What is flytipping?
Flytipped waste generally consists of items of
rubbish that are dumped illegally instead of being disposed of
properly.
The most common types of flytipped waste
are:
- Household waste
- Large domestic items such as fridges and mattresses
- Garden waste
- Commercial waste such as builders rubble and tyres
Why is flytipping a problem?
- It is expensive to remove – and clearing it up
costs taxpayers and the council thousands of pounds each year.
- Unsightly – flytipping is a sign of a
neglected neighbourhood and is associated with increased levels of
crime and the fear of crime. It also discourages investment
and new businesses from moving into the area.
