Introducing 1-2-3 waste collection
We’re proud to be first council in West Sussex to roll out food waste recycling across the district.
From Monday 3rd November, bin collections for people who live in Mid Sussex will include new weekly food waste collections.
By separating your food waste, you’ll help reduce the volume of general waste produced across the district, and enable green energy to be created by food waste processing. Find out more about 1-2-3 at https://www.midsussex.gov.uk/waste-recycling/1-2-3-waste-collection/
To celebrate the launch, we’re excited to showcase some exceptional local goods and produce from suppliers in Mid Sussex. Supporting our local businesses, suppliers and producers means that you’re helping both the economy and the environment here in Mid Sussex.
By introducing food waste recycling, we're enabling a cleaner and greener future for our community.
Every household is automatically entered, excluding Mid Sussex District Council employees, Councillors and Serco staff. Open to residents aged 18 and over.
