Tackling Fly-Tipping in the UK

Fly-tipping is a growing problem across the UK, damaging communities, harming the environment, and costing local authorities millions of pounds each year. As incidents increase, the need for professional investigation and enforcement becomes critical. Dion International Ltd provides specialist fly-tipping investigation services designed to identify offenders, gather evidence, and support effective enforcement action.

Understanding the Fly-Tipping Problem

Fly-tipping is the illegal dumping of waste on land not licensed to receive it. This includes household rubbish, commercial waste, construction debris, and large items such as mattresses or appliances. The impact of fly-tipping extends far beyond visual pollution.

  • Pollution and ecosystem damage
  • Contamination of land and waterways
  • Harm to wildlife and natural habitats
  • Public health risks from vermin and waste
  • Increased clean-up costs for councils
  • Reduced property values and investment
