Your Questions About Private Bin Collection in Selsey

Chichester District Council is implementing fortnightly general waste collections across the district, including Selsey, as part of a broader effort to increase recycling rates and reduce waste sent to landfills. Weekly food waste collections are still in place. The council aims to encourage residents to be more mindful of their waste disposal habits and maximize the use of recycling facilities.

Council tax levels are determined by a variety of factors, not solely waste collection services. While the frequency of general waste collection is changing, the council is investing in other waste management initiatives, such as enhanced recycling programs and food waste collections. Any potential changes to council tax are determined separately from these operational adjustments.

To prepare for the switch, Selsey residents can focus on maximizing their recycling efforts by using the blue bin for paper, cardboard, and plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays. Food waste should be disposed of in the dedicated food waste caddy for weekly collection. Consider composting organic waste where possible, and ensure that you are familiar with Chichester District Council's guidelines for waste disposal. If you find that fortnightly collections are still insufficient, Selsey Private Bins can supplement your needs.

Our pricing starts from £38 for a one-off collection. Our Family Plan (twice a month) is £25 per month, working out at about £6.70 per week for a weekly collection. We believe this offers excellent value for a reliable and convenient service, especially when compared to the inconvenience of overflowing bins.

Your council tax contributes to a wide range of essential services, including waste collection. However, with the move to fortnightly collections, some households in Selsey may find they need additional capacity. Our service provides that extra convenience, ensuring your waste is managed effectively without overflowing bins. Think of it as an investment in your home's hygiene and kerb appeal.
