Fly-tippers in West Midlands dump 'unsightly' washing machine
Council officers found evidence of the culprit within the fly-tip and an investigation is now underway.
Fly-tippers in the West Midlands have dumped rubbish and a washing machine, leaving the council with an 'unsightly' mess.
Wyre Forest District Council received reports of fly-tipping in an alleyway between Oxford Street and Worcester Street in Kidderminster.
Council officers found evidence of the culprit within the fly-tip and an investigation is now underway.
They also found trade waste bins being stored on the public highway causing a potential obstruction for wheelchair users.
A spokesperson from Wyre Forest council said: “Businesses should keep their trade waste bins on private land, only putting them out for collection from 6pm the night before and returning them to private land as soon as possible after collection and within 24 hours.
“Fly-tipping doesn't just look unsightly. It leaves other people to deal with the mess and can make shared spaces harder to use.
