Local authorities are required to investigate complaints that could be a statutory nuisance and can issue noise abatement notices.
The out-of-hours noise nuisance service in Leeds received 7,480 calls during 2022-23, the council said.
A Leeds City Council spokesperson said a new computerised complaints system would make it easier for householders to report problems.
“Noise nuisance is to be the first complaint type to use this new system,” they added.
“We will also be advising customers that we can now use their mobile phone recordings or any capture on CCTV to assist in the evidence gathering.”
The proposal to scrap the out-of-hours service will not affect the service funded by the city’s two main universities which investigates noise nuisances caused by students.
