Please see details below of the Aerosol Recycling Campaign, which is currently running in partnership with Alupro and Arun District Council. The campaign will continue until the end of November and aims to raise awareness and increase the recycling of empty aerosol cans across West Sussex.

Each year, the UK uses around 550 million metal aerosols, many of which can be recycled at home once empty. However, recent surveys show that 22% of residents are unaware that empty aerosol cans are recyclable. This campaign seeks to change that.

The campaign encourages residents to use the Spray, Squirt, Shake method to check if their aerosol cans are empty before recycling. If not empty, they should be taken to a local Recycling Centre for safe disposal.

You can find more information about aerosol recycling and the campaign, including a video, on their website.
