Missing your Courier? We’ve got 560 of them!

IF YOU’VE didn’t have your Courier delivered in the. northwest earlier this month then we have the answer – they were dumped in one of the Beach Buddies’ bins!

We found four bundles (140 each) in our Beach Buddies bin yesterday at Blue Point – one of the most remote beaches where we have one of our 54 bins which are all around the Island.

Plus, there was a bag of around 40 “Best Business Guide” brochures. And it’s worth noting that very little of the rubbish in the bin was actually from the beach – it was virtually all left-overs from picnics or BBQs.

Please note – all the Beach Buddies’ bins are for rubbish found on beaches (or glens / plantations / footpaths etc). You should take your domestic rubbish home (including The Courier) and put it in your own bin!!

Collection Bins

Beach Buddies provides, manages and maintains a network of 50+ collection bins around the island to encourage and enable members of the public to collect and safely dispose of beach rubbish. Our team visits each of the bins each week or fortnight depending on location and season to empty the contents and ensure the bin is in good order. We recycle what we can and depose of the remainder at the Energy From Waste facility. Last year we deposited over 20 tonnes of rubbish in this way. This is at the core of operation as well as being the most intensive of our activities.
