Yea, have your government commit a bigger crime to prevent a very minor crime that amounts to littering, genius. #Britistan #YesterdaysMen #GoodRiddance
Dumping rubbish in a public area, or anywhere that is not your own land, is vile. People who dumb are the vilest of the vilest when it comes to setting a good example in society. They think that they can just dump, save themselves both time and money. We have a council here that is always informed of just who dumps, and given evidence, but Wirral council cannot be arsed to follow up with prosecutions. Good to see some council is
What can they not even get them back ? I think crushing them is a bit extreme as they could give the cars to people in need of one who don’t have the money..? Just seems a total waist
Councils are to blame for fly tipping by charging at dumps. Tax payers have already paid the council dispose of rubbish. What the council are doing should be illegal. Stop charging....end of problem.
@@cwwiss1 the video states that disposing of refuse at the tips is free for residents. Most of the fly tipping will be generated by commercial operations, who most likely charge their customers a tipping charge, then unload the van onto a lay-by in the countryside.
It would be a charter for people out for malicious allegations... You have a neighbor you don't like, dump some rubbish and say he did it. I know someone who lost their company over that. . . An estate agents in Chingford who didn't pay one of their workers... The guy stole all the rubbish from their dumpster and dumped it just up the road from the police station !
Glad to see it. I once found a large fly-tip down a lane that you’d need a pretty decent 4x4 to get down (loose gravel and mud surface with a lot of dips and rises) so how they got that much crap down there I’ve no idea as you’d deffo need a trailer. It was all domestic stuff ranging from toys to furniture to old clothes, as if someone had done a clear out. All of it could have been taken to the local re-cyc depot, which was only a couple of miles away and much easier to access. I reported it to the council, who responded fairly quickly (which surprised me as it was a Sunday)and sent a follow-up message the next day to say it had been cleared up. I just hope they found something that tied the waste to where it came from. Hats off for the quick resolution but it’s still galling they had to put time, manpower and other resources into cleaning up after lazy, inconsiderate slobs.
Excellent! It’s way overdue that the consequences of fly tipping are severe enough to actually make a difference. I’ve always lived in rural areas and I remember clearly see dumped rubbish as a child and nothing has changed. It’s time to get tough. No excuses.

Fly “tipping” requires a vehicle that can “tip” like a truck or transit tipper. Going after Mrs Miggins who is guilty of “littering” in her little run around is not going to fix the problem
@@cglees fly tipping has northing to do with the vehicle. It's disgusting piles of linen , mattresses, tyres, old tvs and building waste dumped in the countryside or on people's streets regardless of the vehicle. Its done by people from all backgrounds who have low moral standards. Decent people then have to tolerate it's presence before paying for its removal. Littering is equally as bad. It says so much about those who do it. Ever been to and seen the aftermath of a save the planet/ocean/environment rally/day-out.? I have. "Take your rubbish home" signs should not have to exist.
I agree. Where I live, if you renovate your kitchen/bathroom yourself and take the old waste to the tip they won't take it because they say it's trade waste.

That 300'000 doesn't go back into the refuse service either they are given the bare minimum to work of most of it goes to child and adult child care the rest gets split up between many many many other services the refuse service are lucky to even get 37p a month per payee a month to empty rubbish look on which UK website or even your local council website then next time you see your binman you will realise to empty your bin that service is only costing you 37p a month wow they must be rolling in it. Especially when you pay for a independent yard cleaning services charge you more for one yard clearence than the refuse department get of you in a hole year
@SEAN INGRAM true but myth the refuse services get it they work very hard in all weather for very little literally if it carrys on this way your binman are gonna end up quitting and working in asda for the same money because everyone gives them abuse thinking they get all the cash I know refuse collectors who work at morrisons and aldi know because they get payed a lot better they only did that job because they enjoyed working outdoors
Yep it's wrong and people need to stop calling there refuse collectors crap on here and on the streets because if it carrys on this way in the future they won't be anyone picking it up as they will all fly the nest for greener pastures where they stay dry and warm all day stacking shelves or working in factories and warehouses for the same and in some case's more money. At my local veka the unskilled workers are on £10 '000 more a year than the local refuse collector's for sitting in front of a machine cutting plastic guttering and up windows frames. Then we're will they be having to take there own crap to a landfill and council tax won't stop or go down as they will still say they need it for other services tax in UK will never die they rip us of in every way including charging us workers to pay tax that goes to the nhs yet we still got to pay per item per prescription joke
I completely agree that flytipping is disgusting and pleased that people pay the penalty. I am unclear though why the cars have to be crushed rather than be sold on an auction. If they are good functioning cars make sure you reuse them or recycle them!
If they don't pay the fine within the stipulated time the car get's crushed presumably. but yes it might be an idea to have the cars sent to auction. On the other hand the owners wont be handing over the keys so it might be a process with some of these keys costing hundreds of pounds and having to be programmed.
Very bad times , not long ago my waste bin was twice as big and emptied twice as often , I now have to fill my car with rubbish every week and drive to the tip , further polluting already shit air.
I am from West Brom. My mother had to move to a bungalow in same street after my father passed away. My father hoarded everything and found lots from our childhood which we had to dispose of, as mum was downsizing. We hired 2 skips from local firm. It was such an event for us we recorded it all, and the delivery man seemed very camera shy. A week later there was a knock on the old house from Wolverhamton Council asking about the residents, and neighbours told him where she had moved to. Even tho we had been careful not to bin anything with personal info a childhood diary from 1973 ended up in skip, and that led them to mums address. Fortunately we had evidence that we had paid for skip and could show the driver responsible. We never heard anymore but presume that they were prosecuted. Just to say it is not always cowboys.
This is brilliant, now what could we do about people throwing old mattresses and furniture onto the pavement outside their houses? This happens frequently here in New Zealand.
It would happen much less here if our councils didn't charge such exorbitant tipping fees. No wonder Auckland and many other cities have a huge problem with illegal dumping.
@@donr2176 It costs fuckin' money to trash and recycle things. Councils have to pay for all of these actions. How the fuck are councils suppose to function if they can't cover their costs?
It’s a few years now, but when my company had three vehicles stolen in four months by Travellers the police refused to do anything. One of the stolen vans was seen in the Travellers camp and was easily identified because it was sign written. The police said they wouldn’t go near the place, and told us to get onto our insurance company.
I read a comment from a dude who suggested that your vehicle licence plate number should be printed on all fast food orders leaving sites. This way, those little boy and girl racers can be fined for throwing their shit out of their cars.
Hello, late to this one. but part of the problem is, councils charge to much to dump. I remember a time when you could out any thing out with your bin and it would be taken away.
@@gowdsake7103 Hello, no one said it was. just saying if councils didnt charge so much half the problem would go away.Just another fee for greedy councils, to feed off. Also whats with the pillock. If you cant reply to a simple statement without name calling it says it all realy.
I remember when councils used to leave skips for people to use. there was no fly tipping then. so the problem is caused by the councils and could be solved overnight if they started suppling skips again
How long back was that? I think that is part of the problem now.. there are so many dos and don’ts and extra charges. Given the amount of council tax we have to pay every month, there shouldn’t be any extra charges.
Too right. Also, when I've tried to dump stuff at the tip in a hire van (after moving house) I was denied access. Why? I used my car to take the stuff, bit by bit. No problem there! So, councils of the UK, what's the point in these stupid rules? Rules that actually encourage fly-tipping? 😳
It's caused by austerity which is a central government policy that has targeted council budgets. It's not the councils (well most) that are the problem.
As someone who despises fly tipping but lives for salvage, it breaks my heart that roadworthy cars are rightfully being taken, but not going to breakers so the parts can be used. Great incentive, wasteful outcome
Fly tipping is often caused by council "dumps" either not open or not provided. Make it easy and free for people to dump their waste and fly tipping will stop.
You should be able to use the tip as often as you like you are being responsible for waste management by going , however the council's want to limit the amount of times you visit. We may have a small amount of waste whereas some may have more.waste is waste let's be sensible about it.
There's a difference between household waste and commercial/construction waste. When we have waste to deal with at work it's taken to a waste management site (non council), paid for and charged to the customer. Anyone flytipping is just scum.
Why the hell are you crushing them? There has to be an auction firm that would take them on consignment, auction them, and then you could use the proceeds either to offset the criminals fines or for other useful productive purposes like education or police outreach.
Cost mostly. Each car would have to be checked and, if necessary made road-worthy, before the council released it to the auctioneers. Any car that made it through this process and then failed and caused injury would be an insurance liability to the council. They cannot legally disclaim, IIRC. The cheapest option is to crush. Education is not a problem here as all tippers know what they are doing is wrong. they just don't care.
Go to the offenders address and tip proper household waste outside their front door, and charge them to take it away, although these scumbags will probably eat it and tell the kids it's a takeaway
The fixed penalties for fly-tipping are no where near high enough, but crushing cars is different and it’s a lesson the perpetrator, as well as the neighbours, will remember for a very long time!

Every council should implement this, also a page on the local council's website to post those found to be fly tipping for all to see. On top of this an 8 to 16 hr community service order, specifically to clean up fly tipping waste
@@javeedsultan8484 yes you are right, the streets are no better and still mess. Litter is not acceptable and it was genuine accident,careless I did not realise. It was only when officer stop me. Lesson learned at big cost.
Councils encourage fly tipping, they limit the amount each week you can dispose of, last year I moved home, I put out a large neat pile of cardboard, they refused to take it, I eventually burnt the lot.
Totally agree Henry Ellis, also for the larger items the the dustman won't take away such as white goods, old furniture etc, the council should reduce the cost they charge per item for taking it away, if it wasnt so dear to ask them to collect it a lot less people would fly tip those items as well.
First I wondered what fly tipping was. Then I wondered why it was such a big issue. Then I figured it out. You're on an island; garbage disposal is a HUGE issue. Here in Canada, if anybody even bothers to file an official complaint, you get a fine, usually a token amount, and life goes on...
This is a great initiative and needs to be used across the country. But I do have a problem with crushing the vehicles if they are perfectly serviceable. To destroy a perfectly good vehicle is damaging the environment and instead the vehicles should be sold at auction and the proceeds go back into the public coffers.
As they guy said only two waste sites for the whole of Wolverhampton . If there was more a lot of fly tipping would go away. some of this is to do with the councils putting charges on dumping things . If there was no cost to people fly tipping would diffidently decrease . My local council charge £2.00 per bag for rubble . I asked how big a bag the reply was as much as you can lift . which is unfair . so it is not just a problem caused by just people the councils are part parcel to blame as well . Not that they would agree on that.
50% reduction shows that there are probably not a large number of offenders involved. If they get hammered it should make a great difference long term.
I can't stand fly tipping but council's don't make it easy to dispose of waste,I once emptied my disabled friends shed and a general tidy of the garden,had a level load on a transit tipper,took it to the tip and got refused entry because it was a van, the nearest private tip was 20 miles away and it cost roughly £180 for just over half a ton of mixed waste,that is the attraction to people council's are partly to blame.
They should also be charged the cost of clearing up the mess they left behind, the vehicle seized and crushed and a thousand pound fine. They should be doing this across the country.
Some costs need to be addressed though and charged accordingly!!!! I have a lawn mowing round. The only “rubbish “ I have is cut grass!!! I have to pay £154 a year for a licence to carry the grass to the tip then I have to pay £22 when I get there. It’s grass, its biodegradable!!!!
One Pete to another, its amazing the amount of transit tippers with extended sides and barn doors tipping conifers and all sorts of shite in my area. They even park up on private land and bayby's where they fly tip the stuff till its full then move on till its cleaned up then return.Never seen them seizing any of there vehicles ? That would be racist very convenient. Pride in our countryside wouldn't let me throw a sweet paper out of the window let alone dump rubbish, Hope you can pass the cost on to the customer for there waste,,,,,, good luck with that one everyone is looking for service but in my experience not everyone wants to pay for it !! 🤙
@SEAN INGRAM certain individuals charge for the service and then fly tip more profit, I used to factor waste disposal int my price.My freind had a waste transfer station tipping charges and taxes were crippling he has changed direction, I agree in some aspects but certain individuals will still fly tip regardless.
Why not sell, or even just give your cut grass to a farmer to use as animal feed instead of paying to dispose of it in a landfill? A farmer would probably even come to pick it up, saving you the transportation charges.
SEAN INGRAM Once you cut it. It gets warm and ferments after a day or so. (Compost)And it would do the same when eaten!! If you cut it with a scythe it is OK!!
They won't crush cars that are valuable they'll only crush shitheaps or which the owner hasn't paid to retrieve. Furthermore they don't have the keys for them.
@@getchasome6230 why is it back pedal.i never said all crushed. You just jumped in fingers flapping without reading what I said.read before you comment
@@THEJR-of5tf I have few mates who are pretty much dependent on access to the tip. It pushes their quotes up dramatically as they have to price accordingly. A lot of local councils have stopped domestic pick ups and punish friends and family with vans for taking it for them. I've seen a lot of "cleaned" domestic recyclables arriving at landfill too.
On second thoughts, when you find the flytipper,take them in there vehicles,make them clean up there rubbish back into there vehicles,take it all to a crushing machine.all done.👍
The council dump should be open to all that want to use it free of charge. No pre booked appointment. No banned vehicles. No permit to use the site needed.
what a waste crushing perfectly good cars, if you confiscate it it could be sold and this would keep the carbon footprint down because there would be no need to make another car with all of the pollution that it would entail and the money could go back into the nations coffers
There’s no reasonable priced waste sites in the UK, we’re paying extortionate prices at the ones what are there. The reason most people fly tip is because their council’s offer nothing for small business
I grew up near Wolvo. Good work! I can't stand fly tippers. I was driving down a lane near Maidenhead one morning about 8 years ago at about 45mph on the way to work & had to pull an emergency stop because some idiot had dumped a huge mountain of rubbish right in the middle of the road.

Yep it's wrong and people need to stop calling there refuse collectors crap on here and on the streets because if it carrys on this way in the future they won't be anyone picking it up as they will all fly the nest for greener pastures where they stay dry and warm all day stacking shelves or working in factories and warehouses for the same and in some case's more money. At my local veka the unskilled workers are on £10 '000 more a year than the local refuse collector's for sitting in front of a machine cutting plastic guttering and up windows frames. Then we're will they be having to take there own crap to a landfill and council tax won't stop or go down as they will still say they need it for other services tax in UK will never die they rip us of in every way including charging us workers to pay tax that goes to the nhs yet we still got to pay per item per prescription joke
From an annual budget of hundreds of millions. It’s insignificant which is why fly tipping is not a priority to the council.
I completely agree that flytipping is disgusting and pleased that people pay the penalty. I am unclear though why the cars have to be crushed rather than be sold on an auction. If they are good functioning cars make sure you reuse them or recycle them!
If they don't pay the fine within the stipulated time the car get's crushed presumably. but yes it might be an idea to have the cars sent to auction. On the other hand the owners wont be handing over the keys so it might be a process with some of these keys costing hundreds of pounds and having to be programmed.
They get recycled as metal ingots....
I don't see why cars should be taken or crushed. Just fine or jail the person. The car has nothing to do with it.

They should be made to pay for the cleanup as well !!
Better still, they should do the clean up !
Leave them in the car when its crushed, they won't do it again !
Your joking what this WEAK justice system
I am from West Brom. My mother had to move to a bungalow in same street after my father passed away. My father hoarded everything and found lots from our childhood which we had to dispose of, as mum was downsizing. We hired 2 skips from local firm. It was such an event for us we recorded it all, and the delivery man seemed very camera shy. A week later there was a knock on the old house from Wolverhamton Council asking about the residents, and neighbours told him where she had moved to. Even tho we had been careful not to bin anything with personal info a childhood diary from 1973 ended up in skip, and that led them to mums address. Fortunately we had evidence that we had paid for skip and could show the driver responsible. We never heard anymore but presume that they were prosecuted. Just to say it is not always cowboys.
This is brilliant, now what could we do about people throwing old mattresses and furniture onto the pavement outside their houses? This happens frequently here in New Zealand.
Name and shame the offenders.
It would happen much less here if our councils didn't charge such exorbitant tipping fees. No wonder Auckland and many other cities have a huge problem with illegal dumping.
@@donr2176 It costs fuckin' money to trash and recycle things. Councils have to pay for all of these actions. How the fuck are councils suppose to function if they can't cover their costs?
Agree with the comments. If they fly tip, make it very costly if they are caught.
totally agree with H when it comes to travellers who definitely are the main culprits they turn a blind eye
It’s a few years now, but when my company had three vehicles stolen in four months by Travellers the police refused to do anything.
One of the stolen vans was seen in the Travellers camp and was easily identified because it was sign written. The police said they wouldn’t go near the place, and told us to get onto our insurance company.
Police will only ever go for the easy nick. I'm old enough to remember when the police were actually respected by the public.
Shameful but correct.
We hate Irish travellers.
@@swaldron5558 with good reason. Even the children are aggressive.
I read a comment from a dude who suggested that your vehicle licence plate number should be printed on all fast food orders leaving sites.
This way, those little boy and girl racers can be fined for throwing their shit out of their cars.
Absolutely brilliant 👏 thanks for your great work 👍
Hello, late to this one. but part of the problem is, councils charge to much to dump. I remember a time when you could out any thing out with your bin and it would be taken away.
Pillock ! Waste is NOT free to dispose of
@@gowdsake7103 Hello, no one said it was. just saying if councils didnt charge so much half the problem would go away.Just another fee for greedy councils, to feed off. Also whats with the pillock. If you cant reply to a simple statement without name calling it says it all realy.
Should they get their vehicle or vehicles back if they are repeat fly tipping offender. NO!!! DEFINITELY NOT!!! 🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡
They should lose their license's as well.
Well done to Wolverhampton council. Job well done. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Crush it, best deterrant i've seen for behavioural issues.
This sends a powerful message. Well done! Wolverhampton Council.
A powerful message of local gov ABUSING powers!
I remember when councils used to leave skips for people to use. there was no fly tipping then. so the problem is caused by the councils and could be solved overnight if they started suppling skips again
Or allowed builders free tip if they separate to recycle
How long back was that?
I think that is part of the problem now.. there are so many dos and don’ts and extra charges. Given the amount of council tax we have to pay every month, there shouldn’t be any extra charges.
Suppling skips? Supplying skips.
Too right. Also, when I've tried to dump stuff at the tip in a hire van (after moving house) I was denied access. Why? I used my car to take the stuff, bit by bit. No problem there! So, councils of the UK, what's the point in these stupid rules? Rules that actually encourage fly-tipping? 😳
It's caused by austerity which is a central government policy that has targeted council budgets. It's not the councils (well most) that are the problem.
Fantastic! Well done Wolverhampton Council.
Superb. Congratulations to the council. Bring this in nationwide.!!
Great work and one less Nissan Juke on the road👍
Hey now! lol
Excellent! Well done Wolverhampton - something I never thought I'd say.
Brilliant every council should run this program well done 👍👍
As someone who despises fly tipping but lives for salvage, it breaks my heart that roadworthy cars are rightfully being taken, but not going to breakers so the parts can be used. Great incentive, wasteful outcome
Great idea - wish they’d start up this campaign in our area too
Fly tipping is often caused by council "dumps" either not open or not provided.
Make it easy and free for people to dump their waste and fly tipping will stop.
You should be able to use the tip as often as you like you are being responsible for waste management by going , however the council's want to limit the amount of times you visit. We may have a small amount of waste whereas some may have more.waste is waste let's be sensible about it.
There's a difference between household waste and commercial/construction waste. When we have waste to deal with at work it's taken to a waste management site (non council), paid for and charged to the customer. Anyone flytipping is just scum.
If you can pay to buy stuff you should pay to get rid of your stuff . In fact it is free to do so. So it is already easy to dispose of stuff .

The council tip is free to house holders and I still see a lot of fly tipping
Awesome. Now this is something that should be rolled out across the country great job
Next time leave the man in his car when you do your business
Why the hell are you crushing them? There has to be an auction firm that would take them on consignment, auction them, and then you could use the proceeds either to offset the criminals fines or for other useful productive purposes like education or police outreach.
Cost mostly. Each car would have to be checked and, if necessary made road-worthy, before the council released it to the auctioneers. Any car that made it through this process and then failed and caused injury would be an insurance liability to the council. They cannot legally disclaim, IIRC. The cheapest option is to crush.
Education is not a problem here as all tippers know what they are doing is wrong. they just don't care.
I love the English way of understatement - " We shall be speaking to the registered owner of the vehicle "
Speak softly and carry a big stick...
Crushing a perfectly good vehicle is wasteful and as environmentally-unfriendly as fly tipping. Take possession and sell them.
EXCELLENT well done, it’s a Council who have “GOT IT RIGHT”. More please
Go to the offenders address and tip proper household waste outside their front door, and charge them to take it away, although these scumbags will probably eat it and tell the kids it's a takeaway
Fair play lads........
The fixed penalties for fly-tipping are no where near high enough, but crushing cars is different and it’s a lesson the perpetrator, as well as the neighbours, will remember for a very long time!
Better off selling the cars to generate extra funds.
Nice one ,it’s the only way the fly tippers will learn .

Why crush the vehicles ? They could be sold at auction to offset costs.
Crushing them is funnier.

@@getchasome6230 no reason why its not MOT'd. Government customs etc does this alot with seized items. Sent to the furnace.
More councils need to do this . I live in the countryside. Everyday rubbish is tipped in the hedges on the side of lanes .
Most Green lanes in the Countryside have Boulders blocking them.
And Nottingham council WON'T let Me go to just any Dump.......I'm allowed 1 site and I must be registered beforehand 😮😮
Vehicles of a certain age should be sold at auctions to recover monies owners should get points on their licence
Please show us us more, they have been getting away with this for years n costing the public millions a year. WELL DONE.
One other point, after conviction, name and shame these people.
Every council should implement this, also a page on the local council's website to post those found to be fly tipping for all to see.
On top of this an 8 to 16 hr community service order, specifically to clean up fly tipping waste

Councils encourage fly tipping, they limit the amount each week you can dispose of, last year I moved home, I put out a large neat pile of cardboard, they refused to take it, I eventually burnt the lot.
At last Henry some true comments all the creeps on here. Council this council that there lazy an care more about money than the country side
@John Small haha
Totally agree Henry Ellis, also for the larger items the the dustman won't take away such as white goods, old furniture etc, the council should reduce the cost they charge per item for taking it away, if it wasnt so dear to ask them to collect it a lot less people would fly tip those items as well.
Why didn't you just put the cardboard in your blue bin?
First I wondered what fly tipping was. Then I wondered why it was such a big issue. Then I figured it out. You're on an island; garbage disposal is a HUGE issue. Here in Canada, if anybody even bothers to file an official complaint, you get a fine, usually a token amount, and life goes on...
This is brilliant news love that you are crushing their vehicles
Why crush the vehicles? If they are 'sound' they could be sold and the proceeds spent as the fines are spent.

This is a great initiative and needs to be used across the country. But I do have a problem with crushing the vehicles if they are perfectly serviceable. To destroy a perfectly good vehicle is damaging the environment and instead the vehicles should be sold at auction and the proceeds go back into the public coffers.
God job. All councils should do this. 🇬🇧
As they guy said only two waste sites for the whole of Wolverhampton . If there was more a lot of fly tipping would go away. some of this is to do with the councils putting charges on dumping things . If there was no cost to people fly tipping would diffidently decrease . My local council charge £2.00 per bag for rubble . I asked how big a bag the reply was as much as you can lift . which is unfair . so it is not just a problem caused by just people the councils are part parcel to blame as well . Not that they would agree on that.
Thought that Nissan Juke had been fly tipped
It’s so ugly crushing it would be an improvement.
But they're so reliable 🤣🤣
Oh I thought that was a skip....
it should be - the ugliest car on British roads !
@@getchasome6230 = reliably ugly.........
50% reduction shows that there are probably not a large number of offenders involved. If they get hammered it should make a great difference long term.
I can't stand fly tipping but council's don't make it easy to dispose of waste,I once emptied my disabled friends shed and a general tidy of the garden,had a level load on a transit tipper,took it to the tip and got refused entry because it was a van, the nearest private tip was 20 miles away and it cost roughly £180 for just over half a ton of mixed waste,that is the attraction to people council's are partly to blame.
They should also be charged the cost of clearing up the mess they left behind, the vehicle seized and crushed and a thousand pound fine. They should be doing this across the country.
Lock them up
Some costs need to be addressed though and charged accordingly!!!!
I have a lawn mowing round. The only “rubbish “ I have is cut grass!!! I have to pay £154 a year for a licence to carry the grass to the tip then I have to pay £22 when I get there. It’s grass, its biodegradable!!!!
One Pete to another, its amazing the amount of transit tippers with extended sides and barn doors tipping conifers and all sorts of shite in my area. They even park up on private land and bayby's where they fly tip the stuff till its full then move on till its cleaned up then return.Never seen them seizing any of there vehicles ? That would be racist very convenient. Pride in our countryside wouldn't let me throw a sweet paper out of the window let alone dump rubbish, Hope you can pass the cost on to the customer for there waste,,,,,, good luck with that one everyone is looking for service but in my experience not everyone wants to pay for it !! 🤙
@SEAN INGRAM certain individuals charge for the service and then fly tip more profit, I used to factor waste disposal int my price.My freind had a waste transfer station tipping charges and taxes were crippling he has changed direction, I agree in some aspects but certain individuals will still fly tip regardless.
Why not sell, or even just give your cut grass to a farmer to use as animal feed instead of paying to dispose of it in a landfill? A farmer would probably even come to pick it up, saving you the transportation charges.
Martmns
You can’t feed animals grass that has been cut by a mower!!!
SEAN INGRAM
Once you cut it. It gets warm and ferments after a day or so. (Compost)And it would do the same when eaten!!
If you cut it with a scythe it is OK!!
Nice one, I live and work in a rural area, there is fly tipping into ditches and farm gateways weekly, massive pile of tyres last week.
Well done we need more of this.
Why crush.sell them to put the money back into the coffers. Dumb idea crushing
They won't crush cars that are valuable they'll only crush shitheaps or which the owner hasn't paid to retrieve.
Furthermore they don't have the keys for them.
They most likely auction off the good cars, you clod. Why would you assume that 4 cars crushed in one week accounts for all of them?

Gary Hyndman. I have a feeling the rates are set by the government, But I could be mistaken.
@@THEJR-of5tf
I have few mates who are pretty much dependent on access to the tip. It pushes their quotes up dramatically as they have to price accordingly. A lot of local councils have stopped domestic pick ups and punish friends and family with vans for taking it for them. I've seen a lot of "cleaned" domestic recyclables arriving at landfill too.
what a great idea, Essex County Council should watch this video

As someone who has been falsely accused of flytipping this concerns me.
Having recently worked for a local council I know how much money this wastes that is needed for schools etc, almost it's a bloody eyesore
The council dump should be open to all that want to use it free of charge. No pre booked appointment. No banned vehicles. No permit to use the site needed.
Well fkn done! Now... onto Suffolk and the hideous fly tipping here.
what a waste crushing perfectly good cars, if you confiscate it it could be sold and this would keep the carbon footprint down because there would be no need to make another car with all of the pollution that it would entail and the money could go back into the nations coffers
Agreed, redistribution is the way to go, not destruction.
There’s no reasonable priced waste sites in the UK, we’re paying extortionate prices at the ones what are there. The reason most people fly tip is because their council’s offer nothing for small business
Oh. That's alright then.
As you're OK with it. Publish your postcode here.
I grew up near Wolvo. Good work! I can't stand fly tippers. I was driving down a lane near Maidenhead one morning about 8 years ago at about 45mph on the way to work & had to pull an emergency stop because some idiot had dumped a huge mountain of rubbish right in the middle of the road.
