An old sofa was dumped on Alliance Avenue and had to be cleared by council.

Hull City Council is once again reminding people to dispose of their rubbish responsibly or face being fined or prosecuted.

Doug Sharp, the council’s Head of Waste Management, said: “These successful convictions are a clear reminder that we will not sit by and let fly-tipping and littering blight our city.

“We urge everyone to dispose of their waste responsibly. Excess household waste can be taken to one of the city’s three household waste and recycling centres.”

Hull’s household waste and recycling centres are free to use and open seven days a week from 10am to 5pm.

Anyone with information on people responsible for fly-tipping can contact Hull City Council by calling 01482 300300 or visiting the council’s fly-tipping web page.
