Carl Smith, of Chesney Crescent, New Addington, was caught littering in Market Square, Bromley, in July.
He was issued a £100 fixed penalty notice, but this was not paid.
He was then prosecuted and pleaded guilty to littering at Bromley Magistrates’ Court on December 3.
He was ordered to pay a fine of £293, a surcharge of £117, and £423 in costs, totalling £833.
A council spokesperson said: “On behalf of residents, the council has street cleaning teams working seven days a week across the borough, keeping our streets neat.
“Littering undoes this work and is illegal, with our enforcement team issuing a fixed penalty notice to anyone seen littering.
“If payment is not received then prosecution will follow, with fines and costs being considerably higher than the fixed penalty notice.”
This is the twelfth prosecution for littering since the beginning of September.
The council hopes these prosecutions will serve as a warning to others not to discard unwanted items in the street, but to place them in a litter bin or take rubbish home.
