Repeat offender given £600 fine for fly-tipping next to public bin - Credit: BREAKLAND COUNCIL A Thetford resident who admitted to regularly fly-tipping waste next to a public bin in the town has been fined £600. Reports from locals that domestic waste was frequently being left by a community litter bin in St Martins Way prompted an investigation by Breckland Council to identify the culprit. Gordon Bambridge, executive member for waste and environment at Breckland Council, said: Leaving waste next to the bin is just as reckless as any other fly-tipping incident, as it impacts the local community and environment.

Fly-tipping incidents cost Norfolk councils £97k last year

He said: We have been making concerted efforts to both educate local residents, whilst taking enforcement action to ensure serial fly-tippers are punished. “Our enforcement team work incredibly hard not only to bring fly-tippers to justice, but repeatedly look at re-education, and prevention which all play a major contribution in reducing fly-tipping. We are incredibly proud to see the reduction (in fly-tipping), however we know more can be done and we are investing in more resources to see that happen.” Flytippers in Norfolk have been fined more than £35,000 since 2012, with Great Yarmouth being responsible for £22,804. But despite it costing Norfolk councils almost £100,000 to clear up the mess caused by fly-tipping in 2019, only £730 worth of fines were collected.
