Lots of councils have started charging for garden waste.. dumping and burning are just results of that policy. Driven by funding cuts from central governments.
There has been massive reduction of green waste anyways. Driveways paved over and rear garden astroturf. Even replica planting.
All very sad and causing huge draining issues most people haven't built the required soakaways.
Mostly smells like garden waste. Have smelt some really toxic shit as well, I recognise MDF and plywood smell. also loads of barbeques.
