Worthing Borough Council covers the West Sussex coastal town, sharing its waste service with neighbouring Adur. Refuse and recycling alternate fortnightly. Note there is no separate food waste collection yet — food currently goes in the general-waste bin.
With the black and blue-lidded bins alternating fortnightly and a paid garden bin, Worthing's schedule is easy to muddle. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection so the right bin goes out. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime. This information was correct at the time of writing; the council has proposals to change its collection schedule currently under review, so your service may be updated in future.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Worthing. You can also check the council's own page at adur-worthing.gov.uk.
Worthing collects the black general-waste bin (dark grey or black lid) and the blue-lidded recycling bin on alternating fortnightly weeks. The blue-lidded bin takes paper, card, plastic bottles, pots, tubs, trays, cans and glass. There is no separate food waste collection yet — food currently goes in the general-waste bin, though a weekly service is expected under Simpler Recycling. Garden waste is a paid subscription collected fortnightly. West Sussex County Council handles disposal.
My Bin Day is 99p a month — less than a coffee a year. Cancel any time by replying STOP to a reminder and you won't be charged again.
Yes. We track Worthing's published schedule, including the shifts that bank holidays and seasonal changes cause, so your reminder always reflects the real collection date.
No — My Bin Day is an independent service and is not affiliated with Worthing or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
Enter your address, choose SMS reminders, done. 99p a month, cancel any time.
