Dispose of bulky waste

You have furnishings (furniture, etc.) that do not fit into the residual waste garbage can or the Bremen garbage bag because of their size? Then you can order a bulky waste collection or deliver the bulky waste to a recycling station.

The Bremer Stadtreinigung (DBS) offers all private households the opportunity to have bulky waste collected free of charge once a calendar year. This service is included in the waste fee. Further collections are possible for a fee of 71.00 euros per collection.

Each household must place a separate order. If you want to use the collection service together with your neighbor, each party must place a separate order.
