When you report fly tipping to West Lothian Council, here's what happens next: if the waste is on council-owned land, a crew will be dispatched to collect it. They'll also look for evidence related to the source of the waste, which could lead to a Fixed Penalty Notice if culprits are identified. If the fly tipping is on private land, the council will notify the landowner of their responsibility to clean it up.
Here’s a quick overview of the process:
| Step | Details |
|---|---|
| Report Fly Tipping | Via online form or by calling 01506 280000 |
| On Council Land | Collection crew sent to remove waste |
| Evidence Gathering | Crew looks for evidence of dumpers, which may lead to fines |
| On Private Land | Council notifies landowner, who is responsible for cleanup |
