Abandoned shopping trolleys can block paths and roads, damage property and end up in local waterways. Find out how to report them and who is responsible for collecting them.

How to report abandoned trolleys

For the fastest collection, report trolleys directly to the store responsible. Dedicated retrieval services respond more quickly than the City. Reporting via the dedicated channels also helps retailers understand the scale of the issue and assist in allocating the necessary resources.
