Seven people have been fined for fly-tipping and littering in Bury.
The offences, committed on Ferngrove, Hawks Close, Denton Street, Ormrod Street, Spring Street, and Broad Oak Lane, led to fines in August.
The fixed penalty notices comprised £75 for littering and £400 for fly-tipping.
Since 2021, the council has issued 106 fines for fly-tipping and 78 for littering.
There have also been three household duty of care warnings and 22 court prosecutions.
All the August fines were paid within a week.
Cllr Alan Quinn, cabinet member for the environment, climate change and operations, said: "Everyone hates litter and fly-tipping.
"It spoils our environment and costs local taxpayers money to clear it up.
"We will continue to take action against those who dump their rubbish on our streets and green spaces.
"If anyone has information about offences or the perpetrators, please contact the council."
