The data was obtained by The Star via a Freedom of Information request lodged with Sheffield City Council.
It collated incidents recorded by numerous council teams and Amey, the business behind the city’s Streets Ahead scheme.
The figures revealed 19,531 fly-tipping incidents were recorded, though it was noted some council teams report the locations of incidents in different ways.
As part of the information request, the reports were broken down as locally as possible. This went down to specific streets where fly-tipping was found.
