She now faces going to court if she refuses to cough up for the Stoke-on-Trent City Council penalty, reports StokeOnTrentLive.The environmental science student, from Tunstall, said: "I was cleaning out the shed and there were these two cardboard boxes. They weren't big. I put them by the wall outside by the rear of the property.
"The boxes were just placed next to the wall by the gate out in the back alleyway. I was about to dispose of them. For two cardboard boxes, it seems extreme."
