Nappies | Sevenoaks District Council
Website maintenance

From 9pm on Monday 31 March, some of our online payments, forms & features will be unavailable while we carry out maintenance. This will be for a maximum of 4 hours. We apologise for the inconvenience

Nappies

Disposable nappies cannot be recycled and must be bagged and put in with your waste sacks.

Just one disposable nappy in with your recycling could lead to the whole lorry load of good recycling being rejected. As a result, our collection crews will not take any recycling that contains disposable nappies.

The recycling bags will be left and emptied the following week, provided that the nappies have been removed.
 

Reusable nappies

You could save money and reduce the amount waste by switching to reusable cloth nappies. Find out more on the Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP) website.

Reusable cloth nappies are available from all good local retailers and number of online businesses can help you make that change, give advice and stock specialist products.
