Can I recycle it?
Sideboards are not collected as part of your kerbside recycling collection.
Wood & timber sideboards can be taken to any Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC).
Mixed material sideboards can be taken to any HWRC except Dudnance Lane, Pool.
Bulky waste collection
You can use our household bulky waste collection service for items that are too big for normal collections.
There is a charge for this service.
Useful information
If your sideboard is still usable you could consider selling it, passing it on or donating it.
