Recolha de Monos: Câmara Municipal de Lisboa
The council collects bulky household items, furniture, mattresses, large appliances, from the street outside your building, free, once you have booked a slot.
Right for you if
- The item is too big for a normal bin and you cannot move it far.
- It has to cost nothing.
- You cannot move it yourself. They come and collect.
Look elsewhere if
- It is one small thing you could drop off yourself.
- It is business waste.
- You need it gone today.

Where your things go
A named destination is worth more than a stated intention, and both are worth more than silence. This is the row to read before you book: if your item's row is empty, ask them on the phone and tell us what they say.

Does it actually work
The part no company website tells you. Some of this comes from our checks, some from readers who used the service, and where nobody has told us yet, it says so.
