The U.S. exported some 2.5 million tonnes of plastic waste in 2015.
The volume dropped to only 1.07 million tonnes in 2018 primarily due
to China refusing to allow the waste to be imported. (note: Chinese
imports have decreased by some 96% from the 2015 figures)

China didn't exactly ban the import of recyclables. They raised the
contamination percentage requirement from 1.5% to 0.5%, which is
nearly impossible to meet:
