Fly tipping

Fly tipping is defined as an 'illegal deposit of any waste onto land that does not have a licence to accept it'. Tipping a mattress, electrical items or a bin bag full of rubbish in the street causes a local nuisance and makes an area look ugly and run down.

You local council is responsible for investigating, clearing and taking appropriate enforcement action in relation to small scale fly tipping on public land which carries a fine of up to £50,000 (unlimited if the case goes to the Crown Court) or an offender can even be sent to prison.

We ask if you witness any person fly tipping not on our land please gather as much evidence and report this to you local council.

If you witness any person flytipping on Hafod land please report to us and include a photograph using the Hafod 24/7 app. We will take action against the person(s) as this is a prohibited behaviour.
