Thank you for providing information to the Litter1 online reporting system. A toll-free litter hotline is also available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day to take litter reports: 866-LITTER-1 (866-548-8371). You can also email the same information to litter1@ecy.wa.gov.

Tickets cannot be issued based on this online report. Instead, the license plate will be cross-referenced with the owner who will be sent a letter from Washington State Patrol informing them of the fines litterers could face.

After you click on the 'submit' button below, your litter report will be forwarded to the litter staff and you will be redirected back towards the litter website.
