What the council can do
Salford's council bulky collection takes up to four items from £52.50, usually on a Saturday 7 to 14 days after booking. The council lists clearing a residential dwelling as needing a separate quote. Car loads of household waste can go to the Salford tips, and vans need a free permit applied for 2 working days ahead.
