Why does San Antonio have so much illegal dumping? KSAT Explains

from KSAT Explains Hosted by KSAT and Graham Media Group

You’ve probably seen it -- junk dumped alongside a road as if someone didn’t know what else to do with it or didn’t care to find out. The KSAT Explains team found junk along a quiet residential street near Loop 410 and Rigsby avenue. A mattress, a toilet, an old carpet, a car seat, paint cans and more piled up on an empty lot. On this particular day, city crews were out cleaning up the mess. “There’s really no need for this because we have many options to dispose of unwanted items,” Gutierrez said. And yet, it still happens on every side of San Antonio. And not just on city streets. Major highways, too.
