Community Recycling Event

South Dublin County Council in partnership with Recycle IT will be holding a final community recycling day at the end of September 2023. We are inviting householders to avail of Free Mattress, Household Hazardous Liquid Waste and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Recycling on the day.

Reducing and preventing hazardous waste

The Irish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says we use household hazardous products every day in cleaning, decorating our homes, improving our gardens, car maintenance and even in personal grooming and hygiene. Check any Irish shed, garage, bathroom or kitchen and you will find a wide range of household products bearing hazardous symbols. Everyday examples include oil-based paint, weed killers, bleach or other cleaning products and nail varnish to name just a few. If these products are not properly used, stored, and disposed of, they can present a hazard to our health and our environment.
