    What about the fly-tippers themselves?

      Leave them in the vehicle.

    For those outside the UK, “fly-tipping” means the much more clearly phrased “illegal dumping”.

    It is not similar to cow-tipping at all.

    There is something deeply wrong with people who litter.

      Premeditated littering as well

    I mean, this is so over the top, but I kinda love it as an idea.

      Also this for anyone who parks across several spaces in a carpark.

    Why crush them and not sell them? The proceeds could pay for the clean up.
