Questions about hiring a waste collector

How do I know the waste is disposed of properly?

Waste collectors need a collection permit. Ask for the permit number and check it with the National Waste Collection Permit Office at nwcpo.ie.

What about asbestos?

Say so in your task. Asbestos needs a specialist and must not be mixed with other waste.

Is posting a task free?

Yes, and so is reading the offers.
