I met my new neighbor properly for the first time today, despite moving in June.
She needs to drag her bin along the edge of my back garden and outside to be emptied. In the months I've lived here she has never emptied her bin.
I don't know if there was a previous arrangement whereby the person who lived here before was happy about her bin being left in their garden and was happy to empty it but I certainly do not want this.
She leaves her bin in my garden and locks her gate so I cannot return it.
I am sick of her never emptying her bin so that it stinks in my garden. It is full of dirty nappies and makes me nearly throw up if I get too close. But if I don't empty it then she fills up my bin as well.
Today I asked her very politely if she could put her bin back in her garden after it was emptied as I was unhappy with it being left in mine. She ignored me when I first spoke so I raised my voice. She told me she was too busy so I told her quite forcefully to put her bin back in her garden and that she had no right to leave it in mine. She stormed off.
I think I caught her in the middle of trying to fill my bin up again. I have moved my bin into a shed so she cannot fill mine up. She later moved the bin outside our gardens - where it should be left for emptying.
If she leaves it in my garden this week, am I being unreasonable to throw it over her wall?

Neighbor won't keep her bin in her own garden and never empties it
