The Council is very good at quickly removing reported fly-tipping along our streets and council green open spaces, but we need to put a stop to people dumping their waste thoughtlessly and causing inconvenience to other residents in Wolverhampton.
The campaign ‘Shop a tipper’ encourages residents who spot fly tippers to report the offender to the council for a £100 reward following the payment of a Fixed Penalty Notice or a successful prosecution.
When a Fixed Penalty Notice is paid we will let you know and within 14 days you will receive your Enjoy Wolverhampton gift card.
You will remain anonymous when a Fixed Penalty Notice is issued.
If the Fixed Penalty Notice is not paid we will take the matter to court. In most cases this will require your witness statement, however sometimes we may need you to attend court to support the prosecution. If we do your court expenses are paid.
The city council wants to put a stop to fly tipping and we need your help to catch the culprits to keep your city cleaner, greener and better.
When you report fly tipping, an officer will contact you before taking any action, and your details will be kept in strict confidence.
