Illegal dumping is a problem in Surrey as in many Canadian cities. It threatens the environment, public health, and community pride. It also costs taxpayers dollars to clean up—dollars which could be better spent on amenities and services.
That's why we have increased enforcement with greater patrols and surveillance cameras at illegal dumping hotspots.
