How we can help
We clear fly-tipping rubbish on public land, Council-maintained roads, riverbanks and the foreshore.
We take fly-tipping seriously and will prosecute those responsible where possible. Please report any extra details that could help with prosecution like descriptions of vehicles and those responsible.
Please note:
- bins or bags incorrectly put out for waste collections are not considered fly-tipping and may take longer to clear
- we can't help with fly-tipping on privately-owned land. We will investigate offences and pass on the request to the land owner where possible.
