due to some confusion recently that we ARE NOT permitted to take any fridges, freezers, cookers, washing machines or driers. Apologies for any inconvenience caused as the county Council does not permit us to do so.
We CAN accept clean, dry card/paper, some metals, some plastics (1-4) and light bulbs. The Tinahely.ie website outlines what can and cannot be accepted and includes other beneficial information and can be accessed here: tinahely.ie/
Again we regret any inconvenience caused and thank you all for your continued support.
