Show Notes
A recycling truck fire in Glen Parva, caused by crushed batteries, led to a massive waste dump on Lutterworth Road. The council warns against disposing of batteries, vapes, or electrical items in regular bins, as these incidents are on the rise across the UK. Lithium batteries pose a significant risk due to their ability to ignite and spread fire. Residents are advised to recycle batteries and devices at supermarkets, stores, or household tips, and to return vapes to the shop or clearly label single batteries for safe collection.
