West Sussex falls into three parts: the coastal strip from Worthing through Littlehampton and Rustington to Bognor Regis, the Gatwick-facing north around Crawley, Horsham and Haywards Heath, and the South Downs between them. Four postcode areas cover its 119 towns and villages: BN and PO along the coast, RH in the north and GU on the Surrey and Hampshire borders. One authority issues skip permits for the whole county, West Sussex County Council, and it asks for ten working days’ notice, so a road-placed skip is worth booking well ahead. A driveway skip needs no permit at all.

Skip permits in West Sussex
West Sussex County Council is the highway authority for the whole county, so one permit regime applies from Crawley to Bognor Regis. The fee is £65 for a 14-day permit, and the notice period is ten working days, longer than most authorities ask for, so a road placement needs planning. A skip kept on a private driveway needs no permit and no notice.

Skip hire across West Sussex
Coverage runs across all 119 towns and villages. Crawley and Worthing are the two largest and they behave differently: Crawley’s post-war estates and Gatwick-side units mostly have room to place a skip off the road, while Worthing and Bognor Regis carry long runs of Victorian and Edwardian terraces where the kerb is the only option and the ten working days’ notice starts to matter. Horsham, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill sit in the commuter belt with more driveway space. The Downs villages between the coast and the north have narrow lanes and flint-walled frontages that favour the smaller sizes.

Where West Sussex's skip waste goes
Skip waste from West Sussex goes to a licensed transfer station, where it is tipped and separated by material, with wood, metal, hardcore and clean plastics sent to specialist recyclers and only genuine residue reaching landfill. Waste carriers operating in England are registered with the Environment Agency, and a waste transfer note is issued for every load, the paperwork behind the duty of care in the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Fridges, tyres, paint and asbestos are booked separately.
