Drop in fly-tipping saves Surrey taxpayers £125,000 in 10 months
A drop of 1,100 tonnes in fly-tipped waste over the past 10 months has saved Surrey taxpayers £125,000. Figures from Surrey County Council show that 2,749 tonnes of fly-tipped rubbish were picked up by district and borough councils between April last year and January – a fall of 30 per cent on the previous 10-month period. It means a reduction of 1,153 tonnes in the amount of fly-tipping the county council is having to get rid of – saving taxpayers £125,000 in disposal costs.
