    Hey All,

    I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post but....

    We have taken up a concrete path in our garden and there is a fair amount of rubble from it. How does one get rid of this sort of stuff? I priced getting a skip but is very very expensive and have had a look at some recycling centers, but I'm not sure they take this kind of waste...

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Niall

    Oxigen Recycling Centre in Ballymount or else any of the Dublin City Council recycling centres will take household waster and concrete/rubble.

    Around 15 euro for a jeep/van load at Oxigen.:)

    Better to go to recycling centre, but a small skip bag is pretty cheap ,

    keywaste do skip bags but they dont allow rubble in their biggest bag, only the medium sized one - think the bag is 18 and pick up is 68 - this is the cheapest you will find, i've looked recently and couldn't find better

    I think you need a license from the council for a metal skip, no license needed for skipbag, if using skipbag ,dont leave it on roadway,for more than 4 days

    Not if it's in your driveway you don't, possibly if it's on a public road.

    I got a 2 tonne skipbag, which is the same size as a standard builders metal skip for €99 from http://www.a1skipbags.ie/ in Tallaght.
    I piled the contents of two bathroom refits into it, plus garden waste.

    If you have a serious amount of rubble then maybe you should get a metal skip for safety.
    But I was happy with a skipbag. Metal skips of a comparable size were about €190 with a timelimit of 5-7 days, while you can hang on to skipbags for as long as you like.
