BIGbin, the pay-as-you-go waste disposal service with over 30 locations across Ireland has jiust opened a new location in Galway. Members of the public can come along to the new location at Circle K, Newcastle Rd, Galway City, H91 YKF3 which the first in Galway, and dispose of two standard black bags of rubbish for €8 or two bags of recycling for €5.
If you need to get rid of more bags, all you need to do is to top your online account (which can be created at www.bigbin.ie ) or buy more vouchers, which are available in the Circle K shop.
What people are finding most useful about BIGbin is its convenience - open seven days a week from 8am to 10pm daily. BIGbin is ideal when you need to get rid of extra bags of rubbish. Maybe you missed your bin collection or are doing a bit of clearout. It is also perfect for people who don’t produce enough waste to have a regular bin collection service or if there’s none available in your area. Owners of holiday homes and tourists find them very useful as well for one off usage. There is no annual contract with BIGbin, so you only pay when you need to use it.
For a limited time only, you can try it out for free - all you need to do is make a purchase over €5 in Circle K, Newcastle Road and you’ll get a free ticket worth €8, which is valid to use at any stage over the next month. You can contact BIGbin on the phone 7 days a week on 086 6047147 or online at [email protected].
Ciarán Cotter of BIGbin says they are delighted to open in Galway.
“We’re delighted to be able to provide one of our BIGbins to the people of Newcastle, Galway and we’re sure that it will be as useful for them as it has been for those in Cork, Limerick, Dublin, Sligo, and a host of other locations around the country.
“BIGbin is great for those occasions when you have more rubbish than usual, either because of a special event or maybe because you missed a bin collection. You have the power to dispose of the rubbish when it suits you - there’s no contract and no obligation.
“It’s also proving to be a great tool in the ongoing fight against illegal dumping, which was highlighted again recently by Independent Councillor Mike Cubbard from Newcastle who spoke out after trolley loads of rubbish were discovered at a public walkway between Camilaun and Coogan Park. BIGbin is a cost effective solution to the scourge of illegal dumping.”
