If I put a tyre in my garden, put some soil on it and plant some flowers in it. Have I fly-tipped a tyre?

Haha I did think that but the same applies, the landlord would charge you for removal of the tyre when you move out. It still wouldn't be fly-tipping, in my opinion.What if he's only renting ?

Andi, go to the Drs. I think you need to have a chat about what's going on upstairs!

Read the Tenancy agreement, it might specify whether you have to remove your personal belongings before leaving.
Even if that was the case it still wouldn't be fly tipping unless you buried it after leaving.
If you're doing that, you probably have bigger problems to worry about over being done for fly tipping.

Actually it winds my goat when I see fly tipped stuff in Epping Forest! Such a beautiful place ruined by seeing peoples old bath tubs, cubboards and general **** laying about the place. I presume it's the tradies being cheaparses

Having lived in the area for many years, my money’s on the local caravan utilising nomadic travellers.
I'm really not surprised there is so much fly tipping nowadays. I took a small bag of general rubble and an offcut of plasterboard to my local dump a few weeks ago and was charged almost £20. Although I appreciate that plasterboard has tight recycling requirements it was just a small offcut. The amount of waste for the £20 was just not in proportion at all. No wonder people regularly fly tip.

Weird, we drove to out local recycling centre (which has landfill/tip options too) and recycled/dumped a car's worth for free.
No, but you have ruined your garden.
I think it depends on where you live. My 'recycling centre' (local dump) charges very differently to where my brother lives.

No, it's recycling. People have done this for years.
As for fly tipping in general, It's disgusting that people actually go out of their way and tip in remote rural areas. There's a spot right in the middle of the country side where I run and there's always something been tipped there. Last year, someone tipped out used oil in barrels along the country lane at the back of where I live. Out of about a dozen, 4 of them split open. I shouldn't be surprised; humans are lazy **** and have no equilibrium with the natural world.

I wish the Police would do something like this in the UK - £41,000 would pay for a lot of CCTV.

I wonder if he then had a thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat and if it was Officer Obie that arrested him.
This is happening all over the country!! Building refuse bags dumped along country roads. Its the people doing up their houses on the cheap, shameful.
When I have ever fly tipped it was simply to throw some rubbish from my car (drink bottles etc.) into a passing skip, or bin. Never just out into the open.
These people have no respect for their country.
At least when someone has dumped a grow its soil and plants and degradable, but building waste??! Scum.
Now to jump back onto my dpf deleted oil burning high horse...
