Improving recycling in Lewes district

We're looking at moving to fortnightly refuse collections to increase household recycling in the district. Find out more and give your feedback.

New and replacement bins

If your household waste bin or recycling equipment has been lost or damaged, or if you need an additional recycling bin, you can order a new using our online form.

Recycling bags are an alternative solution to some households that do not have space to store a bin, for example, they face a main street. They are only granted to certain households and need investigation and approval from our waste depot. To request recycling bags, whether this is a new request or for additional/replacement bags, please contact us

If the pavement is narrow outside your home and you have nowhere to store a bin, you can request a gull-proof bag for your refuse by emailing CustomerFirst@lewes-eastbourne.gov.uk

If you are signed up for garden waste collections and your bin has been lost or damaged, you will need to request a replacement or additional garden waste bin separately.

Rubbish must be bagged before being put in your wheelie bin.
