Household Waste Collections - Black and Brown Bins:
There will be no waste collection service on Christmas Day. Collections scheduled for Christmas Day will take place on Saturday 27th Dec 2008.
In addition there will be no waste collection on New Year’s Day. Collections scheduled for New Year’s Day will take place on Saturday, 3rd January 2009.
Waste collections will take place as normal on all other dates.
Green Bin Collections:
Householders whose green bin is full may place additional dry recyclable material beside their green bin on collection day provided it is presented in a safe, neat and secure manner. This extended service will be available to Dublin City Council customers until 31/01/09.

Just wondering if there is an ongoing industrial dispute with bin collections in Killester Dublin 5.
Collections were sporadic throughout 2008 but now black bins at Killester Park havn’t been collected since before Christmas amounting to a 3 week gap.
