Any Galway jumbletowners please put some posters up and save those with good stuff a few quid for the collection.

Also Admin any chance you could get the council to put a link to Jumbletown on their homepage / bulk item collection page???

Thanks, Snowdaisy
Hi Snowdaisy,

Do you mean Galway City Council rather than Galway County Council? The former collects bulky items twice weekly....

...while the latter is having a WEEE collection on the 13th December:

Both local authorities in Galway gave some marketing support to JumbleTown last year in the form of funding from the Local Agenda 21 Scheme, so they know that we exist. Some local authorities only link to government/public websites so that may be the reason that a link to JumbleTown is not included. (Links to all of the local authorities on the island of Ireland can be found at the top and bottom of JumbleTown's Home Page.)

Thanks for the information and feedback.

Regards
