Material Not Accepted

It is not possible to recycle all the different types of waste materials generated at home at the Limerick Recycling Centres. Some materials are either too bulky and need to be recycled elsewhere, eg. a suite of furniture - you could give this to a second hand store. Some material simply cannot be recycled and should be disposed of to landfill, eg. contaminated food packaging such as a pizza box containing leftover pizza. Aerosols are not accepted.

Examples of materials which cannot be accepted at the Limerick Recycling Centres:

• Clothing or Textiles that are soiled or in bad condition
• Clingfilm (accepted in Mungret only)
• Fibre Glass Items
• Medium Density Fibreboard (MDF)
• Plaster Board (not accepted for landfill)
• Treated Timber e.g. creosote and painted.

These items should be taken to:

Gortadroma Landfill, Ballyhahill, County Limerick
Phone: 069-82339
Opening Hours: 8am-3.30pm Monday to Friday
