Pembrokeshire County Council have received more reports of fly-tipping across areas of the county this week.
On Monday one resident spotted a mattress dumped by a public bin on the pavement outside the Greenhill Avenue centre in Tenby.Reports of rubbish dumped at the bottom of Clement Terrace by the train station entrance were also flagged up.
The authority have also appealed for information after several waste bags were fly-tipped in a stream just off the road between Rosemarket and Neyland, near to the old railway bridge, which was the second incident of waste being dumped in the area in recent weeks and the council has reminded the public that its waste collection service is running as normal.
Earlier this month one resident in Kilgetty reported that people had started to dump their household rubbish at the Co-op car park again, with seven black bags and five orange bags piled up against the remaining recycling area.
Pembrokeshire’s six waste and recycling centres have now closed following the further strengthening of measures to tackle coronavirus, but kerbside collections across the County continue.
The Authority has stated that they are in discussion with other organisations, such as the police, fire service and Natural Resources Wales in a bid to tackle the problem during the current crisis, have said that they are keen to hear from anyone who may have any information on any fly-tipping occurring across the county.
The County Council have stated that it is committed to stamping out the illegal disposal of waste, and are able to deal with environmental crime by the use of £350 Fixed Penalty Notices for fly tipping.
