Rural crime officers tracked down a van seen fly tipping in west Dorset.
Officers swooped on Sunday evening and seized the van.
A spokesman for the Rural Crime Team said: "This evening (Sunday) we tracked and located this van in the Avon and Somerset area which had been seen fly tipping in rural West Dorset.
"In partnership with Dorset Council, we seized the van under The Environmental Protection Act.
"Our partners in Dorset Council’s enforcement team will now address the fly tipping offences with the vehicle’s owner.
"Dorset's countryside is no place for your waste, and we will take action."
