Wheelie Bins (Separate Waste Collection).
Waterford City Council operates a 3 bin system of refuse collection.
As of 27th January 2011, Oxigen Environmental and Waterford City Council have reached agreement for the former to provide waste and recycling bin collection services to households in the city.
The outcome of a competitive tendering process means there will be no change to the current pricing regime and collection schedules for Waterford City Council customers.
You are required to separate your household waste into the 3 different bins. Each bin is collected on a 3-week rotation.
The volume of waste being produced by each household continues to increase. For example, in 2003, Waterford city households produced enough waste to fill John Roberts Square three times over !
