They are giving me my brown bin weights for the last three months (average 10kg p/m = €17). They aren't telling me my purple bin weights, but online research suggests that a 240l bin of general waste weighs 25-30Kg. 26 of these per year = €117-140 per year So. including standing charge of €234, that's €368-391) Including VAT thats €418-444. My last bill was about €175 for six months - €350 for a year inc. VAT. This was already a 7-8% increase on my previous bill. You might argue that bins aren't always full, but Greenstar also offered a service with a 140l purple bin for low users, instead of 240l, at 40 or 50 quid p/a cheaper. Whatever way you look at it, it's a massive increase in price.

Ludo wrote: » ah..I was wondering that. Must ring them to get access to my online account. So after getting access and averaging out the last three moths of data I worked out I will be paying roughly 27/28 euro a month for 5 people, which is less than the current 29.41 I pay them. Maybe I am making some mistake though as everyone else seems to say they don't generate much waste but their cost will sky rocket. Must do the maths again :-) So after calculating costs again Current charge: 29.41 Charges under new monthly standing charge and weights: March : 27.56 April : 26.74 May : 28.31 Seems reasonable.

I read in a newspaper article that the Government set out the charges as follows: 11c black bin, 6c brown, green free so where CityBin is going with their new prices is puzzling me. The highest standing charge of €3.99 would make an annual difference of 54% i.e. increased total.

We recieveied our last bill at the end of May which is meant to run for six months but on the back of it it says charges cam change during the billing period.(or something similar) The impressions I'm getting is it's going to be expensive for most people. I can see alot of illegal dumping in the future!
