Waste clothing has been illegally dumped beside the clothes-bank facility at Centrepoint Retail Park in Roscommon town, prompting frustration among local residents and community groups.
Large piles of textiles have gathered around the bins, creating an eyesore and raising concerns about hygiene and safety.
Roscommon Tidy Towns volunteers say the problem is recurring despite regular clean-ups.
They warn that the misuse of recycling banks undermines community efforts to keep the area clean.
Calls have been made for increased monitoring and stricter enforcement to deter further dumping.
