Brown paper bags for the 7 ltr kitchen food caddy are available at the cost of €3.50 for a bundle of 50 from our offices in Ennis, Shannon, Limerick and Cree. You do not always need to use the brown Clean Ireland bags though. You can also line your bins with newspaper or any paper bag. Please do not use plastic bags or biodegradable bags in the food bin as they do not decompose at the same rate. Use newspaper or paper bags only please.

You need to bring in your food waste bin to any of our offices and it will be replaced. For the bigger recycling and waste bins, please ring us directly on 1890 361800 and we will arrange to have them replaced.

Please email admin@cleanirl.com or ring us on 1890 361800 and we will arrange for a replacement EASYPAY CARD to be sent out to you.

You can firstly manage your waste by monitoring the amount of waste you bring into your household. Try to choose less packaged products while shopping if possible. Increased diversion from your mixed waste bin of the appropriate material to your recycling and food waste bins will also help reduce your future bills further.

Please put all bins out the night before collection day and leave out until collected. Make sure all bins are placed on the kerbside and are visible from both directions. Do not time the trucks as collection schedule/time can vary.
