    Yes, you've discovered the quasi cartel that is skip hire.

    As an alternative, your local bring centre will charge you about a €5 per carpet, and you get to recycle the cardboard for free!! This assumes you can get it there! Check your local councils web site

    Beware of cheapskates. **You** are responsible for the correct disposal, even if you pay someone else to do it.

    a can o petrol and some good tyres to get the fire burning hot..

    and then chuck em on..

    They'll take almost anything. Recyclables are mostly free, large items of household furniture aren't

    There's one in Coolmine which is 10-15mins from Lucan. The link has more details on charges too
