That is still nowhere near the true cost of waste collection and disposal. The true cost (which you will be paying imho within 5 years) is curently around €350 (they gave the acual figure on Newstalk yesterday, I can't recall the exact figure). Dublin charges are still a bargain - try living in an area where the only collection is a private monopoly - they know how to charge the true cost.
