Just 10 households in the county are inspected every month.
Just 10 households in Westmeath are asked for proof of waste disposal every month.
It's prompted renewed calls from Fine Gael councillor John Dolan for a dedicated unit of full-time council staff to go door-to-door to carry out inspections.
Householders are required by law to dispose of their waste responsibly, or face a fine of up to €3,000 if dumped waste is traced back to you.
Councillor Dolan thinks a full crackdown on unlicenced waste collectors is required to help tackle the ongoing flytipping problem in the county:
