    Set fire to your bin. That'll teach them.

    Bring it back to them with a note saying they forgot their garbage.

    Contact Local Authority and look for contact details of litter warden.

    If you happen to live in an area where people are liable to do this, invest in a Gravity bin lock. You are welcome.

    It's a sad day when you need to lock your bins to stop scabby neighbours dumping their rubbish. I hate people who are too miserable to pay their way.

    Then they just throw it over the wall.

    Under no circumstances would I tolerate a scabby person using my bins. Thankfully (so far, have probably put the kibosh on it now!), since the time the bin charges were introduced, never had an issue of people using my bin for their rubbish. It is in the back before collection day.

    Anyway, for a one off cost it would be worth it in my view to get the locks. I would do it, if for nothing else but to thwarth the feckers.

    And if they did throw it over the wall, I'd report on day one. Awful stuff. But certain political parties have promoted this kind of thing, you know... don't pay etc. Morons when the community as a whole suffers.

    They possibly expect the DSP, or the Government etc. to pay for them. Well if you are so called "entitled" to everything else, surely the bins would be paid for in their eyes.

    Is there no waiver anymore now? I am not up to speed on the myriad of entitlements for many now.. And I qualify for nothing. But hey ho. That's life.

    Don't know about a waiver, but even if it was 50c a month there would be some who wouldn't pay it unfortunately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 927 ✭✭✭BuboBubo


    Could you put up a "This premises is monitored by cctv" sign? Might put them off.

    Well like the rest of us ordinary mortals who pay for everything, their bin is not collected. Out of credit! Bin left uncollected. Bye now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,059 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Someone with a brain in the relevant Government Department should propose (before you all light on me), that a proportion of the LPT should be used for waste collection.

    TBH at this stage I'd prefer if it was. Might mean an increase in LPT and a consequent reduction in fly tipping and so on, because whatever our views, at least every household if owned or rented (via an LPT paying LL including councils) will have a guaranteed bin collection.

    Join the dots. It is getting ridiculous now looking at bags dumped all over, and the lack of litter bins everywhere because some are using them to deposit household waste.

    Someone has to take charge sooner or later, or the dumped rubbish everywhere will be unreal.

    We are paying for it anyway, so make it Universal via LPT. Revenue will collect it anyway as the best Government Department in the State for frightening the lot of us!

    this was brilliant,but could they get in trouble for showing the CCTV

    An interesting suggestion.

    Probably likely to be rejected by some smart civil servant on the basis that it would be in conflict with "polluter pays".
    Polluter pays doesn't seem to prevent large neighbourhood bins being provided in Spain and Portugal.

    Just a footnote - I don't see it as a legitimate function of government to frighten citizens.

    If someone reported dumped waste in a ditch to the litter warden, they can search it for any ID and fine the person.


    Karma!

    Firstly the comment about Revenue was tongue in cheek, but to be fair that Department is tops of all of them in so many ways IMV.

    And as for your comment about Southern European countries, the same applies to many other European countries also. You pay your community charge/Council Tax etc. and you have communal bins adjacent. Very little rubbish around to be fair in any country this applies to.

    Ireland is afraid to apply a community charge, either on top of or in addition to the LPT. I don't know why anymore.

    The costs of cleaning up the rubbish must be very high, not to mention the eyesore it is for those who do NOT do this, and never would.

    It will sadly probably be hijacked by the can't pay won't pay brigade. But they don't care how their communities are affected by dumped rubbish either.

    Time for someone with cojones to take a stand.

    I won't hold my breath, but the current system is an abysmal failure regarding those who will not pay for bins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭greencap


    Who's really going to leave their details in the bag?

    False flag operation. Gulf of tonkin. Thermite paint. Red herring.

    They want you to attribute blame, and go to war. You know who.

    Hate that. They made you their garbage bitch.
    They’re even so brazen as leaving their address in the bag.
    Nothing you can do now but accept that they’ll dump their rubbish in your bin from now on.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,608 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Write a letter to Dublin County Council, and the local TD complaining that someone dumped rubbish in their bin and asking how should they deal with it.
    Sign it with their name, for their address.

    In the meantime, drop it on their door step.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭holliehobbie


    Better not to write to Dublin County Council as it doesn't exist anymore! It would be Dublin City Council.

    Forge a letter from the litter warden for a fixed penalty fine and send it to their address.

    Use an existing DC form as a template eg.

    Simple. Just dump the bag on the doorstep of the local garda station(make sure to highlight their address) Oh and for good measure write a note ' F**k the pigs* and leave that in the bag also.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,456 ✭✭✭The high horse brigade


    This happened us. My wife contacted the litter warden who arrived 2 hours later to deliver the rubbish back to its owner along with an on the spot fine

    Use their name and address and write to the Mormons, Church of Scientology and every other crowd you can think of requesting call outs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,217 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    Yeah you'd be better of ringing the local litter warden. If they did it once they'd likely do it again. They were silly enough to include a bill, letter or whatever saying who it was. So can only blame themselves.

    Just out of curiosity op how far is the address from you?
    If it's on the same street as you that's one thing. If they are two-streets over (example) then you'd have to figure they were dropping bags off stuff into bins as they went.

    Somthing similar happened in my work place, after a weekend a mountain of black bags and household furniture was dumped in our carpark. on inspection there was hundreds of pages of personal information bank statements, bills, birthday cards, they must of had a huge clear out. Alas rang the council they said nothing they could do as the industrial estate was private property. No-one seemed to know who owned the industrial estate so we just dumped it all in our bins. its weird someone could be so stupid as to dumping stuff covertly and then leaving all their personal information in said garbage:pac:

    More likely they paid someone to take it away who wasn't legit and they just dumped it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,943 ✭✭✭Deebles McBeebles


    @Irish_peppa...Could be a case of people paying for their rubbish to be taken away but giving the job to a man in a van who is not licenced. Anyone dumping their own waste on that scale would surely take their details out.
