fly-tippers

Roadside trash abandoners

Fly-tippers are people who illegally dump waste in unauthorized places—roadsides, fields, vacant lots—to avoid proper disposal fees or effort.

The term is primarily British: Fly-tippers left mattresses and construction debris in the car park.

The practice is called fly-tipping, suggesting the quick, furtive nature of the act.
