Dumping unwanted items is against the law and harms our communities. We spend a lot of time and money clearing up dumped rubbish, which we could be spending on making real improvements instead.
Enforcement activity has increased in the district. Movable CCTV cameras are in operation, areas are regularly patrolled, and specialist investigators are working on our behalf.
Are you reporting a fly tip for removal, or reporting information to help catch a fly tipper?
We cleared up this abandoned rubbish in Frankley on Tuesday August 20. We are now investigating where it has come from.
If you have any information about this fly tip, please contact Worcestershire Regulatory Services quoting case reference 11615776.
Tips and advice
Ensure YOUR waste won’t get dumped
An estimated two thirds of fly tipped waste comes from household work. Could your tradesperson be a secret fly tipper?
If someone takes your waste away and dumps it, YOU could be the one facing enforcement action, unless:
Legitimate businesses will always be happy to tell you their waste carrier number and provide a proper receipt.
Doing this helps protects yourself and your community from the illegal dumping of waste.
We all have a legal duty of care to ensure our waste is disposed of correctly. Following this advice can help you prove that you did your duty, and that it wasn’t your fault.
