The Council treats this problem very seriously and will take action against anyone caught flytipping waste. Derby City Council in partnership with Derbyshire County Council and the Environment Agency has been working on a project to reduce the amount of fly-tipping.

Reporting Flytipping

If you discover flytipping please report it to us on the above numbers.

What to do:

  • do not touch the waste: flytipped waste can be dangerous - it may contain syringes, broken glass, asbestos, toxic chemicals or other hazardous substances
  • visually inspect the waste; try to determine what the waste consists of and how much there is
  • take note of the exact location and also whether it is in or near water
  • do not disturb the site; there may be evidence that could help identify the culprits and lead to their prosecution

If you see someone flytipping you can report it to the police or to the Council on the numbers above. If possible please try to take down any details such as:

  • the day, date and time you saw tipping
  • what you saw
  • how many people were flytipping and what they looked like
  • what they were actually doing
  • any vehicles involved - their make, colour and registration number.

Where were you when you saw the flytipping:

  • what kind of view you had
  • how far away you were
  • weather and light conditions.

What was tipped:

  • how much
  • what it looked like.

Remember - don't put yourself at risk!

Reducing Flytipping

The Council provides a bulky waste collection service for items that cannot fit in your wheeled bin. For more information on this and about getting rid of larger items pleas see our Bulky Waste Service information.
