Residents

How you can help:

• dispose of your litter responsibly, there are hundreds of litter bins found across Southend
• if you can’t find a bin, take your rubbish home with you
• don’t flush plastic items down the toilet
• avoid buying single use or non-recyclable plastics
• buy a refillable water bottle
• use a bag for life, small changes can lead to big differences
• recycle, to find out what can be recycled please see our kerbside collection pages
• find out what happens to our recycling view the what happens to our recycling? page
• think about joining a group or the Street Champion scheme to take local action to reduce littering or clean beaches
