Dumped rubbish blocking one way street in Addiscombe

A pile of dumped rubbish is blocking a one way street in Addiscombe.

It is believed the rubbish was discarded sometime between Monday night and Tuesday morning in Heron Road, at the junction with Tunstall Road.

Although the rubbish was reported to the council yesterday, it has yet to be cleared up.

The waste which includes a headboard, cardboard boxes, tarpaulin and plants is blocking access to the one way road.

One resident, who did not want to be named, said: "It's a real shame we have such inconsiderate people living in Croydon, who do such cowardly pathetic actions."

A spokesman for Croydon Council said: “The council’s waste contractor has been made aware of this fly-tip and will deal with it at the earliest opportunity.”

I bet it is from the people who continually knock and offer to clear your rubbish for a cheap price. (If any one doubts that wait until you have any rubbish in your front garden and see how many people knock and offer to remove it for you, if you can understand what they are saying that is!) Probably opened the back doors on their battered Transit and shoved it all out as they drove down the road.
Remember people if someone offers to clear your rubbish for a tenner this is the likely final resting place for it.
Contact Croydon Council, they will take 7 items for £10 and charge £20 for 14 items.
Very reasonable and you know your rubbish is safely cleared.
Check their website for details.
