Continuous rubbish overload

Reported via mobile in the Flytipping category anonymously at 08:35, Fri 20 June 2025

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7737330.

At number 17 Hedwick Str rubbish, including bin bags filled with food leftovers, is constantly overflowing the bins. Bags dumped outside are attracting foxes at night which leads to food waste and packaging being left all over the pavement. It smells, especially in the hot weather and we already had maggots all over the pavement and on our doorstep. The issue is ongoing for the last couple of years. I already tried to contacting the house owner with poor results. Can you do anything?
