Bulky Waste Collection
If you are a main door tenant and require a bulky waste collection, you can contact Glasgow City Council on 0141 287 9700 on Tuesday and Wednesday between 9am - 3pm to place a request. This is a chargeable service and more information can be found on Glasgow City Council's website Bulky Waste Collection .
Wheelie Bin Cleaning
If you are a main door tenant, your general waste wheelie bin is cleaned by our contractor quarterly. The cleaning dates are scheduled in-line with the collection days by Glasgow City Council which are normally a Tuesday. It isn't always possible to have the clean fully complete on the same day. This means the cleaning may run into the following day, we would ask tenants to re-present your bins on the pavement if your bin hasn't been cleaned on collection day.
The cleaning dates for 2026 are detailed below:
24th February 2026
19th May 2026
11th August 2026
24th November 2026
