Illegal dumping is the unlawful deposit or disposal of waste larger than litter, on any land (public and private land) that is not a designated landfill (ie road sides, paddocks, vacant blocks).
Illegal dumping usually involves bags of household rubbish, old furniture, tyres, garden waste or other general household items. Illegal dumping can also include illegal land filling, which is waste used as fill material with the consent of the owner or occupier, but without the necessary Council or EPA approvals.

To ensure that our local community remains clean and to protect our environment, please report any illegal dumping activities that you see.
