Who fly-tipped wooden chairs and ride-on toy car outside Grimsby's community recycling centre?

                                                           


NORTH East Lincolnshire Council is calling for the public’s help in identifying two individuals filmed on CCTV in the process of fly-tipping.

The incident, on Gilbey Road, Grimsby, outside the Community Recycling Centre, shows two individuals dumping a variety of items, such as a child’s car seat, a ride-on toy car and wooden chairs, from what is thought to be a Mercedes Vito van.

Having taken place on Wednesday, 26th November 2025, at 8:08pm, the council is now asking the public to help identify the individuals and vehicle concerned.

NELC contact details are 01472 326299 (Option 1) or email communityprotection@nelincs.gov.uk and quote PR202512-42164.

The Grimsby News says: Fly-tipping is highly antisocial, but this is far from being the worst example. The cuprits would probably like to have taken the items into the recycling centre but were frustrated to find that it was closed. It is curious that NELC has seen fit to launch an appeal for information. Although it has been blurred in the press release, the registration number on the vehicle is available to its officers. Would it not be simpler for the council to contact the licensing authority?
