What to do with dead animals on private property

We don't remove dead animals from private residences.

If it's on private land it's the landowner's responsibility to deal with it.

You can dispose of small dead animals in your dark green general waste bin. Information about burying dead animals from GOV.UK

What to do if you hit an animal with your car

If you hit an animal with your vehicle you must report this to the police by using the non-emergency number 101.

You don't need to report animals smaller than dogs.
