Opt-In
Opt-In is our call out recycling service available to all residents of Brighton, Hove and Portslade based on a credit system.
You pay £20 up front, we provide you with net sacks slightly smaller than a black bin bag and when you have filled up 2 or more bags with sepatarate recyclable materials, we come and pick them up.
Opt-in can be as regular or irregular as you like, your credit account will be debited by £2 per bag collected.
This is ideal for green minded people who don't live on our GreenBox round and still want to recycle more than the council takes.
You can recycle all the materials that goes in to the GreenBox. Check the list here.
