Flytipping. The service will operate with one sideloader vehicle and four operatives (2 crews) on a 4 x 3 shift pattern. Flytipping removal is largely undertaken as a reactive service, responsive to customer complaints and ‘in-house’ requests (e.g. from Members, enforcement staff and partners), although the crews do have regular ‘hot spots’ to check on a pro-active basis. We aim to remove all reported fly tips within 36 hours of receiving the request, unless it requires specialist equipment or treatment (e.g. asbestos/ chemicals). The service will work with the Regulatory team to investigate, deter and prevent future instances of fly tipping, and to resolve long standing fly tipping ‘hot spots’.
Flytipping. The team will aim to respond to reported instances of flytipping on public land within 24 hours. This will usually involve an initial visit by enforcement staff to assess whether sufficient evidence can be gathered to enable a legal notice to be issued or fine/prosecution to be made. If the flytip is then clear to be removed by LCC then our flytip crew will do this as soon as possible, usually within 48 hours.

Where flytipping has occurred on land belonging to another Council Department or the ALMO it is the responsibility of the landowner to clear. However, the Locality Team will work with the owning Department to provide support for clearing the land to ensure clean up is carried out swiftly, considering the best use of resources. The service will work with the Regulatory team to investigate, deter and prevent future instances of fly tipping, and to resolve long standing fly tipping ‘hot spots’.
