The same goes for commercial waste. Why should we be paying to process the results of your commercial activities?
Just suppose that you have not bought the table and chairs but been
given a set because you need them to replace your broken clapped out old set. The other council tax payers will still have to pay if you dump the old ones, therefore I think my argument is valid. People like the Captain and myself can buy new, many others on a low income are not so lucky and unfortunately have to take what they can get.
I agree about commercial waste as the cost of disposal is or should be included in the quote for the job so illegal dumping is simply down to greed.
