SEE IT! REPORT IT! SCRAP IT!
If you see an incident of fly-tipping, then call the 24 hour national hotline on: 0800 807 060 You can report fly-tipping to your local authority directly or to the Environment Agency in England and Wales or the Scottish Environment Protection Agency.
Before ringing, write down as much information as possible.
* the date, time and place of the occurrence
* what the waste looks like and how much of it there is
* a description of any vehicles involved along with their vehicle's registration numbers.
Remember, never approach fly-tippers. Those who fly-tip are criminals and are unlikely to appreciate being interrupted.
