In 2020 Seaford Town was awarded Plastic Free Community Status. This was due to a network of businesses within Seaford town, including Seaford Town Council, leading the way to tackle throw-away single-use plastic.

Single-use plastics can include any disposable plastic item designed to be used only once, such as plastic bags, disposable utensils, beverage containers, coffee capsules, wet wipes, razor blades, plastic drinks bottles, food wrappers, bottle tops, straws, stirrers, and plastic lids.

Part of Seaford Town Council’s single use plastic policy is to share information about plastic free initiatives with residents and visitors through the Town Council’s social media and communicating steps that everyone can take, including the following;

- Use re-usable bags wherever you go

- Start using a reusable coffee cup

- Use soap bars

- Buy loose fruit and vegetables rather than pre-packed

- Cut out frozen meals

- Start using a reusable drink bottle

- Shop at re-fillable shop outlets

- Buy milk in glass bottles, that you can return

- Grow your own

- Carry lunches and snacks in reusable containers
