SOUTH Staffordshire Council is trying to find the person who dumped a trailer in Lawnswood.
The trailer was left abandoned yesterday (Wednesday, August 17) in Lawnswood Road and even though the district authority have tried to trace the owner, so far they have been out of luck.
A council spokeswoman said: “Although it has a DHL sticker on the back they disposed of it some time ago, so do not have the records of it anymore.
“We are getting a specialist company in to remove it as the brakes have gone on, so it has to be put on to a low loader, which will be at a considerable cost to the council.
“At the moment we estimate the costs to be about £750 but it could always be more.
“Why anyone would dump a trailer is beyond me, but if anyone was around yesterday and saw the trailer being left, or if they have any information which could help us find the owner, we want them to get in touch.”
Anybody with information about the trailer’s owner should call South Staffordshire District Council on 01902 626200.
