Charnwood council recorded 5.5 fly-tipping incidents per 1,000 people a year from 2022-23 to 2024-25, 50% lower than the typical English council's 11.0. In 2024-25 it recorded 1,012, most of them on the highway. Of those, 17 were tipper-lorry loads or bigger, which cost £5,970 to clear. It issued 109 fixed penalty notices, 1 of them a littering fixed penalty notice issued in conjunction with fly-tipping, and brought 1 prosecution.
A fly-tipped toilet on Butthole Lane would be taking local pride a bit too far.
