Man who ran waste service prosecuted after using pavement as his 'own personal skip'

Man who ran waste service prosecuted after using pavement as his 'own personal skip' Daniel Morgan, from Aberaman, was fined after a court heard he ignored repeated warnings from the council after he was caught dumping sofas, panes of glass, kitchen work tops and piles of tyres on the pavement outside his house Some of the waste stored on the pavement (Image: Rhondda Cynon Taf Council ) A man who was using the pavement outside his house as "his own personal skip" has been prosecuted by his local council and ordered to pay £2,100 in court. Daniel Morgan was running a waste removal business but was dumping the waste he was being paid to dispose on the pavement outside his house. Rhondda Cynon Taf Council said that Morgan, of Sunnybank Street, Aberaman, Aberdare, would leave the items on the pavement outside his terraced house for long periods of time, until the items were protruding on to the public road. ‌ They said there appeared to be no limit on what Morgan would leave on the pavement - from piles of tyres, a three-piece-sofa to kitchen work tops and a door. ‌ The council said Morgan, who was trading under the name Dan's Disposal Services, was "blighting the doorstep where he lived and having a huge detrimental effect on his neighbours and wider community." Council officers found that the waste was often completely blocking the pavement and was at risk of causing an injury to members of the public (Image: Rhondda Cynon Taf Council ) The council first received a complaint about Morgan's actions in April 2024 and when enforcement officers visited, they discovered that the items took up the full length of the property and made the public footpath completely impassable. Article continues below They also found that the items were stacked and likely to fall, creating a risk of injury to members of the public.

The council said Morgan was also informed that a Community Protection Warning would be issued if the problem continued. However, just weeks later another complaint was received by the council stating that the issues were ongoing. Officers visited and said they could see that Morgan was continuing to use the pavement as a dumping ground for unsecured waste. ‌ He was given a warning letter with a list of requirements and was advised that if he failed to comply he would be issued with a community protection notice (CPN), an order aimed to at preventing unreasonable behaviour that is having a negative impact on the local community's quality of life, the council has said. Morgan was prosecuted after he ignored repeated warnings from the council about his actions (Image: Rhondda Cynon Taf Council ) A third complaint was received and another visit by officers found large piles of waste outside both No 12 and No 16 Sunnybank Street. The waste on the pavement consisted of two panes of glass, a mirror, a builders tonne sack full of waste, two worktops, a broken-up sofa frame and springs, cushioned seating and a plastic patio chair. ‌ The council said that after ignoring the warning letter, Morgan was issued with a CPN. However, just 10 days later a further complaint was received and the enforcement team said they "once again found that Morgan had failed to remove the items and was continuing to use the public footpath as his personal skip". He was issued with a £100 fixed penalty notice (FPN) and ordered to remove the items and comply with the CPN or further action would be taken. Over the next three months a further three complaints were received and investigated by the Enforcement team and three further FPNs were issued. In total, Morgan was given four FPNs, now totalling £400. ‌ The council said he failed to make the payments and clear the items so the council referred the matter to the courts. Morgan pleaded not guilty to the charges at Merthyr Tydfil Magistrates Court in January 2025 and was given a trial date in March. Morgan failed to attend on the date and it was rescheduled. He once again failed to attend and the case was tried in his absence. Morgan was handed a £250 fine for each of the four FPNs he failed to pay ,made to pay £770 in costs and as well as a £400 victim surcharge, totalling £2170. ‌ Councillor Ann Crimmings, RCT council cabinet member said: "Fly-tipping will not be tolerated, ever. There is never an excuse to blight our public highways, towns, streets and villages with waste, and we will find those responsible and hold them to account. "We didn't have to travel far to find the offender in this case as he chose to literally mess on his own doorstep and ruin the street for his neighbours and wider community. Despite a number of warnings, Mr Morgan chose to continue using the public highway as his own personal skip. "Not only were the items unsightly, but they were unsecured and dangerous to the public. Mr Morgan has now walked away with a substantial fine and a criminal record from the court. Article continues below "Removal of fly-tipping costs hundreds of thousands of pounds each year, which should be spent on key front-line services at a time when budgets are under significant pressures. We will use every power available to us to hold those accountable for their actions."

Private refuse collector fined £2,000 after he simply left piles of clients' rubbish among his own bins instead of proper sites

A private refuse collector has been fined more than £2,000 for dumping piles of rubbish outside his front door instead of taking it to a proper disposal site. Daniel Morgan, 34, charged people to take away their old furniture, ripped-out kitchens and tyres. Morgan - who operated business Dan's Disposable Services - had already been warned after complaints about him leaving bulky items including a three-piece-sofa, kitchen work tops and window frames outside his door. But Morgan carried on using the pavement in Sunnybank Street in Aberdare, South Wales, 'as a refuse skip' despite the warnings. A court heard the dumped rubbish took up the full length of the property and made the public footpath completely impassable. Images show how Morgan left a heap of tyres, door frames and huge bags of building waste that completely blocked the pavement for pedestrians. A third complaint was then received - and council officials found panes of glass, a mirror, a builder's tonne sack full of waste, worktops, a broken-up sofa frame and springs, cushioned seating and a plastic patio chair. Mr Morgan was issued with a £100 Fixed Penalty Notice - but ignored it along with another three. Merthyr Tydfil Magistrates Court fined him a total of £1000, £770 costs and £400 Victim Surcharge, totalling £2170. He denied fly-tipping but failed to turn up to court. Councillor Ann Crimmings, Rhondda Cynon Taf Council's Cabinet Member for Environment and Leisure said: 'We didn't have to travel far to find the offender in this case as he chose to literally mess on his own doorstep and ruin the street for his neighbours and wider community. 'Despite a number of warnings, Mr Morgan chose to continue using the public highway as his own personal skip. 'Not only were the items unsightly, but they were unsecured and dangerous to the public.'
