Report it
We only clear up rubbish, including hazardous waste, that has been dumped on public or council-owned land.

Fly-tips on private land
Clearing dumped rubbish from private land is the responsibility of the landowner. If you are responsible for the land or are a private landowner, you must ensure that your land is as secure as possible in order to prevent people from illegally dumping rubbish on it.
Penalties apply if you allow someone to dump rubbish on your land.
Dispose of rubbish responsibly
There are many ways to safely dispose of your rubbish without breaking the law.
If you鈥檙e not sure when your rubbish is collected, you can check your bin collection days.
If the item you鈥檙e disposing of is too big for your bin, you should book a bulky waste collection with us or drop it off at one of our recycling centres.
You should consider other ways of getting rid of your unwanted items, such as donating it to charity.
If you give your rubbish to someone else to dispose of you must make sure that person or company has a licence to carry waste. You could be liable for a fine if they don鈥檛.
