Recycling Centres across West Sussex will switch to extended spring/summer opening hours from 1 April 2024, giving residents more opportunity to recycle their household waste.
Residents need to make an appointment before visiting all West Sussex Recycling Centres. Slots are easy to book and can be made up to 14 days in advance or on the same day where available.
The spring/summer opening hours will remain in place until 30 September 2024 and will not be affected by bank holidays, including Easter Monday which falls on 1 April.
Cllr Deborah Urquhart, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Environment and Climate Change, said: “Ensuring our residents can recycle as much as possible in a cost effective way is an important element of our Council Plan. As we approach springtime and warmer weather our Recycling Centres are usually at their busiest. To help accommodate this, we are providing longer opening hours to give residents more opportunity to visit the sites.
“An added benefit of our ‘Book to Recycle’ system means residents will be able to easily see when their local site is open when making an appointment.”
From 1 April 2024, Recycling Centres will be open as follows:
- Billingshurst open 9am to 6pm every day except Thursday and Friday.
