Carmarthenshire Council say the container was abandoned in a lay-by on the C2704 road leading to Llansaint on or before Monday, 27 January 2025.
The council are urging anyone who witnessed suspicious activity in the area or has information about the origin of this container to come forward to identify those responsible for this “environmental crime”.
Members of the public are encouraged to report any relevant details online or via the council’s contact centre at 01267 234567.
Fly-tippers in Wales can face fines of up to £50,000 or imprisonment. Householders who do not ensure their waste is disposed of properly can also be fined £300 if their waste is found to have been fly-tipped.
Cllr Edward Thomas, Carmarthenshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Transport, Waste and Infrastructure Services said: “Fly-tipping is not only an eyesore but a serious environmental crime that affects our communities, wildlife, and public spaces. We are dedicated to tackling this issue and ensuring those responsible are held accountable. I encourage anyone who has seen suspicious activity or has information to come forward.”
