What We Do
The team's main role is to safely dismantle cannabis farms found across the West Midlands. This is done by:
Cannabis factories are dangerous places, normally converted from ordinary homes. Often the electricity meter has been bypassed and overloaded electrical circuits run close to water-filled pipes.
The team make these dangerous buildings safe by dismantling the set-up, this helps to prevent injuries to colleagues or partners who may need to enter the building.
All cannabis plants are burnt at a 'waste to energy' plant. This is overseen by a police officer to ensure the cannabis never makes its way back onto the streets.
If you think that you are living next to a building where cannabis is being grown, and you want to report this to us, visit this page.
