Nothing but good things to say about the lovely folks at Higgins Waste & Recycling. Rubbish always collected in a timely fashion and staff only too eager to help with any queries. Couldn’t recommend them any more highly.

Excellent service. Timely and efficient always. Very pleasant staff collecting the bins and the personnel at the office are always easy to reach by telephone and extremely helpful in dealing with a query.

Philip

Great service provided by Higgins Waste, collections always on time and a pleasure to deal with over the phone or in person. I often drop my own heavier recycling items up to the yard myself and it’s always clean and a pleasant experience. Would recommend.

Alan

Fantastic service! Have a great rapport with the refuse collectors and they’re always in good form. Ordered a skip recently and was expecting to pay much more. The customer service when ordering the skip was second to none. Overall a very stress free experience.

We love to hear your feedback here at Higgins Waste and Recycling. We have received some fantastic feedback over the last 30 years, and hope to continue this trend. See some of the great feedback we have received.

[H4] We would like to thank all our customers for the continued support and look forward to serving you into the future.
Over the last 12 months we have seen significant increases in energy, diesel, labour, government levies and various other costs that are unfortunately beyond our control. Our commitment remains strong in keeping your expenses as low as possible while providing exceptional service as well as minimising our impact on the environment. From Feb 26, we are increasing the price of mixed waste and recycling by 2 cent per kg and increasing the service charge by 1 euro per month.In order to minimise any cost increases we would encourage customers to use their brown food caddy. If you don’t currently have a food caddy or need an extra caddy, you can order yours by emailing:  info@higginsenvironmental.ie
Kind regards, All at Higgins
