Id like to see the story.
It states illegally dumping above and not fly tipping.
The council ran sites around here are **** hot if you try and take trade waste into the general public area. Big signs stating fines.
I wonder if he was caught repeatedly doing this ????????????
Or spoiling country lanes.

The fine seems very low for fly tipping as we generally imagine it. It often runs into 1000ssss
 
The lazy and brain dead idiot. He should of got a bigger fine than that really.
 
I really can't stand people who fly tip or tradesmen who brush all there rubbish under the floor ( a small amount is acceptable but not when you lift a bathroom floor and theres all the old tiles under there

I can get a skip for around ÂŁ175 for two weeks on the road and that's a big un
Charge straight to the customer plus my %

That or go the local tip

Theres just no excuse i'd say the fine was not enough

I've started using Hippo Skips mate. Trade get them for about ÂŁ150 and as long as its within 4 metres of the road they will pick it up within 5 days after you ring them. I phoned one in last week on the Thursday and it was gone the following day.

The local skip man is also my scrap man, he's about 55-65 years old so doesn't do loads of skips but he'll do them for me for ÂŁ100 if its on the drive if its on the road I use a big firm, so I can make a nice little sum if the customers not on a tight budget
 
Do you guys charge for waste disposal? I worked with so many plumbers who are happy to take anything from packaging to old appliances that were replaced.. all for free. Dont get it.. Its not their rubbish.

If its a small job like a ball valve rad swap ill take the rubbish as part of the job, although it'll be in my price just not listed,

Any scrap ill either weigh in or give it the scrap man and packaging goes in the customers bin on the way out
 
I call a tat man and give him some tat as long as he takes rubbish as well. If there's no tat he charges a small fee.
