WHAT IS ILLEGAL DUMPING?

Home Up

Illegal dumping may be more than you think.

 

The three most common forms of illegal dumping in Pittsylvania County are:

 

1. Contractors dumping construction waste at compactor sites.

·        All construction waste should be brought to the landfill.

 

2. Business dumping waste at compactor sites.

·        All businesses should either rent a container or bring waste to the landfill.

 

3. Residents dumping trash on ground or overfilling compactors.

·        All trash should be put inside the compactor or other trash receptacle.

     If the compactor is full, either return to the site a later day or go to another      compactor site.

 

**** Littering is not just tossing litter out the window. ****

Please secure your trash on the way to the convenience center. Tie bags securely and be sure to cover any loose debris that might blow out of your vehicle
