Large pile of matresses, sofas and fence panels dumped

Reported via desktop in the Flytipping category by Matt Williams at 14:35, Tuesday 30 September 2025

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8233906.

Re-opening report 7250552 as it was closed as "resolved" despite nothing having been done. I've re-uploaded the original photo as the flytipping looks exactly the same as it did 7 months ago, except more mouldy.

There is a large pile of flytipping on the council-owned land behind these houses.

  • 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

  • 1st Feb-25 this was first reported and its still there. It’s an eyesore that I have to put up with seeing everyday. BCC have failed in their responsibilities by not clearing this up in a timely manner.

    Access to the site is from The Crescent as can be seen in the attached map from BCC website (which also clarifies its Council owned property). The access gate is secured with a chain and padlock. Google Earth photo attached for clarity.

    If BCC haven’t found the key for padlock in 9 months its probably lost and they should consider bolt cutters and replacement padlock!!!
