    Hi there - am just wondering if anyone knows what kind of waste is allowed in a skip - can you put in household clutter like ornaments, cd holders, old luggage etc.? Maybe someone would know where i could get a list of things that are allowed - thanks.

    You can put everything in to a skip, but in these hard time anything that you might not want try and put it on the adverts.ie site and get a few euro for it and it might pay a little towards the skip or even a smaller one.

    Thanks @ontheverge - i plan to recycle what i can, and put the rest on freecycle, but a lot of what i have is junk i don't think anyone will want it - i just don't want to fill it with stuff and then be told they don't take it!

    Certain household waste cannot be placed in skips. Such as:
    • Fridges or freezers
    • Fluorescent tubes
    • Old paint cans - even if empty
    • Gas Cylinders or any other type of pressurised container
    • Asbestos
    • Batteries
    • Petrol, diesel or oil contaminated waste
    • Chemical waste such as insecticides, medicines, herbicides, white spirits, etc.
    • Electrical Goods (WEEE)
