If you witness or have information about someone fly-tipping, tell us and we'll investigate.  

If someone is fly-tipping now, call the police on 101. Do not approach or confront them or search through the rubbish yourself.

It'll help us if you can tell us about:

  • who's fly-tipping, for example, their name and address if you know it and what they look like
  • when and where you saw them fly-tipping
  • any vehicles involved, for example the make, colour and registration number
  • any company details, for example, the name on a company vehicle they were using

If you reported it to the police, also tell us the CAD number they gave you.
