As you may be aware, a major clean-up is currently taking place on Ings Lane. This initiative aims to improve the area and encourage all residents to take pride in their community.

It’s a great opportunity for everyone to take ownership of the space and help maintain a clean and tidy environment. Let’s work together to keep Ings Lane looking its best.

Please report any instances of fly-tipping so they can be addressed promptly.

Everyone is responsible for their own waste and has a duty of care to dispose of it appropriately. Improper disposal affects many people—not only is the waste unsightly, but it can also attract flies and vermin, pose health risks, and lead to further fly-tipping and other anti-social behaviour.

If you witness fly-tipping, please use the ‘Report It’ page on the NELC website and click on ‘Keeping Our Area Clean’, or call NELC on (01472) 313131.

Do not approach anyone or attempt to search through the waste, as this may be harmful. A description of the individuals involved, along with any vehicle details (if applicable), the date and time of the incident, and the type of waste deposited would greatly assist any investigation.

Please note: if NELC cannot prove beyond all reasonable doubt who left the rubbish, they cannot enforce its removal.

LHP, ITC, and NELC work closely together to tackle fly-tipping and will actively seek evidence during removal. Any LHP customers found fly-tipping or failing to make appropriate arrangements for waste disposal may be in breach of their tenancy agreement and risk losing their tenancy.

Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to keeping Ings Lane clean.

There are several ways you can help keep the area clear and dispose of your waste correctly:

• Work with your local community – Organise regular clearance days and/or hire a skip with your neighbours. Just taking a few minutes each week/fortnight to litter pick or remove larger items from the area can make a big difference. For litter pick advice visit: www.nelincs.gov.uk/LitterPicks. You can also use the services below together to share any costs. If you have a car, help your neighbours with their extra waste by taking it to one of our tips.

• Community Recycling Centres (CRCs aka tips) – Household waste can be taken free of charge to our two tips. There are some restrictions in place, and you may need to register your vehicle online before you visit: www.nelincs.gov.uk/Tip

• Bulky Household Waste Collection Service – For more details and to book a collection visit: www.nelincs.gov.uk/BulkyWaste or call (01472) 326288.

• Hire a private licensed clearance company/waste carrier – Always ask for their waste carrier’s registration number. Check a registration on the Environment Agency website. You should also obtain a receipt or waste transfer note.

Working together we can make Immingham a safe and pleasant environment for everyone to enjoy. Thank you in anticipation of your support.

Despite snowy and cold weather conditions Lincolnshire Housing Partnership (LHP) were joined by North East Lincolnshire Council's Environment Enforcement Team on the monthly patch audit. This month we inspected the inner sanctum of the Reedmere Estate. Issues identified included fly-tipping, grounds maintenance, overgrown trees/shrubs and some properties have caused us concern that LHP will visit.

After the walkabout we held our monthly Neighbourhood Action Plan meeting - if you wish to get involved with either of these activities please get in touch,

October’s monthly patch audit took place last week with the focus on the area around Battery Street and Worsley Road.

Dear Resident,

On Thursday 18th September 2025, a Ward Walk was conducted with partners and stakeholders. During our Ward Walk we noticed that there was a lot of fly tipping present within residential areas.

This caused me some concern due to several reasons, namely:

· Health hazards that this can impose

· Dangerous situation caused for our children (due to some sharp implements like glass etc) lying about

· It does not make the area look nice.

There are several options available for agencies when dealing with fly tipping (like prosecution) and although this is an option, I would like us collectively to look at the prevention side.

There is a saying that prevention is better than cure and I am after your help.

Our partners/stakeholders and I are looking into the following and hoping that you would love to be a part of it, namely.

· Obtaining of skips which would assist with placing all items within and away from our green spaces.

· Creating of litter pick teams and volunteers are required.

Once I have received the results from our partners and stakeholders in relation to our Ward Walk – I will share them with you.

If you see anyone who is fly tipping – you can report it on the following methods, namely:

How to Report Fly-Tipping in Immingham

· Determine the location of the waste:

· Public or Council Land: If the waste is on public or council property, report it to NELC.

· Private Land: If the waste is on private land, you should inform the landowner and then report it to NELC.

· Gather information:

Provide as many details as possible to the council, including:

· Location: The exact location of the fly-tip, which can be plotted on a map.

· Date and Time: When you saw the waste.

· Type of Waste: A description of what has been dumped.

· Persons Involved: Details of any individuals seen dumping the waste.

· Vehicle Details: If applicable, include the vehicle's registration number.

· Report the incident:

· Online Form: The most effective way to report fly-tipping is by using the online reporting form on the NELC website.

· Do not confront:

Never approach or confront individuals involved in fly-tipping, as this could put you at risk.

· Consider contacting Crimestoppers for serious cases:

· If you have information about large-scale illegal dumping or hazardous waste, you can report it anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via their online form.

We all take pride in our area as we live and work there and I am hopeful that you will help me to make our area better and safer place to live and work.
