    Am I right in thinking I can dispose of redundant electrical items at the Kinsale Road dump?

    Is anyone able to confirm?

    TIA :)

    Is there a charge, or does it depend on the size of the item?

    10am til 4 next Saturday 11th in Tesco Wilton carpark and in Mahon Centre
    WEEE Ireland organises and promotes public collection events of WEEE and waste batteries in areas which don’t have convenient access to civic amenity sites. Any household item with a plug or battery will be accepted at these collection events – from large items such as fridges, dishwashers and tumble-dryers, to small household items such as remote controls, electric toothbrushes and everything in between. All waste batteries will be accepted free of charge, including AA and AAA batteries, torch batteries, watch batteries, car batteries and electric fence batteries. WEEE Ireland has collected over 6,400 Tonnes of electrical equipment from special events since 2007 – almost the same weight as the Eiffel Tower!!
    These days are promoted through local schools, local press and radio and again it's free for the general public to bring any batteries or household item with a plug or a battery for recycling. They're a great chance for you to finally clean out the garage or attic.
