Wheelchair and Kitchen Appliances Fly Tipped in SOUTHPORT

Fly-tippers have dumped a wheelchair and two fridge freezers under the Peel Street bridge in Southport.

Fly tipping is an unsightly and dangerous problem and costs council tax payers money to clear away.

A council spokesperson said:

“We treat this problem very seriously and will usually prosecute anyone caught fly tipping waste in the borough.

Dumping household, industrial and commercial waste illegally is a serious criminal offence that carries a fine of up to £50,000, offenders can even be sent to prison.”
