Common Situations
Where We Clear Fly-Tipped Waste
Fly-tipping happens across all types of private land. Whatever your situation, we can help.
Fly Tip on Your Driveway
Overnight dumping on residential driveways is one of the most common fly-tipping incidents across London. Even if you didn't cause it, you are responsible for clearing it. We attend same-day and photograph all waste before removal for your insurance records.
Fly Tip in Your Garden or Access Way
Garden fly-tipping — furniture, bags, and mixed rubbish dumped over a fence or through a side gate — is covered by the same EPA 1990 obligations. We clear all types: soft furnishings, green waste, electrical items, and mixed loads.
Commercial Yard or Car Park
Business premises, car parks, and industrial yards are frequent targets for large-scale illegal dumping. We clear commercial fly-tips including builders waste, tyres, and pallets — issuing commercial Duty of Care documentation for your audit trail.
Fly Tip Under Council Notice
Received a Fixed Penalty Notice or enforcement notice from the council? We prioritise urgent clearances. Our duty-of-care paper trail confirms the waste was removed legally — evidence you can submit to the council to close the notice.

The Law
Who Is Responsible for Fly Tipping on Private Land?
Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (Section 34), the legal duty to remove fly-tipped waste from private land falls on the landowner — regardless of who dumped it. Local authorities can issue Fixed Penalty Notices (up to £400) or refer cases to the Magistrates' Court where fines can be unlimited.
This applies equally to homeowners with fly-tipped driveways or gardens, landlords with waste dumped on their rental properties, and commercial operators with fly-tipping in their car parks or yards.
WasteWize provides same-day clearance, photographic evidence of what was found and removed, and a Duty of Care Waste Transfer Note — the legal document proving the waste was handled correctly. This evidence is accepted by councils for Fixed Penalty Notice appeals and by insurers for fly-tipping damage claims.
Reporting Guide
How to Report Fly-Tipping in London
Reporting fly-tipping creates an official record and may deter future dumping. Here's what to do alongside booking clearance.
1
Photograph the Waste
Photograph the dumped waste before anyone touches it. Include street signs or landmarks for location reference. We do this too when we arrive.
2
Report to the Council
For waste on public land, report via your borough council website or gov.uk/report-fly-tipping. For private land, the report is optional but builds an enforcement record.
3
Check for Evidence
Look for names, addresses, or business details in the dumped waste — this evidence can help the council trace the fly-tipper and pursue prosecution.
4
Book Licensed Clearance
Call WasteWize on 07929 771954. We attend same-day, photograph all waste in situ, and issue a Duty of Care WTN — satisfying your EPA 1990 obligation.
Fly Tipping Removal — Frequently Asked Questions
- Am I legally responsible for fly-tipped waste on my private land?
- Yes. Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the landowner — not the fly-tipper — is legally responsible for removing dumped waste from their property. This applies to private driveways, gardens, commercial yards, and industrial land. Failure to remove it can result in a Fixed Penalty Notice from the council or prosecution. WasteWize provides same-day clearance with a full duty-of-care paper trail to protect you.
- How much does fly tipping removal cost in London?
- Most fly-tipping clearances across London and the Home Counties are priced between £80 and £350 depending on the volume and type of waste. A small dumped load (a few bags and a mattress) typically costs £80–£150. A large fly-tip with furniture, builders waste, and mixed rubbish is usually £200–£350. We provide a fixed quote after you send photos — no site visit needed for most jobs.
- Should I report fly-tipping to the council before booking clearance?
- For fly-tipping on public land (roadsides, parks, public car parks), report to your local council via gov.uk — they are responsible for removal. For waste on your private land, you are responsible for removal. We recommend reporting the incident to the council and police as well as booking clearance — our photographs before removal provide evidence for any council report or insurance claim.
- Can you remove fly-tipped waste from a private driveway or garden?
- Yes — private driveways, front gardens, back gardens, garages, and outbuildings are all standard jobs. We are EA-licensed to collect controlled waste from private land and provide a Waste Transfer Note confirming legal disposal. Most private residential fly-tips can be cleared same-day.
- Can you remove hazardous fly-tipped waste such as asbestos?
- We remove the vast majority of fly-tipped materials including furniture, rubble, garden waste, electrical items, and tyres. For suspected asbestos or clinical waste, we assess on-site and arrange specialist disposal at cost — we'll advise clearly when quoting. Never disturb suspected asbestos yourself before a licensed assessor has inspected it.
- How quickly can you attend a fly-tipping clearance in London?
- Same-day attendance is standard for most London and Home Counties fly-tip clearances — we aim to be on-site within a few hours of booking for urgent cases. For jobs under council notice or presenting a safety risk, call 07929 771954 directly and we will prioritise attendance.
- What documentation do I receive after fly-tipping clearance?
- You receive a Duty of Care Waste Transfer Note (WTN) by email immediately after clearance. This is the legal document — required under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 — proving the waste was removed and disposed of by a licensed carrier. We also send the pre-removal and post-clearance photographs. This package is accepted by councils for Fixed Penalty Notice appeals and by insurers for fly-tipping damage claims.
- Do you cover the whole of London and the Home Counties?
- Yes — we cover all London boroughs and the surrounding Home Counties including Middlesex, Surrey, Hertfordshire, Essex, Berkshire, and Buckinghamshire. Same-day attendance is available across all of these areas. Use the contact form or call 07929 771954 to confirm availability in your specific postcode.
