Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Rubbish Nightmare!
To add to that, we were noticing that our bins (especially recycling) are not being picked up regularly at all. In fact, my husband happened to hear the bin man and watched him- he was looking at each houses bins and skipping some intentionally. Ours was completely full and he looked at it and walked on by! My husband ran after him down the street, with the bin and made him empty it. ????? I'm starting to feel like we live in the middle of a dump.
Help on those issues please! Thanks☺

Can you state the exact location of the bin please so I can send the link to the Neighbourhood Enforcement Officer for the area. he is very proactive and will also liaise, I am sure, with Veolia. I will also send the link to Veolia since the issue about bins not being emptied regularly etc needs taking up.
Please reply ASAP.
Thanks

Thanks Zena, very helpful.
I have noticed a general increase in rubbish dumped in the streets or in front gardens in many parts of West Green ward recently. Not your patch I know but I wonder if there have been some subtle economies in the street cleaning/anti-fly tipping/bulk rubbish collection service in general. Beds and mattresses seem particularly common. Maybe the Council could crack down on landlords and lettings agencies who throw them out into streets and (often shared) front gardens and/or just leave it to the tenants to see about the issue.

Great to see your active again on municipal matters. A walk around would be great to catch up with outstanding issues for Beresford and Pemberton roads, (with wheelie bins on the foot path,) the solution to storage will come from nearby neighbours, like Bourgoyne, as residents have taken the initiative with small interventions, learning from each other.
A deep cleanse has been agreed by Veolia for Green Lanes, well overdue, needs pressing.

Is there anything which can be done about the rubbish which is dumped daily at the bottom of Cavendish Rd ? I have spoken with Veolia a number of times and they just say that it is from the people in the flats about the shops and there is nothing that can be done.
The sheer amount and the daily occurrence means that the current system is not working, but Veolia simply refuse to do anything about it !

I thought that was the new policy for the flats above the shops - that they had to put their rubbish out in pink (?) bags with teh restaurant rubbish...

The problem is they put their rubbish at the bottom of Cavendish whenever they feel like it, rather than on Green lanes at the specific times they are supposed to.
There are signs on the lampost saying that it is illegal to dump rubbish there, but people do it every single day and every day it ends up being spread all across the road.

It's the same everywhere. Walk past the Salisbury/row of shops opposite on St Ann's Road. A few weeks ago there was a pig's trotter sitting next to the bin. In amongst the bags.

The restaurant on the corner of Cavendish & Green Lanes have a large commercial waste bin and I asked Veolia why the flats above the shops couldn't share one of those. However, I was told it was not their policy to provide one. It would appear they prefer rubbish to be strewn along the along the road......

There used to a terrible problem with 15+ bins on one of the big houses next to the Hawes and Curtis on Green Lanes that's split into bedsits Rubbish everywhere. Council provided big bins to replace the small ones.
At times it feels as if common sense has been thrown out of the window and a rigid system of following the contract by the letter is being adhered to. A depressingly familiar mode of work to rules (sic) that I'm familiar with from work.
