    Hi, fdue to not getting back early enough from the graveyard shift, I missed the bin men, (general waste)
    Just wondering if anyone has any ideas what to do with a bin full of rubbish, anywhere I can take it to get it emptied?
    I have the use of a van to put the bin in, and I live outside Kill, so Naas-Dublin areas would be fine.

    Thanks

    Ring the bin company and ask why your bin was not collected,they might collect it for you tomorrow.

    Silliot Hill near Kilcullen.

    The filling station in Sallins has a machine that weighs your bag and you the paw the displayed fee and dump your bag in the chute, like a clothes recycling skip, but for bins.

    i would love if every customer thought the same as you but as others have said if you ring whatever company they might sort it out for you

    open the bin and stamp the contents down.
    you will get another week or two out of it.

    Chair, stand on chair, step into bin, jump up and down, hey presto, no more full bin. I've managed to go 3 months in a house with 4 people using that method. No paying for bin tags for me.

    Choice is silliot hill on naas kilcullen road or ballymount waste station in middle of ballymount industrial estate

    I know someone who fell out of his bin doing this and broke his arm. Isn't there an attachment you can buy now for wheelie bins that does this using a lever?

    This is an old post from Max Flower and the bottom one is from yours truly but I think it deserves to be in this thread too..

    Burn it baby, we're dumpin, dumpin,
    Double taxation, we're dumpin dumpin,

    Find a spot with little or no light,
    Eco warriors will get a fright,
    When in the morn' they see a rotten sight,
    Burn it baby, we're dumpin, dumpin,
    Recycled my ass, we're dumpin, dumpin,
    Gimme your bottles, gimme your cans,
    Create a pile worse than ten caravans,
    At the side of a road, bottom of a stream,
    Saving money is the dream,
    Frustrate the governments greedy scheme,
    Now the countrysides a nightmare rather then a dream.

    You can use one of these things but be careful, I know someone that fell over it and broke their ankle.
