Booking and residency

Everyone must book before visiting an East Sussex household waste recycling site. Have your booking confirmation available and bring proof of address, as staff may request it. Visitors from outside the East Sussex County Council area normally pay £8.75 per visit. Check the council’s exceptions if you are helping an East Sussex resident dispose of their household waste.

Vehicles, walking and cycling

Vehicle and trailer restrictions differ between sites. Check your chosen site before booking, especially if using a van or trailer. Bring the paperwork for a hired vehicle. Walking or cycling access is available only at permitted sites and also requires a booking; do not assume you can park nearby and carry waste in.

DIY waste and special materials

Qualifying household DIY waste has a limited free allowance, with charges above it. Asbestos, tyres and some other materials have separate restrictions or charges and are accepted only at designated sites. Business and trade waste cannot use the household service.
