The Government is ending flat rate fees for
household waste collection. More than half of
Irish households will not be affected as they
are already using a system which includes a
weight based or per lift charge. The phasing-out
of flat rate fees will start as customers renew
or enter new service contracts from autumn 2017.
As contracts expire over the subsequent 12
months, a flat rate service will no longer be
offered.
When householders reduce and separate their
waste they lessen their impact on the
environment and can manage their domestic waste
costs more effectively. For more information
