Litter and fly-tipping at Mizen's Corner Green Space
Reported via desktop in the Litter or Weeds on a Street category anonymously at 09:04, Thursday 25 June 2026
Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1287344-S7H6D0.
I previously reported litter at Mizen's Corner Green Space. To confirm (as confirmed to me in correspondence with the Leader of Merton Concil) this is within LBM's responsibility to clean up and is the responsibility of the streets/highways division. In addition to litter and bin bags (which I think consitute fly tipping) - which has not been cleaned up - there are now additional items dumped here which need cleaning up. These again feel more like fly tipping than litter but there is so much rubbish that I am not in a position to distinguish. Can this please urgently be cleaned as it is an eyesore and a disgrace to the community. Shame on whoever keeps doing this!

Thank you for reporting litter or weeds on a street.
If litter is widespread, we aim to clear it within 24 hours of your report. It may take longer if we need specialist equipment.
Reports of weeds or leaves will help us to plan our seasonal work. Weeds are normally cleared in spring, summer and early autumn. Leaves are only cleared once they have broken down.Did you know…?
Our street cleaning teams remove over 130 tonnes of litter and dumped waste each month

Most rubbish now cleared but some large items (plastic tank and large cushions) have been left by the cleanup crew (this was about two weeks ago). Can whoever is responsible for these larger items please collect/dispose? Can there be better communication between council/contractor teams on such matters? Seems a bit silly to have to chase.
