Fly-Tipping Clearance
Fly-Tipping Clearance is a specialist service focused on the safe, legal, and efficient removal of illegally dumped waste from land, properties, and shared spaces. Fly-tipping is not only unsightly but can also pose serious health, environmental, and legal risks. At House Clearance, we provide a professional response that restores areas quickly while ensuring full compliance with UK waste regulations.
Whether fly-tipped waste appears on private land, residential blocks, commercial premises, or access roads, our trained team manages the entire clearance process responsibly, protecting landowners and managers from liability.
What Is Fly-Tipping Clearance?
Fly-tipping clearance involves the removal of waste that has been dumped illegally without permission. This can include household rubbish, bulky furniture, construction debris, and hazardous materials. Swift action is important, as fly-tipped waste can attract further dumping, vermin, and enforcement action.
House Clearance handles fly-tipping removal with a structured, compliant approach, ensuring all waste is collected by a licensed carrier and disposed of through authorised facilities.

Fly-Tipping Clearance Pricing Explained
Pricing is based on the amount and type of waste rather than fixed rates.
Cost factors include:
• Volume and weight of waste
• Accessibility of the site
• Manual handling requirements
• Need for specialist disposal
This transparent approach ensures fairness and avoids unexpected costs.
Why Professional Fly-Tipping Clearance Matters
Attempting to clear fly-tipped waste yourself can be risky and legally problematic.
Using professional fly-tipping clearance provides:
• Protection from Duty of Care breaches
• Safe handling of unknown materials
• Faster site restoration
• Reduced risk of repeat dumping
• Full documentation of legal disposal
Council services may not cover private land or offer timely removal, making professional clearance the most reliable option.
Legal Compliance and Duty of Care
Under UK law, landowners and occupiers have a Duty of Care to manage waste responsibly.
House Clearance ensures compliance by:
• Operating as a licensed waste carrier
• Using authorised transfer and recycling facilities
• Following proper waste segregation procedures
• Maintaining responsible disposal practices
This protects clients from enforcement action and environmental harm.
Recycling-First and Environmental Responsibility
We are committed to reducing landfill wherever possible. Recyclable materials such as metal, wood, electrical items, and reusable furniture are separated during fly-tipping clearance.
This approach supports sustainability while ensuring all remaining waste is disposed of correctly.
