Council’s Environment team have unfortunately been finding illegally dumped tyres from a suspected commercial operator regularly in the region.
This year, so far, ratepayers have had to subsidise the removal and disposal or approximately 155 tonnes of tyres. This illegal dumping is costly to the environment and on Council resources. Two recent incidents were the illegal dumping of 41 tyres near Mount Perry and 46 at Lakeside Park.
If you have information on these or other incidents, please get in contact with Council to help us stamp out illegal dumping and hold those responsible accountable. You can share photos or information of persons and vehicles via our website, by calling 1300 696 272 or emailing admin@northburnett.qld.gov.au. You can also request to be anonymous.
