Wheelie-bin refuse charges could double

category national | bin tax / household tax / water tax | other press author Wednesday April 06, 2005 12:53author by ABTA Report this post to the editors

Anti-Bin Tax Campaigners have been right all along.

06 April 2005 11:34
Refuse charges in several parts of the country could double in the next four years after it emerged that Waterford County Council officials are looking to increase single wheelie-bin lifts from €13 to €23.

Wexford County Council is also planning to increase refuse charges by up to €100 per annum.

The main dump in Wexford closed last Friday and waste from there is now going to have to be transported to Carlow, at an additional annual cost of €2.5 million.

Waterford council officials say its 19,000 customers will be expected to pay €23 for each wheelie-bin lift next year - up from the current €13 charge.

Each recycling bag left out for collection is due to cost €5, up from the present €2.25 charge.
