Bulk Re-Turn Machine for Edenderry
Replace some of the existing single bottle Re-Turn machines within the town with Bulk Bottle Re-Turn Machines
Why is this important?
Edenderry has become a hub for the Re-Turn Scheme, people from the town and surrounding areas all bring their bottles into the town to return.
Even with the 5 locations within the town, there can still be long lines and delays for returning our bottles. All it takes is one or two people having to handball trolley loads of bottles to take up a machine for some time.
With the growing successes of the scheme has also come new fund raising opportunities for local groups and charities by collection bottles in bulk and returning them. Again due to only having single bottle return machines, the process of returning these bulk batches of bottles can take some time.
We are calling on Re-Turn and Offaly County Council to arrange for some of the newer Bulk Re-Turn machines to be installed within the town.
