We work hard to keep your streets and pavements clean and tidy. Use the online forms highlighted below or |contact us to report a badly littered street, fly-tipping or dead animal.
We aim to clean residential streets every four weeks. The gutters and foot-ways are mechanically swept and cleared of litter and general dirt. 'Special cleans' might be required for roads with a lot of car parking and residents will be notified before these cleans take place. Town Centres are cleaned daily to ensure they remain pleasant.
|Report a badly littered street online and we'll aim to litter-pick within a few hours and have any litter bins emptied the next working day.
Dropping litter (including cigarette ends, chewing gum or sweet wrappers) is an offence under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Anyone caught littering may receive an on-the-spot £75.00 penalty or face a court fine of up to £2,500.
|Report fly-tipping online
Dumping waste is an offence which carries a maximum fine of £50,000 and possible imprisonment. Contact us if you see anyone fly-tipping waste and make a note of any details such as the vehicle registration. We investigate all reports of fly tipping and arrange for the removal and proper disposal. Our target is to remove it within five days if it is on public land.
|Report a dead animal online
Dead animals will be removed from the public highways and open spaces when reported.
Road hazards, such as oil spills or dangerous obstructions, should be reported to |Surrey County Council.
