Bonfires and fires

Service Outline

 

Burning is not an acceptable or safe way of getting rid of waste material. As well as causing a nuisance for neighbours, it can damage a person's health and increase background levels of air pollution. Manchester City Council will investigate complaints of smoke nuisance which can result in a Nuisance Abatement Notice being served. The police can also fine anyone who allows smoke to drift across roads causing a danger to road users.
