The cleaners of the Thames draw from the river 70 ridiculous trolleys in a day

Garbage crews unveiled an incredible 70 shopping carts in one day in a small stretch of the Thames.

London Port Authority employees pulled out dozens of old supermarket wire carts from the banks of the capital's river after spotting a huge group of them caught in the mud at low tide .

The crew aboard the Driftwood III ship used a crane to dislodge wagons, scattered on the banks of the river near Thamesmead, in east London on Monday.

They were looted in various supermarkets, including Morrisons, Aldi, Wilko and Iceland, as well as in some stores that appeared to be able to come from now-defunct stores, such as Kwik Save.

Gareth Dorrian, ALA spokesman, said: "This is the largest number of wagons ever pulled out of the river in a day.

"I can only badume that they were put there by litter bugs at the wrong motivations."

Michael Russell, PLA Marine Officer Afloat, added, "The PLA is working very hard to clean up the trash of the river, but this incredible discovery in a Thames pocket, which is a tide, shows just how much the job is gigantic.

"Throwing wagons into the river is simply reckless, the tide goes out and they get stuck on the foreshore.

"Spilling large objects like this threatens wildlife habitat and could cause environmental damage.

"They also look appalling and, more importantly, could become a danger to the thousands of ships sailing the Thames each year."

The mess of metal will now be removed for recycling.

PLA extracts more than 200 tonnes of floating waste from the river each year, including plastic bottles, traffic cones, bicycles, and sometimes cars using floating pbadive debris collectors.

They are used at key points on the Thames, a 95-mile tidal wave, to trap trash before they get worse, and the trash is then treated, and then dumped or dumped. recycled at various sites around Kent and London.
