The streets set for free collections in Hull's Bricknell on 'Bring Out Your Rubbish Day'

The 20 streets set for free bulky waste collections in Hull's Bricknell ward have been named.

The streets in the west Hull ward are set to have bulky waste collected for free on a 'Bring Out Your Rubbish Day' on Saturday, May 18. Labour Bricknell councillor Peter North said the much-loved event would help those who are looking to have a spring clear out get rid of their rubbish and waste.

It comes after Hull City Council agreed to move £4,282 between Bricknell ward budgets to allow the event to be held. All Hull households are entitled to one free bulky waste collection of up to five items a year, with pick-ups after that costing at least £29.

Bring Out Your Rubbish Days allow people to leave their waste out on a designated day for collection without having to book in advance. A council decision record stated the days helped to improve local environments and reduce unwanted waste dumping. It stated: "These events allow residents to get rid of rubbish they have accumulated often over many years."

Cllr North said the event was the third held in Bricknell since 2021 and was back by popular demand. The ward councillor said: "People love the opportunity to have a clear out in Spring, and these events make it so easy.

"Fly-tipping is very low in this area, but these events help keep it that way. We’ll continue to organise them in different areas of Bricknell every time because they’re so well loved."

The Bring Out Your Rubbish Day in Bricknell follows funding to hold four in east Hull's Southcoates ward. Others were put on in Ings, also in east Hull, as part of wider efforts to crack down on fires being lit in the ward's Grasby Park area.
