Abandoned shopping trolleys

Decorative

We do not collect abandoned shopping trolleys on behalf of stores and supermarkets. It is the responsibility of supermarkets to reclaim their abandoned trolleys.

If you see a discarded shopping trolley please contact the store or supermarket direct, or contact Trolleywise to arrange for the trolley to be collected. Trolleywise is a retrieval service that collect and return trolleys on behalf of major retailers.

Please only report abandoned trolleys to the Council if:

  • the trolley is located on public land and has not been collected within 7 days of you contacting the supermarket or Trolleywise
  • the trolley has been filled with rubbish and is on Council land
