    Lucan people.......So Thorntons bin charges on on the hike up....again.

    Annual service charge going up from 60 last year to 70 euro, was 50 euro in 2017.

    Bin lifts:

    Black bin up from 9.90 to 10.50 per lift
    Green bin up from 1.00 to 1.25 per lift
    Brown bin up from 4.90 to 5.25 per lift

    They quote an increase in insurance, fuel, environmental compliance and a reduction in the value of recyclable commodities........

    Have any other bin providers in Lucan (City Bin and Greyhound) hiked up their charges for customers yet?

    The funny thing is, when the green bins were “free” we were told that they were being subsidised by the black bin lifts.

    So one would imagine that black bin lift prices would go down due to green bin charges.

    But the prices are being increased on both here!

    Ive recently heard recyclers sell sorted and processed recovered plastics (and general waste) as fuel? and that there is a large demand for it,
    Seems like another cartel, increases just so you know there will always be increases
