If a private landowner doesn't remove waste from their property, the council is not able to intervene directly. It is the landowner's responsibility to clear and dispose of any waste on their private land. However, if the waste issue relates to fly tipping on publicly owned land, you can report it to the council.
Here's a quick look at the responsibilities regarding waste management on private land:
| Responsibility | Details |
|---|---|
| Private Landowner | Responsible for clearing waste and disposing of it properly. |
| Council Assistance | Can help with fly tipping on public land only. |
If you're dealing with a fly tipping issue, you can report it by phone or through the fly tipping online form.
