Yes - Cork Co Council at Raffeen now charges €3 entry fee, even if you are just recycling. Plus €7 per bag of "waste".

We go once a month now and so spend €10 for one bag of waste plus all the recycling.In time we should get it down to one visit every 2 months I hope. Time wasted I suppose but beats paying the pay-by-weight plus standing charge.

Note: you must NOT be charged anything, even the €3 entry fee, if you are recycling only electrical items - that has already been paid for under the WEE legislation. Cork CC in Raffeen know this - make sure your site does too!
