Bulky Bob’s was created in 2000 by FRC Group, a Liverpool and Manchester social enterprise and charity.

Fresh Start Waste work with thousands of businesses across the region, many of whom have furniture items which are being replaced but are in excellent condition, fit for reuse. Bulky Bob’s provide an outlet for these items to be cleaned, basic repairs made, and passed onto families most in need across Liverpool and Manchester.

As part of our commitment to moving our customer’s up the waste hierarchy, working with Bulky Bob’s means essential furniture items they no longer require can be put to good use and help someone in desperate need of furniture.
