Illegal dumping and littering are a major problem in our region. This behaviour leads to significant environmental issues which negatively impact our communities, ecosystems, and overall quality of life.
The unsightly waste not only diminishes the natural beauty of our surroundings but also poses significant health hazards and threatens wildlife.
In the past six months alone, Council have received over 61 illegal dumping reports and have removed a whopping 336,477 litres of illegally dumped waste and litter across the region, which has a substantial cost to Council and ratepayers.
It is more important that we all follow safe waste management practices in order to protect our environment for future generations. If you witness acts of illegal dumping, we ask that you inform Council via email at info@whitsudnayrc.qld.gov.au or phone on 1300 972 753 so that we may stop this behaviour.
