There should be a deposit attached to ticket price and when you scan out if you aren't carrying tent with you you don't get deposit back.

Cleaning the site is costed in to the the ticket price. Shame the people who didn't trash the joint also pay it.

If you could claim a deposit for taking your tent, people would just toss it once they were out the gate.

At Boomtown you pay an eco bond of £10 and if you give them a bag full of trash or recycling at the end of the festival you get it back.

This is the way. We should do the same for homeless people
