Old London Road, Tolworth Close, Ewell Road, Burlington Road, and Rayleigh Court are known crime hotspots.
The council’s action has seen almost 900 letters delivered to people living in those roads explaining how to deal with waste.
Authority bosses say as a result, of the five locations recorded no fly-tipping incidents in July, compared with six incidents in June.
Deputy Leader and Portfolio Holder for Sustainable Transport, Waste and Recycling, Councillor Nicola Nardelli, said:
Keeping our streets clean, safe and welcoming is a shared responsibility. The Let’s SCRAP campaign is an important part of our ongoing work to prevent fly-tipping, educate residents and protect the places we all value. Fly-tipping is a blight on our local environment that affects us all, which is why I warmly welcome the launch of the Let’s SCRAP fly-tipping campaign in our borough.
Kingston Council and our partners are committed to preventing illegal dumping and dealing with offenders. By taking care of our borough together, supporting these initiatives, educating our community, and ensuring waste is disposed of lawfully, we can protect our beautiful green spaces and maintain neighbourhoods that we can all be proud to live in.
