Two vehicles have been seized as part of ongoing fly-tip investigations after a series of incidents in Bromley.

The vehicles were seized a short distance away from the Bromley borough’s boundary.

As investigations are ongoing, further details cannot currently be disclosed.

Bromley Council is appealing for anyone with any further information about fly-tipping cases to come forward and notify them at www.bromley.gov.uk/envirocrime.

There are rewards of up to £500 available for people who provide information which leads to successful prosecution.

Councillor Angela Page, Bromley’s Executive Councillor for Public Protection and Enforcement, said: “Our investigations into the fly-tips where we recently appealed for information are ongoing, but we would encourage residents to assist us in our efforts to put a stop to this.

“If anyone has any information about any incident, please come forward to help with our investigation.

“And as a reminder, information leading to a successful prosecution of the offender will be rewarded up to £500.”

A tipper truck was crushed last month after the council seized it for having links to fly-tipping incidents during the pandemic.

Bromley council advises that people who are looking to use disposal services to ask see to see the permit of the tradesperson they have hired.

This is to check what kind of waste disposal or recovery the business is registered for.

The maximum penalties for fly-tipping on summary conviction are a £50,000 fine and/or twelve months imprisonment.

On conviction in a Crown Court, the maximum penalties include an unlimited fine and/or five years imprisonment.
