Pay by weight

According to the Wicklow Times, Greenstar claims to have sent a notice explaining how the new 'pay for use' charges will work in the new year. I no longer have the paper, but that's what I understood. If that's right, then it seems Greenstar missed me.

From what I read in the paper, we still have to pay the annual charge - now €395 or so - and we will then pay for each KG of rubbish on top of that. If that's true, it's outrageous.

As a family we have worked hard this past year to limit our waste output. We now produce less than two bags each week. I think we can reduce our waste even further. However, I had expected that this effort was going to mean a reduction in our annual waste charges. Now all I can hope for is that we'll be punished less severely.
