There is a perceived problem that private landowners are often victims of fly-tipping. Private landowners range from individual farmers, through to large landowning organisations such as the National Trust.

We have worked with the to produce a fly-tipping prevention guide for landowners along with advice on avoidance and on what to do if you are the victim of fly-tipping. This was published in 2006.
