Glasgow City Council Suspend Bulk Uplift Service

By R McCall-Smith,

 

In order to focus resources on maintaining the uplift of general waste bins, Glasgow City Council has taken the decision to suspend the bulk uplift service from Monday 23 March 2020 until further notice.

The ability to report bulk uplift requests on the Council website and the My Glasgow App has been suspended and the customer call centre has ceased to accept calls from 12 noon today.

To minimise the impact of this, you will have the option of collecting bulk and disposing of this at one of Glasgow City Council’s disposal complexes free of charge.

Should you wish to take up this offer, you should contact the Neighbourhood Co-ordinator for your area by email (details below) advising that your organisation wish to dispose of bulk waste.  You are required to provide details of your contractor that is acting on your behalf and the complex you wish to use for disposal.

Once approved by the Neighbourhood Co-ordinator, your team should report to the complex main reception, provide identification and a waiver slip will be provided that will entitle them to dispose of waste.

A  message about the change to the service has been posted on the Council website and highlighted on social media.  There are currently no other planned changes to refuse collection, however should this position change we will keep you advised.

If you require any further clarification or information please do not hesitate to contact the Neighbourhood Liaison Co-ordinator for your area.  Contact details are listed below.
