Wombourne Refuse Tip
The Wombourne refuse tip was closed over a year ago because of subsidence. This was a key service to the residents of the area. Nothing has been done to remedy the subsidence and re-open the tip. People are having to travel far greater distances now this tip has closed. The residents of this area want the remedial work to be carried out and the tip re-opened.
Why is this important?
People are having to travel far greater distances now this tip has closed. It is possible that this closure will also cause an increase in fly tipping.
Neighbours often helped elderly neighbours by taking their refuse to the tip for them, because of the greater distances this is not happening causing rubbish to accumulate or causing pensioners to incur extra costs by hiring skips or specialist refuse companies to collect their rubbish.
