Harringay online

Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

This is scandalous. Just between Frobisher and Hampden Roads I had to step over three separate incidences of fly tipping. And pretty much every day I report more via the Our Haringey app.

Harringay Passage is becoming an open sewer and a de facto free rubbish tip. Not to mention the health issues with all this rubbish.

When is something going to be done about this?

As the landlord is London and Quadrant Housing Association, I sincerely hope you aren't right.
Thank you Charlotte. I have in fact emailed all the details of this over to Veoila and enforcement at Haringey. I did direct them to the post on HoL so if you are able to email the photos over to me that would be great. It's karen.alexander.haringeylibdems@gmail.com

I have asked Veoila to clear it and will continue to discuss with them and Haringey on how to address this issue.

Thank you - I have now emailed these to you. 

Nobody was blamed, but the fact is that there are multiple pieces of paper identifying that address.

Thank you Charlotte, this is really useful. I'll pass the details on and hopefully the council/can pick it up from there.

I noticed that Veolia collected all of the rubbish this morning.  Credit where it is due I think that is quite impressive given the weather and it being a Monday.  I really hope Haringey Council will follow up on it.

and so it continues - this morning there was yet another load dumped between Frobisher and Lausanne.  Whoever is doing a house clearance surely cannot have much more to go.  Now if people were allowed to have more rubbish than the one bin every two weeks I would bet they wouldn't have bothered walking up or down the road to dump in the passage.  Has anyone else reported this?

 

I have reported quite a bit of fly tipping over the last year and I do think a lot of it comes from landlords. It is particularly obvious when the same standard issue blue chequered mattresses are dumped at fairly regular intervals in the same places.

I spoke to Haringey about this and they do try to organise meetings with landlords to try to get the message across that large items will collected for free if booked in advance but the message is not being heard. It annoys me so much partly because this is the first london borough I have lived in where this service is offered free of charge and I cannot understand why people don't take advantage of it, instead preferring to dump things in the passage and at the intersections.

The bags are a different story as the one bin every two weeks must be hopeless for HMOs. Im not sure what can be done about this.

Maybe it's residents living nearby who collect this stuff from around the borough (or from outside charity shops, as people do leave stuff outside after hrs) and sorting through it for clothes etc, then dumping nearby what they don't want

maybe although the stuff that gets dumped at the bottom of Hewitt and along the passage on an almost daily basis are often bags made up of mixed general waste eg clothes, old nappies, food and old plastic toys which seem to have come straight from people's homes.

I agree and some of this dumping is probably due to excess waste following Haringeys bin policy and some residents not bothering sorting their rubbish. I wonder whether there are any stats on dumping following the introduction of the fortnightly collections?

A couple of builder's type rubble bags filled with general waste were dumped near my place yesterday. Was our fortnightly collection today so I threw both bags into our bin and they've gone. But that clearly doesn't work when it's 8 - 10 bags dumped at a time.
