Council chiefs were left “disappointed” after rubbish was dumped at a recycling station in Alexandria.
The facility, adjacent to Mitchell Way, was left littered last week.
The area has now been cleared but West Dunbartonshire Council has taken the opportunity to remind people to ensure their waste is disposed of correctly.
A spokeswoman for the authority told the Lennox Herald: “We are always disappointed to find waste has been illegally dumped, and our Greenspace team carry out regular inspections to ensure our area is clear from flytipping.
“The rubbish left at this location has now been removed and we continue to encourage all residents and visitors to do the right thing by disposing of waste appropriately, either in their household bins or at one of our recycling centres.”
Anyone caught flytipping could receive a £200 fixed penalty fine, as well as face a further fine of up to £40,000.
To report rubbish being dumped illegally, residents can phone 0845 230 4090.
