How much are you paying for your domestic bin collection?

Cork City Council

Standing Charge - €290 per year. Recycling and Domestic rubbish collected on alternate weeks. €6 tag to be put on the domestic wheelie bin everytime you put it out for collection. No extra charge for recycling collection.

Time to change I think!
 

Yes!! You're been ripped off. I pay ~€285/annum for black & blue bins collected on alternate weeks with Rural Refuse and Recycling based in Gort, Co.Galway.
 
Dublin City Council

€2.85/Label

€100/year, I would think that this is a max. (I will edit later if different). I actually get big black bags to fit in 2 to 3 smaller black bags, therfore one label only.

Recycling - Free of Charge

I can't under stand the high costs from the previous posters.

I recycle all glass, use a compost bin for peelings, recycle as much as possible. Hence the resut above.
 
I just paid 366 euros to barna waste for the year for both recycle and landfill bins. Big difference in price I live in west Galway. Alterative week collection

366 to Barna is a big difference, I live an hour from Galway city and our charge with them is 288
 
South Dublin cc - €8.00 per bin lift, no standing charge. Last year €88.00 (there's only 2 of us and I re-cycle and compost what I can)
 
Sounds reasonable enough if you're in a rural area. It must cost a lot to collect your bins.

down side in living in a rural area is there is no competition in anything. The further west you go the least competition

I agree with this for sure, for me there is one company.. and one company only.
 
Recently got a bill for six months @ 231.19 Thats for two Bins one wet waste one dry recycable. Different bin collected different week..ie...wet waste one weeek then.....the other the next! you get the idea? and it's measured by weight also.

I don't this is terrible money. you may much the same with companies who only supply recycling bags/....which I might add you pay for!
 
Paid e369 12mths Ormonde/Greenstar 240L alternate weeks waste/recycle Co Kilkenny. Seems expensive now compare to other areas of the country.
 
Fingal County Council

240L bin collected every 3 out of 4 weeks 8.50 euro per lift by tag. Sticker purchase 40euro per quarter or no bin lift!

Green bin collected by Oxygen free so far every 2nd Friday.

Brown bin every 3 out of 4 weeks free so far.

Mind you the mess in the estate on bin day is disgraceful, with overflowing bins and rubbish blowing everywhere. Green bin day is as bad with paper waste everywhere, overflowing bins and loose paper boxs left on the paths. People are shockingly filthy and thoughtless.. Different topic I know but had to moan...
