Haringey Council issued 2,554 fines for fly-tipping and littering totalling £1,393,350 between April 2024 and March 2025.
A recent survey by the council found overwhelming support for stricter measures to tackle fly-tipping and littering.
It revealed that 96% of residents were in favour of imposing fines on fly-tippers, while 94% supported penalties for littering and dog fouling.
Local businesses and community organisations also voiced their concerns, with 83% backing fines to combat fly-tipping.
Following this, the council said it deployed an additional 15 environmental enforcement officers as part of its existing team to combat fly-tipping and littering.
Commenting on the announcement, councillor Seema Chandwani, Cabinet Member for Tackling Inequality and Resident Services, said: “The message from these figures is clear. Our residents and businesses demanded stronger measures, and we have delivered.
“Waste dumping and littering remain significant concerns in our borough, as voiced by our community, and we are committed to doing everything we can to put an end to this. Those who refuse to contribute and instead damage our beautiful spaces will be held accountable.”
