Garden Waste Kerbside Collection:

If residents live in an area where the Green Bin Composting Service operates, for £35 per annum they can have garden cuttings collected in a green wheeled bin, which is turned into compost.

In areas where the Green Bin Composting Service does not operate residents can dispose of small amounts of garden waste using a Chichester District Council garden waste sack. The sacks cost 89p each and once full, residents place the sacks out with their black general waste bin for collection.
