I never put address on it, but be careful not to put it out during the night as there is Bin tag thieves that pounce while you sleep,so as you leave for work just put it on,unless your bin man comes early.
It probably depends on what area you are in. I am in Fingal where there is a sticker that needs to go on your bin which you get for paying a yearly fee and then every time you leave your bin out you put a tag on the bin. In Fingal, it's a bin tag as opposed to a sticker.
