Our new return to reuse equipment pilot scheme to collect unused equipment and daily living aids that have been provided by Blackpool Equipment Service.

The scheme aims to give residents a few ways of returning the items they no longer use so they can be restored and then reused helping minimise waste.

The items that can be dropped off are:

  • Indoor walking aids e.g. dining trolley
  • Seating
  • Toilet/bathroom aids
  • Bed rails
  • Pressures aids

Unfortunately we can’t accept any electrical or powered items or anything that has been hired.

Please see a full list of items that we accept

How to donate equipment

Residents can drop their items off:

  • At the ‘Tip Shop’ seven days a week between 11.00am and 3.00pm at the Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC), Bristol Avenue, Bispham
  • Through a Rover collection. The mobile tip operates Monday to Friday across Blackpool
  • If you are unable to access the Tip or Rover or are unsure what items can be accepted contact Blackpool Equipment Service on 01253 476667 or email: equipment@bch.co.uk
