Specialist waste services for East Sussex's hospitality, education, and professional services sectors across Eastbourne, Hastings, and Lewes.
One specialist partner for WEEE, batteries, lamps, solar panels and hazardous waste, with in-house treatment and full Duty of Care paperwork.
East Sussex's economy spans a significant tourism and hospitality sector, growing professional services, education, and healthcare. The county's coastal location and historic towns create particular waste management challenges around seasonal demand and access logistics.
The hospitality sector across Eastbourne, Hastings, Bexhill, and Rye generates high volumes of commercial lighting waste, portable batteries, and end-of-life catering and refrigeration equipment. Hotels, conference venues, and restaurants face seasonal waste peaks during summer and need flexible collection scheduling.
The University of Sussex (at the Brighton border) and the University of Brighton's Eastbourne campus generate regulated waste from science laboratories, creative technology facilities, and IT infrastructure. The East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust's hospitals across the county add medical equipment and healthcare IT disposal requirements.
Lewes and the surrounding area house professional services firms and public sector operations generating regular IT asset disposal requirements from hardware refresh cycles. East Sussex County Council and district councils across the area produce WEEE from building services and office equipment.
The county's rural areas include agricultural solar installations creating demand for PV panel recycling as earlier installations approach end-of-life. Understanding your obligations around these materials is important, and our duty of care guide covers the essentials.
We also cover Eastbourne, Brighton and Hove, and West Sussex.
