Bed and mattress dumped in residential area in latest flytipping incident

Councillor calls on public to report those responsible for flytipping

Flytipping in a residential area of Co Armagh has been branded a disgrace by a local councillor.

Bags of rubbish – even a bed, both base and mattress – have been dumped at Brownlow Terrace in Lurgan.

And again it will fall to local ratepayers to foot the bill as part of the ongoing problem across the borough.

Sinn Fein councillor Liam Mackle condemned the culprits.

And he has called on anyone with information on those responsible for incidents of flytipping to come forward.

“I have asked council to remove the items and am calling on those involved to be more respectful of the area,” said Councillor Mackle.

“Council provide many waste collection services and will lift big items at a small cost.

“It is not acceptable to just discard items in this way.

“I would urge anyone who notices anything suspicious to report online via the council website or by calling 028 3833 9031 or to myself.”
