Cavan County Council issue Brown Bin Guidelines

July 24, 2015/in Uncategorized /by admin

Cavan County Council have announced that from the 1st July 2015 Brown Bins are being introduced into the following towns in County Cavan:

Ballyjamesduff
Bailieborough
Virginia
Kingscourt
Cootehill

Full details can be found at Cavan Brown Bin

The Council allows for green/graden waste, food waste (cooked & uncooked) and other items such as pizza boxes and wine corks to be be put in the brown bin, and they endorse the use of biodegradable bags. The clear unambiguous guidelines issued by Cavan County Council will be of great help to Cavan householders, and indeed all Irish householders, who have received disparate messages from waste service providers as to what can be put in the brown bin. Well done Cavan County Council
