In a significant environmental upgrade, Tidy Towns groups across south and west Wicklow have enthusiastically welcomed the installation of new ‘Bigbelly’ smart bins. Locations in Tinahely, Baltinglass, Donard, and Blessington now feature these advanced waste management systems as part of Wicklow County Council’s ongoing bin replacement initiative.
Bigbelly’s high-capacity bins are celebrated for their innovative design that not only holds more waste than traditional bins but also compacts rubbish and signals when full, thanks to the smart fullness indicator. This technology enhances urban cleanliness and efficiency by keeping waste contained and intelligently managed.
