Greener Ealing Ltd, our rubbish and recycling contractor, works hard to collect as many fly-tips as possible, as quickly as it can. Currently, 98% of reported fly-tips are collected within 2 working days.
To identify fly-tippers and issue fines, Greener Ealing use evidence found in the dumped waste itself, CCTV footage, and reports from witnesses.

Penalties and fines for fly-tippers
Fly-tipping is a criminal offence.
We will fine or prosecute people who dump rubbish in the street. It carries a maximum penalty of an unlimited fine or up to 5 years in prison.

It is also an offence to allow fly-tipping on your land or land that you rent.
