Zero council tax or property rates on a rented property---you 'll need to pay service charges for waste collection usually

At the moment there are none, we are due a budget next week which is mooted to bring in a household charge of €100 per year. Water rates are due in the coming years also. You will have to pay for your refuse service on a usage based system, there are a number of options depending on your chosen service provider.
