Half a dozen large black bins were buried under piles of bursting bin bags and carrier bags full of waste. Hundreds of cardboard boxes also sat on top of the overflowing recycling bins. Most of the boxes were piled up on top of other bags of rubbish in front of the bins on the side of the road.

Locals have been left angered by the heap of litter, with many taking to the comments to slam the fly-tippers. Not only is this unsightly, but this could also attract vermin... keep it at home until the tips are open again. Disgusting!. One person said: "I did a tip run on the 21st to get rid of excess cardboard/paper/bin bags so that my bins would be mostly empty in preparation for the tip being shut over Christmas and Boxing Day. This is absolutely shocking to keep adding to the pile".

Another added: "Not only is this unsightly, but this could also attract vermin, too. For the sake of a few days, keep it at home until the tips are open again. Disgusting!". Someone else wrote: "Just lazy. Cut your boxes up and pack them together. Loads of room saved.".
