RECYCLING HUB IN CUCKFIELD

A partnership project between Greener Cuckfield and Cuckfield Parish Council with funding from The Cuckfield Society.

Making it easier for local residents to recycle more of their waste. See below for details on what we accept at The Queens Hall. All items for recycling must be CLEAN, DRY and LOOSE. Please clean and dry them before you drop them off, as otherwise they will contaminate other items in the bin and we will have to throw the contents away.

WHAT WE DO WITH YOUR SOFT PLASTIC

We take the soft plastic we collect to the local Co-op Food shop at Whitemans Green. It is then sent within the UK to be processed and turned into new plastic products, such as playground equipment, watering cans and dustbins.
