£100 Fine for Wrong Recycling Items!
Residents of some parts of Shropshire have been warned that it could face fines of up to £100 for putting the wrong items in the boxes.
Tim Sneddon The Council Shropshire, said that the surgery was because items like gas cylinders may “infect” reads the green from recycled container.
Residents can be fined for leaving their garbage for too long.
The problem is expensive when the Council has been tasked to reduce its budget for the next three years by £60 million.
Council members also say that the new zero tolerance policy will set a new standard and enable the cleaner, quicker and safer processing of recyclable materials.
Mr. Sneddon, a leading environmental maintenance manager within the Council, said: “We found that people are putting gas bottles and domestic waste – normal household waste, tin cans and everything – into the green bins.
“And that would potentially contaminate the load and prevent it from being composted.”
