The report to the council’s cabinet outlines the authority’s planned new litter and environmental crime plan, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.
According to the document, Barnsley Council spent £265,000 on clearing and disposing of litter and fly-tipping in 2022-23.
As well as the proposed increase for fly-tipping offenders, fines would rise for those involved in graffiti and for households which disposed of waste via unlicensed carriers, the report added.
Under the proposed scheme, two tiers of fines for fly-tipping would be introduced, with the fine for dumping up to six bags of waste remaining at £400, but anyone caught fly-tipping more facing a fine of up to £1,000.
Meanwhile, people involved in graffiti would face a new maximum fine of £200, up from £100.
