Rubbish and recycling collections from your home
There is no requirement to book a visit to a household waste recycling site until the booking system is introduced in early autumn 2025.
Please see our booking system FAQ for further information about the proposed changes.
Your rubbish, recycling and garden waste collection service from home is provided by your district or borough council (not ourselves at the County Council). This is whoever you pay your Council Tax to.
To contact your district or borough council about their service, please refer to their website:
- Hastings Borough Council – waste and recycling
- Lewes and Eastbourne Councils – bins, waste and recycling
- Rother District Council – rubbish and recycling
- Wealden District Council – recycling and waste
Their service includes:
- collection of rubbish, recycling and garden waste from your home, providing new bins, and dealing with missed collections
- rubbish collections of large bulky items such as furniture from your home
- litter and fly-tip clearance
- neighbourhood recycling points
Please note, we at the County Council are not responsible for rubbish and recycling collections from your home and so are unable to assist with any enquiries relating to your collection service.
