TIL: Fly-tipping is the illegal disposal of waste on land, such as household, industrial, or commercial waste. It can include liquid or solid waste, such as garden refuse, fridges, or mattresses. Fly-tipping is different from littering.

Is fly tipping just dumping waste illegally? Great that they’re able to enforce it. We should consider going after manufacturers for creating so much waste in the first place.

I live in a flat and our bin area is often full of dumped stuff from the houses across the road. The amount of unnecessary shite they buy from Amazon is staggering.
