Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7401152.

5 tins of paint have been left ouside this property at 29 Kensington Road, St George, Bristol BS5 7NB by the owners of this house. However they as the owners have not removed them safely, and they probably think that someone will collect them and use them from the pavement. The owners also need to be informed that this is hazardous for young children and the general public. They need to dispose of any used paint in a safer manner. The 5 tins of paint need to be removed by the council and the owners also informed that they must not place 5 cans of paint on the pavement outside their house. They have been there for several days now.
