Use them all the time (Business). Sound bunch of lads. Never had an issue with their ink.

How does it work then? Can I just rock up with any empty cartridge and they somehow pour more ink into it and I can put it straight back into my Epson/HP/whatever?

I asked this question at another shop a while back. Shops apparently don’t do that anymore. Even if ‘Refill’ is over the door they will sell you a new cartridge.

It's like a gas canister exchange at least. You arrive with your empty and you're given a recently refilled one. Your empty is refilled some other time and given to someone else. If you arrive without an empty you pay more.

Not too sure if it’s still there or not but I
got some in Jim Corless on the Dublin rd. a few years back .

Do Wurth do rubber washers? They have a trade counter now.

I'm guessing it was taken away for a refurb? Can't imagine metal stealers would be so good as to cordon it off for a few days beforehand!

Hassetts on the Dock road are worth a try. Their business in nuts bolts and washers.

What are they for?

DaveNoCheese

Found suitable ones in B&Q, thanks for all the replies though.

I recently bought a metal garden shed which uses plastic washers for all the screws. Some of the washers got ripped apart when being screwed in which lead to some small leaks in the roof. Hoping these rubber ones will work much better.

We left earlier this year, as after a number of issues over the years, they didn't collect the bins. When we called them, they assured us that it would be collected that afternoon. 3 days later they finally said it wouldn't be collected until the next collection day (another 2 weeks). The bin was completely full, we moved, had our new bins within a few days and told AES to take their bins away. Terrible service.

Never had a problem with AES, have had them for 4 years.

Is the new crowd you got in better value? I change gas/electricity every year but haven't changed bins yet.

I know someone who had the false charging problem and it turned out their bin and the neighbours got swapped one week. It was the neighbour putting the bin out every collection. They both put big number stickers on their bins to make sure they took the correct one back in and issue didn’t reoccur.

We went with Mr Binman, not sure about the fees as my wife looks after that bill. I believe it's slightly more expensive but we didn't have a compost bin with AES, just waste and recycling. We now have a compost bin and a glass bin also so it's definitely worth the extra.

I have the narrow compost bin and the same for glass with AES for the last 9 years. They are available depending on the option you choose. The compost is collected every second Monday and Glass every 3 months. I'm also signed up to text alerts for deliveries so they message me the night before. We have Mr. Binman at the family home and never had problems with either so whichever suits your price point.
