What Should I Do If the Fly Tipping Is on Private Land?

If you encounter fly-tipping on private land, the responsibility for addressing it lies with the landowner. Here are the steps you can take:

1. Contact the owner of the land if you're not the owner yourself. They should take action to remove the waste.
2. Report it to the council if you believe it poses a risk or is in a public area. However, Coventry Council will not remove fly-tipping from private land but can investigate if it's causing issues.

If you have evidence, it’s also important to report the incident to help identify the culprits. You can report fly-tipping online via Coventry’s platform: Report fly-tipping.

Remember to avoid touching the waste, as it could be dangerous!
