WTF! How can there be no control on waste imports!
It should be fucking easy, you establish police checkpoints across the country that controls and registers, and digitalize it, so corruption is countered.
Then you have final check at the dumpster. Drivers and companies should deposit 50% of the value of the trash as guarentee. They'll get their money back if they deliver instead of dumping it on a roadside.
Register ID, and face+ thumb print of drivers, or transporters.

Why is UK recycling being dumped by Turkish roadsides?
The UK sends more plastic waste to Turkey than to any other country but not all of it reaches recycling plants.
