What happens when you report fly-tipping?

First, an enforcement officer will investigate.  Once the investigation is completed we will clear the fly-tipping as soon as possible.

You will receive email updates about the progress of your report if you provide us with your email address when completing the report form.

Oldham Council treats fly-tipping very seriously and will prosecute anyone caught fly-tipping.
