Fly tipping has increased aggressively in the past couple of years in Leeds, with so many streets, estates, parks, and school grounds plagued with fly tipping issues.
The Waste Team have seen huge spikes of enquiries around fly tipping clean ups after Christmas and New Year. There is always an increase of fly tipping during public holidays as, council properties especially, are left unattended.
LeedsLive report that “Leeds is the country’s fly-tipping capital – with more illegally dumped rubbish than anywhere else in the country”
With waste, attracting even more waste, schools, parks and council properties are faced with an unsurmountable amount of rubbish dumped on their property creating fly tipping hotspots.
The Waste Team have been called in to help many councils clear their sites, protecting them from prosecution due to other people’s household waste being dumped illegally. We’ve cleared everything from fridges to tyres and other vehicle parts.
