A skip with rubbish has been placed on Bakers End which is a public highway without permission for several weeks. It has taken the rather limited parking space and the waste is an environmental hazard. Please investigate and remove it. Thank you.

Updates

  • Thank you for reporting this.
    We clear most fly-tips from public streets and pavements within 24 hours of them being reported. Some may take longer if we need specialist equipment or if our enforcement team is investigating.

  • The skip with rubbish has been left on the road for more than a month. It occupies part of the pavement and people and kids have to squeeze past it every day. The skip posed a serious public health and environmental hazard to the local residents. It has been reported numerously and the council has taken no action and no update so far. It is utterly disappointing at the slow response and inefficient service from the council.
