Authorities have warned land and property owners about a scam in which thousands of old tyres were illegally dumped at leased properties, leaving one victim with a huge clean-up bill.

In one instance, piles of tyres were left at a property in Wungong, in Perth's south-east, leaving the owner with a $100,000 clean-up bill. "In terms of scale, I believe we're talking in the order of hundreds of thousands of tyres … certainly in Western Australia, this is the largest operation of this type that my investigators have come across … so far this is the most bold operation I've seen in this state."Mr Warnock said businesses also needed to ensure they were doing their due diligence.
