To tackle instances of Fly tipping

Issued: 19 May 2026

Status Update

We have observed a number of instances in our area in recent months of where fly tipping has occurred and the impact this has had on the community. We have built positive relationships with the local authority where we will support their investigations. This has resulted in a fixed penalty being given to one person for disposing of waste with further investigations which will likely lead to fines. We have even discussed joint patrols to tackle known hot spot areas.
