Waste collection in Truro
FRIDAY Our van is in the TR postcodes every Friday. Book it while it's passing.
Next Fridays:
If you live in Truro, your collection day is Friday. It has a rhythm to it: local dealers and housing officers know the van, repeat customers leave the garage unlocked, and first-timers are usually surprised the price on the website is the price on the day. It is. It includes VAT, disposal fees and all the carrying.
England recycles around 44 percent of household waste, a figure that has barely moved in a decade. The gap is not technology, it is logistics: bulky items do not fit recycling bins, so sofas and appliances end up landfilled while their timber, steel and foam are wanted by processors. A collected load, sorted properly, is how those numbers move.
Coverage note: mainland only — Isles of Scilly excluded. Email us if you are unsure and we will answer straight.
