Price freeze to encourage green living
The Green Waste Club run by contractor Verdant for Arun District Council hopes the move will encourage all the 8,000 existing members to sign up for another year of fortnightly collections using their brown wheelie bins. Members who renew their membership online, or use direct debit, will again pay 54.62 for the coming year.
Those who renew by phone will be charged 60.
New members will face a 66.37 charge online or 71.75 by phone.
