Council works with the RID Squad to monitor and investigate illegally dumped waste.
If you witness illegal dumping or find dumped materials, please submit an online form to Regional Illegal Dumping Squad (RID). Or you can contact RID on 131 555. You can also report illegally dumped waste directly to Council using the Log It Fix It function.

Illegal dumping can:
- Cause health hazards
- Cost Council and ratepayers money
- Degrade the environment
- Lower property values if areas become less attractive to prospective landowners.
It is an offence to litter or illegally dump waste under the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997.
Fines apply to individuals or corporations responsible for illegally dumped waste.
Thank you for your feedback.
