  • You can report cases of fly-tipping on private land to us, although it is the landowner’s responsibility to clear the waste.

    Our Environmental Enforcement Team can only investigate if there is enough evidence available, e.g. witness statement, CCTV footage, evidence in the waste, etc.
    When you report, please state if you’re able to provide any evidence to support our investigation.

    If there is enough evidence, once the case is referred to the Environmental Enforcement Team for investigation, we will mark the report as closed on the system.

    If there is no evidence of the fly-tipping being committed, or who the waste originally belonged to, we are unable to investigate and proceed with your report.

    State changed to: Closed

  • Thank you for your report,

    The reason this report is marked as closed or marked as on private land, is because of where the pin was located, if the pin for example is placed ontop of a car , house , tree or bush , it will automatically mark the report as private land.

    Customer Services have moved the pin on the map to PCC land, and this has generated a removal report with Aragon Direct Services.

  • Aragon Direct Services were unable to clear the reported fly-tip. This may be due to one of the following reasons: the items could not be located, they may be situated on private land, they may contain hazardous materials such as asbestos requiring specialist removal, or the report may be a duplicate of one already received.

    Even if your report is marked as closed – no further action, please be assured that it will still be reviewed. The Peterborough City Council Customer Services Access Specialist Team will carry out further investigation and respond with an outcome.

    Please note that fly-tipping is only cleared from land owned or maintained by Peterborough City Council. Aragon Direct Services are not permitted to remove waste from private land, as this remains the responsibility of the landowner.

    In some cases, the council’s environmental enforcement team may also carry out further investigation.

    State changed to: No further action
