company will take on a £2.3m contract over the next four and a half years.

Liverpool Council had used Bulky Bob’s to collect and dispose of large furniture items for residents across the city since 2000. The partnership ended in October 2022 after the existing terms were deemed to no longer deliver best value.
