Bulk Uplift
The Associations contractor Total Homes Co-operative will now be providing a bulk service to tenants. Here’s the important details that you need to know about the service:
Weekly bulk uplifts will be carried out at the following closes:
All items should be placed in backcourt areas on a Sunday night for collection on a Monday morning. Any items which are not classified as bulk will not be picked up by Total Homes and should be disposed of appropriately in Green/Blue bins.
Tenants who have their own garden will receive two free bulk uplifts per year. This must be done by request to the Association and will be limited to 25 items per uplift, items should be kept within your property until your arranged pick up date.
Total Homes will only be lifting bulk items which can be recycled. Bulk items are classified as the following:
Sofa Bed frame/Mattresses Dining table/chairs
Items which are not classified as bulk and should be disposed of within your green/blue/brown bins or charity shops are:
Cardboard/cardboard boxes Paint tubs Bags of clothes

The Association strongly encourages tenants who can access the dump at Queenslie Recycling Centre to do this where possible to minimise bulk/rubbish and keep Ruchazie clean, tidy and a welcoming place for all.
Weekly visits to each property will be carried out to ensure that tenants are complying with the terms of their tenancy agreement. We hope that you will ALL work with us to keep our estate clean and tidy.
