Report fly-tipping

The illegal dumping of rubbish is called fly-tipping. We'll clear it up within 10 days of it being reported, or within 24 hours if it includes dangerous waste like needles.

If the rubbish is on private land you can either remove this yourself, or you can call 01752 668000 for a quote for us to remove it.

Fly-tipping is an environmental crime, as is littering, not clearing up your dog's mess and fly-posting. This page has examples of fly-tipping in Plymouth - if you are caught fly-tipping you could face a £400 fixed penalty notice. Find out more about environmental crime.
