Lewes District Council – Refuse Collection Changes

/in /by
Lewes District Council is looking at moving to fortnightly refuse (black sack waste) collections from November 2025, to increase household recycling in the district.
Recycling collections would stay fortnightly and food waste collections would stay weekly. This system is called ‘Alternate Weekly Collections’ and would apply to most properties in the district.
Lewes District Council is inviting feedback on the proposals via the survey, which is available at: lewes-eastbourne.gov.uk/AWC
