Episode description
If you've paid to have rubbish taken away from your home - where do you expect it to end up?
A Sky News investigation has tracked down some of those behind the dumping of people's waste illegally and discovered how they are making thousands of pounds from it.
On this episode, Niall hears the back story to how we went from digging through dumped waster to confront a suspected flytipper - and how TikTok played a part.
He's joined by correspondent Rachael Venables and our Open Source Investigations (OSINT) editor, Adam Parker.
