A spate of fly-tipping has left piles of rubbish and white goods dumped in Buckinghamshire.
Buckinghamshire Council’s fly-tipping team were alerted to Long Crendon after rubbish and furniture were found illegally dumped on the side of Westfield Road on July 18.
The unsightly dump consisted of mattresses, a pile of medical plastic gloves , blue roll, plastic bags and papers.
The council’s fly-tipping team wrote on Twitter: “Evidence found at flytip scene is now under investigation along with evidence from cameras locally. Looks like we’re going to Essex…”
In a second unrelated incident, 16 fridge-freezers had been dumped along a private road near Prestwood.
The Bucks Council fly-tipping team said on July 20 it was “criminal” and warned that the council had launched an investigation with local enquiries “ongoing.”
They suspected they had been dumped by a commercial waste carrier taken away as trade waste from households who “almost certainly have no idea what happened.”
The Council is urging residents to not pay 'cash for trash' to any waste collector and to report all fly-tipping incidents through FixMyStreet.
