Chichester District Council Refuse and Recycling Service.

In March the new collection system began and every household has been issued with two collection bins – black for general waste and burgundy for recyclable materials.

With the delivery of the wheelie bins, an information pack was also provided. The pack gives details of what materials can be collected for recycling and most importantly, a calendar of when your rubbish will be collected.

Waste Minimisation - How you can help

Waste Minimisation Strategy

Garden Waste

If you are not composting, small amounts of Garden Waste will be taken by the dustmen but only if left out in the District Council marked green garden waste sacks. These are available from Loxwood Post Office.

From time to time Chichester District Council, working in partnership with West Sussex County Council operate a Home Composting Promotion Scheme and offer Home Composting Units at reduced prices.

And Taking Recycling to the Edge...

Norman Baker (Lewes): While we are considering innovative recycling, may I tell the Honourable Lady that I have a constituent who had a couple of gallstones removed and has had them made into very attractive earrings. (Hansard 14 th March 2003: Column 537)
