People do get caught just not the guys who actually do it.
What normally happens is someone doing DIY or small building works will have bags of rubbish outside their house. A person in a clapped out white van will offer to dispose of the rubbish for £xxx (amount varies but it is less than the cost of disposing of it legally). Said person proceeds to flytip the rubbish wherever they can. When the council eventually comes to clear it they will sift through it and look for evidence of who did it and if they find a receipt will prosecute the person who has been duped into paying someone to flytip.
Meanwhile the government's idea for tackling this is to make it MORE expensive for businesses and homeowners to dispose of rubbish.

Fucking hell yes, it is already expensive to the point that flytipping actually seemed very compelling to save a couple hundreds quid.

You have to be particularly naive to let some cold caller take your rubbish away for a below market price. You should check their waste removal license. If you don't, you can have no complaints when someone comes knocking.

So disposing of your building waste on a country lane isn't enough, you also have to burn it for extra points?
One of those things that makes me so angry, it's the same here in Germany.
If you can drive your shit to a quiet lane/the woods you can as well drive to a recycling centre. Unless you save money because no one ever gets caught, of course.
