Report flytipping
Flytipping is the illegal deposit of any waste onto land, eg. waste dumped or tipped in a place with no licence to accept it. This can be both on public or private land.
Do not search the fly tip yourself as it may contain items which may be hazardous and it may also contaminate any evidence contained within the fly tip.
The fixed penalty for flytipping is £400.
