Recycling tips for West Sussex
WSCC Recycling Ambassador Colin McFarlin regularly shares his knowledge with the community on the tricky matter of recycling in our domestic blue bins. We, here at Hurst Life, will be collecting all his invaluable tips and tricks and displaying them here on this handy online guide. We aim to add a new recycling tip every month, so be sure to check back.

Important note: All items for recycling should be:
Clean - free from food and drink leftovers
Dry - keep your recycling bin lid shut
Loose - no plastic bags.
