Some sites require pre-booking to visit a Recycling Centre using the Book to Recycle system and West Sussex County Council is reminding residents to check their website beforehand.
Deborah Urquhart, County Council Cabinet Member for Environment and Climate Change said:
“Each year, the start of summer sees a surge in demand for our Recycling Centres as more people take advantage of the warmer weather and have a clear-out or spruce up their gardens.
“Our Book to Recycle system is in place at our busiest sites, meaning demand is evened out during the day to minimise queuing and to do the right thing with recycling and waste without delay. Feedback from customers tells us the system makes the whole process easier and faster, especially when recycling large amounts.
“Booking a slot takes less than 60 seconds and we’ve just introduced same day appointments at sites for those wanting to make an impromptu visit to their local Recycling Centre.
“All the details are available on our website, and I encourage everyone to take a look.”
