The council will also share examples of people caught fly-tipping on social media until October the 27th.

It’s also planning to recruit more enforcement officers and introduce new ways to prevent illegal dumping.

The council says it will continue investigating reports and taking repeat offenders to court.

The pavement stencil markings will not be permanent and will not damage the pavement. They will be applied following the removal of a fly-tip and provide a reminder, at the point at which someone might fly-tip, that they will be held to account if they do so.

Councillor Ethan Brooks, Cabinet Member for Environment, said:

“Most residents take pride in keeping their neighbourhoods clean, and it is unfair that a small minority continue to blight our streets through fly-tipping. We are determined to use every tool available to prevent it, from education and enforcement to new deterrents.

“This is designed to be a long-term plan to embed good practice, have the right teams for the job and deter people once and for all from fly-tipping in Wandsworth. By working together, we can keep Wandsworth’s streets cleaner, safer and more attractive for everyone.”
