Vacant lots on Nantucket (if you can find one) go for about $500k -- $1M
an acre, and there are no ravines. Place is small enough and everyone
knows everyone else's business and there are enough busybodies, so not
much illegal dumping going on. It used to be fun going to the dump,
never knew what you might find, now it is a Sanitary Landfill and
Resource Recovery Facility and run like a Whole Foods (with prices to
match on commercial waste), with greeters like at Walmart. They do
still have the Takeitorleaveit, but it is in a nice little
architecturally-correct building instead of a corner of the lot where
you just left stuff, and the Jamaicans hover over it like the seagulls
used to.
It does a great job though.

Only problem is then people start dumping their trash in vacant lots,
ravines, etc. late at night.

Or maybe municipalities should simply refuse to take
anything to the dump that can be reused/repurposed or converted into a
useful product such as compost.
