shopping trolleys around the town? A new
smartphone app lets you get involved in
geng rid
Peterlee Town Council are working in
partnership with the naonal Trolleywise
campaign to remove discarded trolleys from
the Dene Parks area in the town.
In September 2020 a team of 8 sta used
specialist equipment to remove more than
40 abandoned & unusable shopping trolleys
from the North and South Dene waterways.
As part of a naonwide campaign to
support shops and local communies to
tackle the blight of abandoned trolleys,
members of the public can now report
abandoned trolleys using their smartphones
with a new free-to-use Trolleywise app. You
simply take a photo using the app alerng
the nearest Trolleywise collecon team they will then do the rest!
If you have a smart phone you can
download the free app by vising the Apple
Store or Google Play for android phones and
search for ‘trolleywise’.
