  • Scrap Metal Dealers

 

  • Apparently scrap items removed without owners consent
 

ET121709

 

Information request:
  1. Once again it appears "Scrap metal dealers" are operating in our area and they don't worry about consulting owners before removing items they classify as unwanted scrap!. 

In this report a cooker which had been the subject of a scrap trader's enquiry on two previous occasions, was removed from under a tarpaulin at a property in Belfield Road area.  The owner was not consulted.  In a separate incident a lawn mower also disappeared from a garden.

If anyone spots a vehicle apparently engaged in touting for scrap, please note its registration number then let us and/or the Police know. 

  1. The following advert appeared on a local Etwall notice board,  it may well be genuine but the absence of a name and a landline makes it seem very unlikely! 

If they are genuine then I have given them free publicity.....
But use them at your own risk!!!

  1. We reported similar activities on 28th August last.

If you have any other information about these incidents the police would be interested to hear from you.


Any information that might help the police can be phoned to 0845 123 33 33
or, if anonymity is needed, to Crimestoppers on 0800 555111
