It's free to take your own domestic waste to the local council run site but commercial waste (which includes paying someone to take away your old fridge) has to pay for disposal.
Doesn't really matter how much the actual disposal cost is there is always room to undercut the people doing it properly by flytipping.

One big cause seems to be unscrupulous landlords dumping stuff. You see plenty of mattresses being dumped.
It's also pretty difficult to get rid of stuff without a car.

I rarely if ever see any flytipping in Denmark, but see it mentioned frequently on here. Does it happen due to lack of recycling stations or price or something else?
In Copenhagen we paid around £40 for an hours access. A recycling station was never more than 5(?) km away and a few were open 24/7.
