Halloween Safety Message

General News
Halloween safety message

dlr would like to appeal to residents and businesses alike for their assistance in ensuring this Halloween is safe and enjoyable for everybody. The uncontrolled burning of waste in a bonfire is an illegal, costly and dangerous practice.

We would like to appeal to residents to be vigilant and report any stockpiling of waste. Please note that allowing unpermitted waste collectors to remove waste is an offense and could incur a fine of up to €5,000. Any materials that are likely to be taken and used for bonfires should be stored safely and securely, or disposed of correctly, prior to Halloween.

We would also like assistance in protecting public bins, so please report any sightings of bins that may have been set alight. To report stockpiling or smoldering bins please call 01 2054700 or email info@dlrcoco.ie.

We care about your feedback. Have your say.
