Press release
New campaign targets fly-tipping in CornwallResidents in Cornwall are being urged not to be fooled by fly-tippers and use legitimate companies to get rid of their rubbish. ![]() The staged fly-tip at Tehidy Country Park, Illogan Don’t Rubbish Illogan is a week-long campaign by the Environment Agency, Cornwall Council, Devon and Cornwall Police, Trading Standards and Biffa to tackle fly-tipping and waste crime. Areas in Illogan, a village near Redruth, are hot spots for fly-tipping and as part of the campaign, a staged fly-tip will be set up at Tehidy Country Park on Monday 20 September. The controlled fly-tip at Tehidy Country Park is made up of bulky goods which you often see fly-tipped, like white goods and furniture and will only remain in place for a few hours, under supervision, before being removed. But it is hoped the sight at one of Illogan’s beauty spots will create interest and debate about the importance of managing waste properly. Kevin Baker of the Environment Agency said:
Each year, Cornwall Council spends an estimated £250,000 clearing waste that has been fly-tipped around the Duchy. Councillor Martyn Alvey, portfolio holder for Environment and Climate Change at Cornwall Council, said:
Other planned activities by Don’t Rubbish Illogan include chalk stenciling at known fly-tip locations to show these areas are being monitored to warn off dumpers, promotional posters and social media under #dontrubbishillogan.

Notes to editorsThe Buy with Confidence Scheme provides people in Cornwall with a list of local businesses which have given their commitment to trading fairly. Every business listed has undergone a series of detailed checks by Trading Standards officers before being approved as a member of the scheme to ensure that they operate in a legal, honest and fair way.
