Fly-tipping removal: what to expect
Fly-tipping on public land is the council's responsibility, but if waste is dumped on private land, the landowner usually has to pay to remove it. Farmers, businesses, managing agents and private landowners around Ipswich deal with this regularly, from a few bags in a gateway to lorry-loads of builders' waste.
We clear fly-tipped waste from farmland, field gateways, lay-bys on private land, car parks, industrial estates, bin stores and empty plots. We assess the waste first, separate anything hazardous such as asbestos, chemicals or tyres, and take the rest to a licensed facility.
We photograph the site before and after clearance and note anything that might help identify the source, such as addressed paperwork found in the waste. These records can support a report to the council or police, and a claim if you have fly-tipping cover on your insurance.

Dealing with fly-tipping on your land
Do not move hazardous waste yourself
Fly-tipped waste can include asbestos, chemicals, needles and gas bottles. Keep people away and let us assess it before anything is touched.
Report it
Report fly-tipping to Ipswich Borough Council or the police, especially if you have evidence. You can still have it cleared while a report is investigated.
Keep records
Photos, dates and any evidence found in the waste can help with investigations and insurance claims. We provide a photo report with every clearance.
Prevent repeat dumping
Gates, barriers, lighting and signs can reduce repeat fly-tipping. Clearing waste quickly also helps, because a dumped pile attracts more.
Check who you pay
A lot of fly-tipping comes from unlicensed waste collectors. Always use a registered waste carrier, and tell neighbours and tenants to do the same.
