    Think about using the recycling centre in Scariff - we use the one in Ennis, three times a year, a car-load of recyclables €5 a time. €15 a year to deal with everything (keep the receipts). Just saying. It might not suit others.

    Yeah we actually did that a few weeks ago, great to get rid of all the recyclables. This is more for the normal waste, currently bringing it up to Clare waste (€5 per bag up to 10kg, I think the scarriff recycling center is €7) but it's a bit of pain having to wait until a day off during the week to bring it up.

    As a genuine matter of interest, what is 'normal' waste?

    Stuff that can't be composted or recycled, food waste mostly which is why it's a bad idea to have it sitting too long in the bin especially if it's warm lol:eek:

    Right thanks. Absolutely everything and its mother go in our compost bins for reasons. So we don't have 'normal' waste. :rolleyes:

    Mr Binman's pay as you go is quite good.

    Monthly charge is about €4.50 every month.
    After that, it's €5.50 every time you put out the general waste bin. and I think €2.00 for each recycling bin collection.
    Will work out a fair bit cheaper than the normal bin collection, if its a small household.
