Purpose

East
Sussex County Council operate a chargeable waste service at
household waste recycling sites (HWRSs) for non-household waste
(rubble, soil, plasterboard, tyres, and asbestos). In June 2023,
Defra issued an update advising that they intend to limit councils
from charging for DIY type waste. We are seeking Lead
member’s approval to amend the Chargeable Waste scheme for it
to remain legally compliant should Government proceed with the
expected changes.
