After trying to get rid of an old vacuum cleaner at a local tip recently, I can understand why this was done, but it's still no excuse: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/local-news/hunt-fly-tippers-who-dumped-10464005 |

I forecast that this type of thing is going to get worse. I live near a canal, we are permanently faced with fly tipping! I honestly believe the answer is to make tipping easier at the local authority facilities. |

Extending opening hours would help; 9.30 - 3.30 aren't great times for most people. But then, when did WCC ever do anything for the convenience of taxpayers? |

Lex, Why did the tip refuse to take your vacuum cleaner.?Thats what refuse dumps are for. I'd take it to bits and put it in my bin. |

Basically, I tried to drop it off after work, just after 4.00, but the tip had closed, and again just after 8.00 the next morning, but the tip didn't open until 9.30. I ended up dumping the vacuum cleaner in a commercial wheelie bin at work. |

They really don't help us do they? Councils are supposed to provide a service! |
