Suffolk Coastal can deal with accumulations of rubbish on
private land if the waste material is providing shelter for rats or
mice, or consists of offensive, decomposing matter. In such cases
we may serve a notice on the owner or occupier of the land
requiring them to remove it within a certain period of time. If
they do not comply, we can arrange for its removal and recover the
costs incurred from the person on whom we served the notice.
If you want to report an accumulation of rubbish you can contact
our Environmental Protection Team on 01394 444624
or email
environmental.protection@suffolkcoastal.gov.uk.
Refuse on the public highway or footpaths should be reported to
Suffolk Coastal Services on 01394 444000 or email
scsltd@suffolkcoastal.gov.uk.
