If you see abandoned waste that is not actively being dumped, it's important to report it to the council so they can take appropriate action. In Watford, the removal of dumped rubbish on public land is handled by the council, while those on private land are the responsibility of the landowner.
You can report the issue along with details such as the location and type of waste. Here's how the council aims to respond based on the type of waste:
| Type of Waste | Response Time |
|---|---|
| Small (under 3m³) or hazardous | Same or next working day |
| Large (over 3m³) | Within two working days |
