There will be no garden waste collections between Monday 23 December and Sunday 5 January 2014. Garden waste, refuse and recycling collections will all return to normal from Monday 6 January 2013.
Residents with a real Christmas tree can recycle it in their garden waste bin as long as the lid can be closed firmly. Alternatively, the Council provides lots of sites where residents can drop off a tree for recycling. To see the details of dates and locations, go to www.midsussex.gov.uk/recycling. Sites are open between Friday 3 January and Friday 17 January 2014.
