Have your say on the future of councils in Essex. Councils across Greater Essex are seeking public input on plans to replace the current Local Authority structure with fewer, larger unitary councils.
Fly-tipping
Fly-tipping is the illegal dumping of waste. Please read the information below before reporting a fly-tip to us. If you’re looking to get a third-party contractor to remove your waste, please ensure you read the additional information linked at the bottom of the page.
If you discover fly-tipped waste
- Do not touch the waste - fly-tipped waste can contain dangerous items
- Visually inspect the waste – what does it consist of? How much is there?
- Take note of its exact location and whether it is in/ near water
- Do not disturb the site - there may be evidence that could help identify the culprits and lead to their prosecution
- Take photos if it is safe to do so – please send these to us at streetscene@castlepoint.gov.uk
If you see someone fly-tipping, please tell us
- The date and time and name of the road
- How many people were involved and what they looked like
- What they were doing and what was fly-tipped
- Any vehicles involved - their make, colour and registration number
Warning: please do not approach anyone fly-tipping.
