rubbish tip

Municipal garbage destination

A rubbish tip is a British term for a place where waste is deposited—what Americans call a dump or landfill.

People take household rubbish to the tip, and councils operate tips for public use.

Figuratively, any extremely messy place might be called a rubbish tip: This room is an absolute rubbish tip.
