Shopping trolleys removed from the supermarket car park perimeter end up abandoned in the streets surrounding the shopping centre or dumped somewhere nearby, in this example in water. Loss of trolleys into watercourses presents particular problems in terms of recovery . These abandoned carts become neighbourhood eyesores. Shopping trolley theft is also a costly issue. In the UK 10, 000 new trolleys are stolen every year and many of these end up abandoned. The cost of replacement for retailers is, on average, around £80 per trolley. Dealing with the removal, storage and disposal of abandoned trolleys also imposes a considerable burden on local authorities.
