Looking at the state of the landfill -- don't know when the photos were taken though -- I'd probably sieve the material. But surely that would take forever?
I wouldn't be to surprised if other missing people have ended up at landfills in some way, and the landfills weren't locked down, and the police force didn't have the leads or the money to do a random search on the scale of this one. Corrie was actually caught on CCTV going into the bay with the bins, but not all bins are covered by CCTV and not all missing person cases have CCTV of them right before they disappeared.
There was a story of a person ending up in a cardboard bale. I find it easier to believe someone could go through an incinerator than end up in a card/paper bale. It depends what condition bones would be in post-incineration but if they cracked/broke into pieces, then they'd be hard to recognise as human. The skull is the most easily identified, but if it's cracked into 20 disparate pieces then it's not recognizable as human.
I figure the tabloids haven't bothered to ask by exactly which route/process it's being theorised that Corrie ended up in the landfill and just made the map showing the bin lorry going straight to Milton as it would satisfy most readers (although it would also leave most readers who were satisfied by it wondering why 2+2 weren't added up a lot earlier and the landfill searched earlier).
