⚠️ DUMPERS BEWARE This is what some of our neighborhoods face. The 2000 block of Waterloo St and the intersection of G St & E Willard St were dumped on before our crews cleaned up. The cameras are being installed and you will be prosecuted. #PHLstopsIllegalDumping
Smile! You’re on Dump Cam — Illegal dumping will be prosecuted. 📸
The drop-off sites were not listed as a meet-up location for contractors! PERIODT!#PHLStopsIllegalDumping
No More Dumping: Cameras Are Watching! 📹 We're stepping up our efforts to keep our community clean! More cameras are now up in illegal dumping hotspots to catch dumpers in the act so they can be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. #PHLStopsIllegalDumping
One of the biggest challenges we’re facing now is illegal dumping. The 6300 block of Haverford Ave, and the 5600 block of Grays Ave received cleanups by our crews. WARNING: Illegal dumping is being tracked. Fines are up to $5,000 per item, per incident. #PHLStopsIllegalDumping 📹
All of the 60+ dumpsites have been closed, yet those who took advantage, continue to take advantage. WARNING: We are and will continue to crack down on illegal dumping all across the city. Don't believe us, just watch! 📸
