Local options for Sussex
Useful answers, local options and the details to check.
Are West Sussex and East Sussex disposal rules the same?
No. They have separate county recycling services and district or borough bulky collections. West Sussex uses Book to Recycle; East Sussex also requires a booked recycling-site visit. Check the correct county and site for your address.
Official guidance: West Sussex County Council: Book to Recycle · East Sussex County Council: booking and site rules
Can a business use an East Sussex household tip?
No: East Sussex says trade and business waste is prohibited at its household sites, including waste from professional gardeners and landlords. A commercial receiving route must be arranged instead.

Which council handles East Grinstead bulky waste?
Mid Sussex District Council is the relevant bulky-waste authority for East Grinstead. Its household scheme does not provide full house clearances or collect business waste; inspect the item list before booking.

Can I put garden cuttings into a Mid Sussex bulky booking?
No. Mid Sussex’s bulky service excludes garden waste. Compare the council’s garden service or recycling options with a separately assessed garden clearance.

How do I check Shift It coverage in Sussex?
Send your full postcode and load rather than only a county name. Route suitability and an agreed collection slot are confirmed for the actual address; this page does not promise every Sussex address a same-day visit.
Private collection: what is agreed?
For a Sussex collection, provide the full address and explain whether the job is a small item, a mixed household load or dense landscaping waste. Coastal and inland addresses are not interchangeable for route planning. Give a realistic deadline and wait for a confirmed slot before arranging access around it.
We travel to the agreed address. Send the postcode, item photos, access route and preferred timing; no town branch, completed local job or guaranteed same-day slot is implied.

Local planning
Before the visit
Can you collect at my address in Sussex?
Send the full postcode and load details. The team confirms route suitability, access and the earliest agreed collection date. A town name or postcode district alone is not a confirmed booking.
Can items be carried from inside the property?
Subject to safe access and the agreed quote. Tell us the floor level, lift access, stairs and the distance to legal loading. You do not need to move a heavy item alone just to request a quote.
Is there a fixed local price?
No universal town price is claimed. The load, weight, waste type, carrying and access determine the quote. Send photographs for the actual job.
