Clearly our exorbitant council tax isn't enough to provide a council waste disposal centre that accepts all waste from the population of the local council. If they did what they were paid to do there wouldn't be any fly tippers, same argument as migrant gangs, make a legal route and the illegal one stops!

Bingo. Recently a dump where I was working banned pressure treated and painted lumber. They area didn't ban selling it and per code it's required, nor did they come up with what to do with the waste, just banned the dump from accepting it.

The employees at the xfer station were clearly done playing county fodder. Literally told me to just go dump it in the forest somewhere :/

Our local transfer station recently banned asphalt shingles. They recommend taking it to another city.
