You're spot on Honky, tip fees definitely discourage people from using the official tips. Nothing of course will ever stop the smart arses from dumping rubbish, fines, fees or no fees.
In the northern
Perth suburbs we have plenty of tips and apart from garden rubbish at weekends, all rubbish is charged for.
Go for a drive through Gnangara,
Wilbinga, Moore River or any other park and just see the crap that gets dumped including asbestos fencing/sheeting which the councils won't pick up due to the
hazard it represents to workers.
Take it to
the tip and it must conform to a myriad horde of regulations before it's accepted at a handsome price.
Rubbish is big business now and we all know who have their sticky fingers deep in the honey pot of the businesses collecting those fees.
