Changes in the law mean you need to safeguard yourself when hiring contractors such as builders, landscape gardeners, house clearers or scrap metal merchants who remove waste items from your property. These people need to be registered as a waste carrier with the Environment Agency and you have a responsibility to check this. If flytipping occurs through the use of a non-registered waste carrier you could face being fined.
Follow these simple steps to help protect yourself and the environment:
1. Ask for their waste carrier registration number
2. Check the number with the Environment Agency online or by calling 0870 506506
3. If they are not registered don't use them
4. If you see someone flytipping call 0845 345 0210 providing a description of the person and the vehicle details as well as the location if you can.
