Fly tipping
We are responsible for street cleaning and we clear dumped rubbish (fly-tipping) on the public highway and highway verges, where we will remove it within three days of being reported.
Common types of fly-tipping include dumped tyres, waste from buildings and demolition work, fridges, freezers and garden waste.
People found guilty of fly-tipping can face unlimited fines or a prison sentence.
Who's getting rid of your rubbish
You could face an unlimited fine or prison if you do not use someone with a waste carriers licence to take away your rubbish,
Search for registered waste carriers on the Environment Agency website.
Registering for a waste carriers licence
For a waste carriers licence visit the Evironment Agency website.
