Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 2 Oct, 13:02 · Archive
Essex County Council is inspecting 21 recycling centres after businesses illegally dumped commercial waste.
Essex County Council has launched inspections at 21 recycling centres across the county following reports of commercial waste being dumped at facilities designated for household use only.
Businesses have been depositing their waste at these centres, contravening the rules that govern how the sites operate. The practice places an additional financial burden on taxpayers, who fund the recycling centres through council budgets.
The inspections are aimed at identifying where commercial waste is being deposited and taking action to prevent further breaches of the site regulations.
