Fly-tipping

Land owners are responsible for removing any fly-tipping found on private land. However, you should always report fly-tipping to us. If through our investigations we are able to identify and prosecute the fly-tippers we can apply for clean-up costs to be reimbursed.

There are a number of steps that you can take to help prevent fly-tipping on your land:

• Install gates and barriers, and improve visibility in the area
• Keep areas tidy and remove any fly-tipped waste quickly to discourage others
• Deter potential fly-tippers with signage or cameras
• Work with others including your neighbours, local businesses and any existing partnerships
