All of our flytips on public highways are picked up without additional charge by Hounslow Highways - a private contractor who have committed to remove reported flytips within 24 hours - and do that virtually every time. We also have a dedicated service who follow up flytips and fine generally £400. But we do it in targeted areas to make it financially viable and we also do a lot of education. Quite often tenants of private landlords are told to dump things on the street until the council intervenes. Not against publicising and we have done it sometimes but it legally can be fraught |
