Collection days, licensed providers, and free night-before reminders
Fingal County Council licenses private operators to collect household waste across Swords, Blanchardstown, Balbriggan, Malahide and the rest of north County Dublin. Panda and Thorntons are the biggest names in the area, and collection days change between estates even within the same town.
Because collection is provider-based, your bin day depends on your route — not the council. Enter your Eircode below to see your schedule and get a free reminder the night before every collection.
