Everyone Everywhere is Entitled to a Brown Bin Collection Service in 2024
11 December 2023

- From January 2024, new EU legislation means every household will be entitled to avail of a brown bin collection service;
- Approximately 69% of households in Ireland up until now, are able to avail of a food waste collection service from their waste service collector;
- MyWaste.ie is encouraging everyone, here, there, and everywhere to contact their waste collector and request a brown bin service in 2024, because “you’re never too remote to recycle!”
The brown bin service accepts all types of food including raw and cooked meat and fish, plate scrapings, along with fruit and vegetable peelings. Other items that can go into the brown bin include food-soiled paper napkins, paper towels, pizza boxes as well as grass clippings and light garden waste. There is lots of information available here.
MyWaste.ie has information on how to manage all waste types including preventing and recycling food waste in your home.
