East Kilbride business gives flytippers ultimatum after catching them on CCTV

An East Kilbride garage has issued an ultimatum to mindless flytippers who dumped goods on their grounds.

The shiftless crooks dumped three mattresses and a basin at Spannerama's yard - now the owner of the garage has told them to come back and get their waste or they'll be named and shamed online, and shopped to the cops.

Based at Westgarth Place in the town, staff at Spannerama discovered the mess when they came back to work after they weekend.

They said it was blatantly dumped on their yard - and thanks to their high-tech camera system, they managed to capture the incident taking place.

They've even identified a suspicious vehicle they think is linked to the incident.

A Facebook post published by the garage is asking those involved to remove the rubbish before police are contacted.

A garage spokesman told the News on Friday: “The mess was actually dumped over the weekend.

“But our cameras have vehicle registration recognition and we are able to zoom in on the registration plate.

“We put the appeal online in the hope that Facebook does it’s thing and those involved come and remove the rubbish they have dumped here.

“I have said they have 24 hours to do so, which takes us up until Friday night.

“Otherwise I will provide police with the CCTV camera footage and vehicle registration plate.

“So whoever done it, best come and take it away again and dispose of it correctly.”
