Fly Tipping

Fly tipping is any waste which is dumped without authority. Your local District Council has a responsibility to collect fly tipping from public land such as highways etc. If you see any fly tipping which looks like it may be on public land please report it to your local District Council.

Where waste is fly tipped on private land it is the responsibility of the land owner to arrange its collection and disposal.

Fly tipping is illegal.  If you have any information concerning the identities of individuals responsible for fly tipping please contact the Environment Agency, who are responsible for enforcing the law regarding waste disposal.
