The change in waste management means commercial premises will no longer be allowed to put their rubbish out in bags
A crackdown has been announced on how waste is collected in the capital with commercial premises no being longer allowed to put their rubbish out in bags.AdvertisementA transition period will begin from September 16th for retail, commercial and residential buildings on many city centre streets with full compliance expected by January 1st next year, Dublin City Council has said.
"Businesses will no longer be allowed to present their waste in plastic bin bags for seagulls to rip up and let rubbish be strewn across the road. "They'll either have to put it in a wheelie bin or they'll work with the bin operators themselves to ensure that the waste directly from the business into the back of a bin lorry.
"We've ensured that the bin operators have engaged with the businesses so that they're aware of this change." He added that the new approach is"one of the biggest changes we've made to how we manage litter in our city".Share this article
