Defra does not collect information on the number of bulky household waste collections in England.

However, Defra does collect data on the tonnages of bulky household residual waste and bulky items of household recycling collected from the kerbside.

This information is published as part of Local Authority waste management statistics, available here: WasteDataFlow - Local Authority waste management on data.gov.uk
