Rubbish – All Household Waste Recycling Sites (HWRS) across West Sussex are now closed until further notice. At present, household waste collections continue as normal. The Government has issued advice about disposing of rubbish should you have a confirmed or suspected case of Covid-19 in your household. Used tissues and disposable cleaning cloths should be put into a rubbish bag. The bag should then be put into a second bag and tied securely. You should then wait 72 hours before putting it in your outside bin. You are able to dispose of other household waste as normal.
Parking – Chichester District Council have suspended charges across their car parks in the district for three next weeks.
