Tipping chip at allotments

[kev7937]

Just been to one of the allotments we leave chip at to find a notice on the gate stating that no more chip can be left there and any one caught leaving woodchip will be prosecuted for fly tipping

 

Any one else heard of this or had problems?

yep,my allotment now has a delivery of stable muck,

 

the problem is that the persons of no fixed abode tip rubbish and fir in there chip so the allotment bosses have put a stop to it,

 

woodchip is getting hard to lose these days.

All our allotments are under lock and key so you can't tip off without being let in anyway, I just think the councils like making it hard for us.

Don't think hedge hunter will be replying for a while.

Just speak to the allotment council officer for permission and which ones to use bud

Working for the council all the allotments have my number and just give me a ring or text when they want some.

Hello all, first post on this forum, we have a list of local farmers who are always willing to take chip as they use is for outdoor standing/feeding areas for cattle. Just a thought.

Brace yourself for the deluge kkk2... where are you?

Pretty sure it was the council that's putting a stop to it.

Not too many farms round our way unfortunately, allotments, schools and the odd stable take most of ours but can always use more sites

 

Just not too sure why the council want to stick their nose in when the allotment holders want the chip
