Galway Daily news Bulky Goods collection events in two Galway towns next week

Households in Galway City and County will have the opportunity to dispose of their bulky waste for just €5 in a collection starting at the end of the month.

The Bulky Goods collection by the city and county council will take place at the Tuam, Clifden, and Ballinasloe Civic Amenity Sites, along with the Barna Recycling facility on the Headford Road in Galway City.

The collection will run from Monday, July 31 through to Saturday, August 12.

For €5, people can recycle three-piece suites, wardrobes, bedside lockers, mattresses, bed frames, dining tables and chairs.

Galway city and county councils have reminded the public that this service must be booked online via the Barna Recycling website before arriving at any of the sites.

Pre-booking is essential to avail of the €5 gate fee and regular gate and weighbridge fees will be incurred if people arrive at sites without prior online booking of the service.

The service is for householders only, and commercial operators will be turned away.

The local authorities have said that items which will not be accepted include construction and demolition waste, hazardous waste, bags of household waste, toys, trampolines, ceramic and textiles.
