Nothing comes close to the fly-tipping by tenants of the bedsits next to the 'coffee shop' on Falkland Road. They have no refuse collection and dump all their rubbish right on their doorstep.
They are digging a tunnel to Crouch End to escape.
I saw three Veolia guys Wombelling down Pemberton today with litter grabber sticks. They were doing a glorified litter pick. I asked one of them if they had stopped coming down the street to sweep (especially given the amount of leaf litter accumulating at this time of year, filling drains which will then not work and mulching into corners and cracks to give rise to the 'greening' of Harringay we all increasingly 'enjoy'). He basically shrugged his shoulders and said 'bosses instructions'!
I do not remember the last time I saw a street being swept properly, and I am increasingly sick of wading through leaf litter (I often go and sweep it from around the raised beds on Pemberton) and I am increasingly noticing drains that will flood come a heavy winter rain! It seems to me to be a systematic policy of either reducing the service Veolia are contracted to provide so as to reduce the waste contract cost to Haringey, or Veolia taking the p**s because they know there is no one there either able or bothered to monitor their performance.
I will let our Councillors know, but I am not sure what they can/will do about it.
You need to report it to the council, here:

Also everyone should use the harringay app to report dumped rubbish in situe, as its very good.
