Appeal for information following a series of fly-tipping incidents

07 July 2025

West Northamptonshire Council (WNC) is appealing to the public for help in identifying individuals caught on camera fly-tipping on Alcombe Road in Northampton.  

The incidents occurred between March and May this year, with several people seen leaving rubbish at the same location. 

Fly-tipping is a criminal offence, and the Council is committed to taking firm action against those who blight our communities with their waste.  

“We’re cracking down on those who commit environmental crimes like this. Fly-tipping not only affects our local environment but also places an unfair burden on taxpayers. We urge anyone who recognises the individuals in the footage or has any information to come forward in confidence. We welcome the support of our residents in tackling these crimes.” Cllr Laura Couse, WNC’s Cabinet Member for Adult Care, Public Health and Regulatory Services

Anyone with information is asked to email the Council’s Environmental Crime Team at  [email protected].  

Fly-tipping, littering and other environmental crime can be reported to us here or via our West Northamptonshire Council app
