POPS Waste vs General Waste vs WEEE Waste: What’s the Difference?

When it comes to waste removal, it’s important to know that not all waste is the same. Different types of waste have varying costs and disposal requirements. At Leicester Moving Company, we aim to make waste removal as easy and affordable as possible. Below, we explain the differences between POPS waste, General waste, and WEEE waste to help you better understand how each type is handled and priced.

POPS Waste (Bulky & Special Items)

POPS waste, also known as Prohibited or Non-Standard Items, refers to large, bulky, and often difficult-to-dispose-of items. These include large furniture pieces like sofas, mattresses, and wardrobes, as well as other oversized household items that require special handling and often need to be dismantled.

Common POPS Items:
  • Sofas and armchairs

  • Mattresses

  • Large furniture (wardrobes, dining tables)

  • Bed frames and large home appliances

​​

Why POPS Waste Costs More:

POPS waste typically requires more manpower to remove, specialized vehicles (like a Luton van), and additional disposal fees. This makes it more expensive than general waste or smaller items. Expect a higher fee due to the extra labour and tip fees associated with disposing of bulky furniture.

General Waste (Everyday Household Items)

General waste refers to your standard household waste: the everyday items we all throw away. This can include food packaging, newspapers, household waste, and smaller, non-hazardous items.

Common General Waste Items:
  • Packaging (cardboard, plastic)

  • Household trash (bottles, cans, paper)

  • Old clothes and shoes

  • Small furniture and items in disrepair

Why General Waste Costs Less:

General waste is easier to handle compared to bulky POPS items. It typically fits into regular collection vehicles and doesn’t require any special handling, which is why the removal costs are lower. Pricing is typically based on the amount of waste (in kg or cubic metres) and whether or not the waste needs sorting.

WEEE Waste (Electrical & Electronic Equipment)

WEEE stands for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. This type of waste includes electronic goods and electrical appliances that have reached the end of their useful life and are no longer functioning or needed.

Common WEEE Waste Items:
  • Old televisions

  • Broken computers, laptops, and phones

  • Kitchen appliances (fridges, microwaves)

  • Washing machines and dryers

  • Small electronic devices (radios, toasters, etc.)

Why WEEE Waste Requires Special Attention:

WEEE waste is often regulated because it can contain hazardous substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium. It requires specialised disposal methods and often needs to be recycled in accordance with environmental regulations. This makes WEEE disposal more expensive than general waste. Transportation fees and recycling charges can also add to the overall cost.
