Pretty awful.... Flytipping Campaign 2012
We are running an anti flytipping campaign from January
-March 2012 to try and reduce the number of flytipping incidents we
get year on year in our borough.
Look out for new banners on our refuse vehicles when you are out
and about and always be vigilant when you suspect someone of
flytipping or acting suspiciously with a vehicle loaded with
rubbish.
We will be sending out information to all businesses in Redditch
about their responsibilities with rubbish to ensure it does not
pass into the hands of an illegal waste carrier.
We will also be carrying out random spot checks on businesses to
see if they have the legal documents proving they have a trade
waste contract in place, anyone that doesnt may be liable to a £300
fine.
How you can help...
If you hire anyone that takes away waste from your home
(plumber, gardener, builder etc..) you need to make sure they are
registered to do so. If they dump your waste you can
be held liable for the fine.
To find a registered waste carrier see the link below or ask for
their licence number and give the Environment Agency a call on
 08708 506 506.

If you witness a flytipping incident you
should:
- Record details of any vehicle involved, especially the
registration number
- Record descriptions of the people involved
- Record the time and date of the incident
- Record the location, type and amount of waste
Give us a call in the contact centre and we will pass the
details onto the enforcement officers, information is always kept
confidential. 01527 534123
Remember never put yourself in danger by touching the waste
or tackling someone who is dumping the waste.
