Persistent overflowing bins and flytipping

Reported via iOS in the Flytipping category anonymously at 17:10, Tuesday 10 June 2025

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7689924.

Every week these bins are overflowing, are often not collected at all and accompanied by random other items flytipped onto the pavement - this week it’s a suitcase full of toys but has also been a fridge, washing machine etc.

The issue seems to be that the flat’s address is fishponds road - not glen park where the entrance is - and the residents don’t know to/care to take the bins to the corner and the glen park collection doesn’t know to/care to empty them. Please can we try to resolve this issue in a more permanent manner, as it is continuous and attracts vermin as a lot of the waste is food waste.

  • Thank you for taking the time to report fly- tipping to Bristol City Council. We will aim to remove the fly- tip within 3 days, but this depends on its size, scale, location, or whether the fly tip is hazardous.

    Reducing levels of fly tipping is important so please share any evidence of who is doing it with the council.

    If you witnessed who fly-tipped the waste or have evidence (CCTV/photo) please call us on 01179222100, or submit this at https://digital.bristol.gov.uk/ streets-travel/ tell-us-about-a-fly-tipping-incident-you-saw #YourCity.YourCall
