Recycling changes - no more plastic bags.

Communications from Hastings District Council

From April 5 no more plastic bags of recycling will be picked up from the kerbside in Hastings.

With opaque supermarket bags no longer available, recycling is being put out at the kerb in thicker/dark bags. The collectors can’t see through the bags to check for rubbish or dangerous items. With 23,000 homes to visit, they can’t open and check each bag.

Help our district be awesome at recycling. Make sure it’s clean and put it in bins: Plastics (lids off, wash and squash) and aluminium/tin cans (wash); paper and cardboard (flatten); glass bottles and jars (wash).
