Eagle-eyed residents are being urged to turn in flytippers who left this mess near Festival Leisure Park.
The rubbish was dumped within the last few days on an old slip road leading off Cranes Farm Road, Basildon.
It contains household rubbish and old furniture, and is currently blocking the way for pedestrians and cyclists.
A council spokesman said: "We will always prosecute if we have evidence against someone."
To report the flytipper, call the council's streetcare department on 01268 294949.
