Love dumping?

As well as the ludicrously sanctioned waste management licence issued to Albright and Wilson all those many years ago to dump toxic waste in the open environment, John’s Lane and its environs has also from time to time seen indiscriminate fly tipping by both industrial and private entities.

Sandwell council even had a letter from the serial chemical blighters bemoaning the fact that they could not deposit toxic waste into the “licenced landfill” due to the flytipping blocking it! Oh the irony.

“unauthorised deposition of building rubble, old furniture, worn tyres , and other materials by person’s unknown.”

The problem of fly tipping remains endemic across Sandwell and beyond, both by dodgy companies, so called “travellers”,  and also private individuals. Unfortunately however the local authorities seldom prosecute claiming lack of evidence, but does this really wash when someone leaves items and personal effects linked to an address at another scene?

An infrequent but reoccurring fly tipping spot occurs at the entrance to the Rattlechain end of Johns Lane leading to Temple Way. All sorts finds its way here, mostly I suspect from rogue traders, but occasionally it appears that some people slip up and leave behind items which incriminate them.

One such occasion happened recently, and so I am going to name and shame because there is no excuse as to what these items were doing at John’s Lane Tividale, having arrived from an address off the Park estate in Tipton. Geographically we are talking a distance of some 1.1  miles by road.

The dumped rubbish near to the Rhodia barrier gate

Amongst an assortment of household rubbish and toys were a couple of incriminating items betraying whence the pile had come from. 40 Anderson Road Tipton. DY4 8SD

But wait there’s more,… a hand crafted valentines day card from loving wife “the one and only Farhana Ali”.

So if the loving couple would care to explain how this pile of rubbish got to be in John’s Lane, then I’m all ears, because right now I’m scratching my head for an explanation other than they or person’s operating from that address dumped it there.

Of course house clearances by dodgy companies do not indemnify the occupants from committing an offence even if it were not they who actually dumped the rubbish there themselves. I would suggest that Mr Ai gets himself a better “Curryer” in future. 😆

By way of help , I’m giving some sat nav directions to the council’s Shidas Lane Tip, some 1.5 miles from where this rubbish was illegally dumped , and therefore a distance of 2.6 miles from Anderson Road Tipton. It apparently takes a time of 8 minutes 33 seconds.

Rest assured, if Rhodia are more interested in their own problems these days, and Sandwell council look the other way, the bloodhounds of Rattlechain will always be watching. Keep em peeled!
