Worst dumpers I've seen were construction crews off loading building debris because they were to lazy to drive it to town...
Specifics? I think this is a rural legend. Most of the time if that is happening - owners are doing it. Construction crews can rent the dumpsters for such little money compared to loading and driving the trash anywhere.

Well here's a tip, ask them for a return ups sticker with your order in case you need to send it back. And take all the stupid catalogs they send all the way to Hawaii en mass, L.L. Bean etc.? Fill a box with them and all the styrofoam packaging materials they send, return them to sender rather than put them in our land fills. Send them some mac nut cookies and a thank you for charging you 9.95 shipping for an 5.89 item. They have bigger landfills on the mainland and I think the way stuff is over packaged is a major waste. Return to sender.
Now there I heartily agree with you. I have tried and tried to get off even junk mailing lists. It is almost impossible to make it to zero.
