How bin collections work in Adur and Worthing
Like most UK local authorities, Adur and Worthing Councils runs separate collections for different types of household waste. Which bins are collected — and how often — varies from street to street, so the most reliable way to find your schedule is to check it against your exact address. Enter your postcode above to see your next Adur and Worthing collection dates.
Across much of the UK, general (non-recyclable) waste and mixed recycling are collected on alternating weeks, food waste is often collected weekly, and garden waste is usually collected fortnightly during the growing season. Every council sets its own rounds, though, so use the checker to confirm the pattern that actually applies to your home rather than relying on the typical schedule.

What to do if your bin was missed
If Adur and Worthing Councils misses your collection, a few quick steps usually get it sorted:
- 1 Check it was actually due. Confirm your collection day for the bin in question — it's easy to mix up which week is which.
- 2 Leave the bin out. Crews often come back within a day or two to collect a genuinely missed bin.
- 3 Report it to the council. Most councils have an online “report a missed collection” form and ask you to use it within one or two working days.
- 4 Check your presentation. Make sure the bin was out by the required time (often 6–7am), lid closed, and not blocked by cars or parked too far from the kerb.

Do Adur and Worthing bin collections change on bank holidays?

BinMinder applies the bank-holiday adjustment your council has published wherever possible, so your reminders reflect the revised dates rather than the normal schedule.
What time should bins be out in Adur and Worthing?
Most councils, including Adur and Worthing Councils, ask for bins to be at the kerbside by 6–7am on collection day. Crews can arrive earlier than usual, so the safest habit is putting bins out the evening before — which is exactly when BinMinder sends your reminder.
Does Adur and Worthing charge for garden waste collection?

UK council fees are set for the financial year and change on 1 April, and many councils pause garden waste collections over winter, so check the sign-up page for the current price and this year's dates.
