RECYCLING

Recycle efficiently and you will greatly reduce your annual waste collection bill.

Here are some helpful hints and information on recycling with Clean Ireland:

Please place your recycling items in the BLUE lid bin.

Clean Ireland Recycling will empty your blue lid bin on the recycling week highlighted in BLUE on your recycling calendar. Any contaminated bins (THAT IS BINS CONTAINING NON RECYCLABLE ITEMS) will not be emptied in recycling week as it contaminates the load.

What we do with Recycling items:

Recycling items are sorted through a combination of automation equipment and hand sorting on a picking line. After the items are sorted, they are baled separately. For example: Cardboard Bales, Can Bales, Newspaper Bales etc. They are then shipped to their destination for further processing into the end product.
