Campaign launched to tackle green waste dumping

A new campaign aims to combat illegal dumping of green waste in Dorset, launched by the Dorset Partnership Against Rural Crime (DPARC). Collaborating with various agencies, the initiative encourages residents and contractors to dispose of garden waste responsibly as summer approaches. Authorities warn that fly-tipping damages wildlife, blocks roads, and incurs costs. The campaign will highlight the consequences of illegal dumping and promote legal disposal methods, such as council services and licensed carriers. Enforcement actions against offenders will continue, with agencies sharing intelligence to tackle rural waste crime effectively. Residents are urged to report fly-tipping incidents.
