Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council operate a fixed penalty notice for offenders of fly-tipping which stands at £400, however offenders could face a fine up to £50,000 and a prison sentence of 12 months for a summary conviction.

Conversely, maximum fines are unlimited with prison terms up to five years if you get convicted in a Crown Court.

Cllr Tony Venson, Portfolio Holder for Planning and Enforcement, said:

“We have released these images as we would like to speak to the three individuals involved, the van used isn’t registered to a legitimate company so cannot be traced.

“The Council is committed to tackling fly tipping, taking action against those who chose to use Nuneaton and Bedworth as their own personal dump.”
