Rogue traders

🚨 Rogue Door-to-Door Traders 🚨

We’ve recently received reports of individuals going door-to-door offering to carry out rubbish removal and tree surgery work.

While some traders may be legitimate, we want to remind residents to stay vigilant when dealing with anyone who turns up uninvited.

⚠️ Things to watch out for:

Pressure to agree to work immediately
Requests for cash payments or large upfront fees
No company details, paperwork, or waste carrier licence
Poor or incomplete work being carried out
Waste being illegally dumped after collection
✅ How to protect yourself:

Always ask for ID and company details
Check if they are a registered waste carrier
Get quotes in writing and take time to decide
Use trusted, reputable local businesses or council-approved services
Never feel pressured — it’s okay to say no
🌿 Tree work reminder: Qualified tree surgeons should be properly insured and trained. Poor work can be dangerous and costly to fix.

🚛 Waste disposal reminder: If your waste is fly-tipped after collection, you could still be held responsible if you didn’t check who was taking it.

📞 If you feel threatened or suspect illegal activity, please report it to Greater Manchester Police via 101 or Action Fraud / your local council where appropriate.

Let’s work together to keep our neighbourhood safe and tidy.

Greater Manchester Police – Community Update (South Trafford): Rogue Gardeners and Tree-Loppers.
Good afternoon,

We hope you’re all enjoying the current spell of warm weather and making the most of the sunshine across Trafford.

We want to make residents aware that we have received reports of rogue gardening and tree-lopping traders operating in the south of the borough. These individuals are approaching properties and offering to carry out work, often presenting it as a low-cost, cash-in-hand arrangement.

In many cases, once the work has been started or completed, they then attempt to charge significantly higher amounts than initially agreed, particularly for the removal of waste. Some residents have reported feeling pressured into paying these inflated costs.

We would encourage anyone considering this type of work to use reputable, locally accredited businesses and to ensure that quotes are agreed in advance and in writing where possible. Be cautious of anyone offering unsolicited services at your door, especially where payment is requested in cash only.

If you are approached and feel uncomfortable, pressured, or threatened, please trust your instincts. If you feel at risk or in immediate danger, call 999. For non-emergency concerns, incidents can be reported via 101. You can also contact Trading Standards through the Citizens Advice Consumer Service for further advice.

Thank you for your continued support.

To all those celebrating in Brooklands, Trafford.
