Wealden district council environment and pollution pollution supporting neighbourhoods residential bonfires. Although wealden district council s official advice is to avoid having bonfires 2 many residents will decide that this is the easiest and cheapest way of getting rid of the unwanted material that cannot go to landfill and that is no longer a part of the regular refuse collection. Wealden is a local government district stretching from the north of crowborough to the south coast. We recommend that garden waste is composted or taken to a household waste site or placed into your green bin.
With exemptions all waste generated on a construction site must be taken away by a licensed waste carrier and disposed of treated at a licensed waste treatment site. However there are no byelaws preventing bonfires so if you decide to have one you must not cause a statutory nuisance to neighbours or cause anti social.
