Recycled To Date

Thanks to our partnership with ReAP UK, most beach litter can be recycled.

• Rope & net

• Rubber, including strips from lobster pots, goggles & snorkelling / diving masks, shoe soles, tennis and golf balls

• Plastic - both hard and soft

• Polystyrene

• Fishing line, tackle and weights

• Scrap metal

• Vapes

• Batteries

• Whole aluminium cans

• Dog toys

• Crisp packets

All rubbish is sorted before collection. You can either drop your rubbish at an address which can be emailed to you or ask for a collection. Remember, fishing line, tackle and weights can also be disposed of in one of our Pipe Bins [link to Pipe Bin page]

What happens to our beach litter afterwards?

• Fishing line, tackle and weights are collected by Anglers National Line Recycling Scheme.

• We clean all dog toys and donate them to RSPCA Mount Noddy in Eartham.

• Vapes and batteries are dropped at one of the many recycling points around Selsey (including Co-op and Asda)

• Whole aluminium cans are collected by Sidlesham Litter Pickers and scrapped for money which is then donated to St. Wilfrid’s Hospice.

• ReAP UK partner with ReFactory and take the rest.

• ReFactory specialise in making new products from material usually destined for waste.
