But it's not that simple to do, if you could limit it to an individual consignment it might be feasible but you can't so you're into a huge data audit process. Given the quantities involved I don't doubt the EA are doing but it's a monster job.ll

Is it post processed residual waste or is it combined reject/process loss from a comingand recyclate stream? For each stream it's entirely possible it's brokered and different loads are going to different locations and you don't have a definite timeframe as to when the load went out. And then from the initial point of receipt material might be being sent to multiple offtakes.

And the whole point of organised waste crime is to look legit so you will then be looking for something that doesn't tie up because they won't be coding offtake location to flytipped.

Why is this happening? I'm seeing flytipping a lot around my local area too. 🙁

Well some is down to local recycling centres closing at certain times, making it awkward for people to get to them, some down to such places refusing to accept stuff because it's classed as commercial waste if taken in a van, some is just people being too sodding lazy and dumping it anywhere their car/van can get, and some, like this, I'm sure is opportunistic waste-processing companies dumping it to save money.

Boils my piss too.

I wonder if they could tag batches of waste somehow? Maybe spray it with that [url= http://www.smar****er.com/ ]Smart Water[/url] stuff or something?

Does seem that they need better auditing systems in place so local authorities can ensure that the contractors they give waste to actually dispose of it correctly.

Have to hold my hands up here. What looks like fly tipping was in fact the result of a short trip I took.
I had just had my car valeted, then the kids got in for a short trip to see some old friends. Two short hours later, after numerous bags of sweets and crisps, we stopped at the location in the first picture. Mungus minor jumped out to relieve himself and unfortunately the detritus you see, just happened to fall out of the back seat as he opened his door. Fortunately he closed the door quickly and most of the rubbish stayed in the car. Awfully sorry to have caused such a fuss

Let's hope you find it so amusing when the next lot is dumped where you live.

EA are struggling to enforce as their waste crime department has been hit by funding cuts under the Austerity drives.

Amen to that, if Joe Public realised the amount of organised crime that is involved in waste disposal.

Be interested to hear if your local council have a) been informed b) done anything about it yet.

Sadly the quiet lanes of Hampshire often have builders crap and fridges etc. thrown in the hedgerows, nothing quite as bad as this yet though.

Local council are aware but for the large part the waste isn't on council land. Or its been torched.

Countzero, you're confusing being a tight, disorganised, dishonest **** that can't take responsibility for their own waste, expecting the public purse to wipe their arse for them and then squealing like a butt ****ed pig when somebody expects them to the right thing...And...The councils duties under the EPA

There was a scam going round which targeted farmers with bails of waste. They knocked on your door and ask to storr these bails on your land for a small amount of money. They drop off the bails and never come to collect them.

The bails are low quality waste. The decent stuff is sold to Scandinavia countries which burn them for electricity.

This should be all tracable, the waste reprocessing sites will have paid some one to remove this and will have a record of what they sold and when. It's a case for the EA to investigate in my opinion.

"We have worked closely with Staffordshire Police during the investigation and concluded that the fire was started deliberately."

As already said that's being processed already so its coming from some sort of sorting center, should be easy to trace really, we can trace all our loads so cant see it being too hard to find them ?
