Social media campaign prompts probe into  property firms' waste failures

Submissions from tenants part of formal complaint made to Cork City Council

Removing bins because of contamination (of recycling bins) is not permissable under Cork City Council laws.

A social media campaign has led Cork City Council to investigate two managed property companies in the city about inadequate waste management and recycling facilities. 

Cork Zero Waste, a recently-launched awareness campaign, collected submissions from tenants across the city before submitting a formal complaint to the council.
