Neighbour annoyed at me over her bins

Absolutely this.

OP should also offer to adopt the daughter and redo her parenting so that she's not so lazy she can't be bothered to put the bins out.

Maybe OP should just assume responsibility for her neighbours life so she can avoid being criticised for treating two adults like adults.

No I’m just a good neighbour. As are my neighbours. We help each other out.

Because as I said in my first post it’s a two second job and a nice thing to do for your neighbour.

This place is mental sometimes. I can’t believe some posters are actually saying OP did anything wrong here. They must all be in Wales (where literally everyone I’ve met is endlessly patient and neighbourly!).

You are an appalling neighbour OP. You should bake a cake and take it around immediately to apologise for your shortcomings and offer to wash her car.
🙈 🤣🤣

@happyhippo1 I wouldn’t have seen red but I would have put her straight as in ‘I saw a bin outside your house which I believed was yours, so thought it was done so you are being a bit unfair to have a go’.
Is there a number on it? If not, no way of knowing whose it is.

I think your mistake OP was saying you’d put the bin out for your neighbour. In future, tell her to get her lazy arsed daughter to do it.

We all bin there.

Are people joking 🤣!! Even to the extent where there saying “why didn’t you put it out the night before?” Umm.. because some people prefer to put them out in the morning before work/school runs.. are people insane🤣!?

OP your well within your rights to say what you’ve said.. if her daughter was at home.. it’s her responsibility to make sure her bin is emptied.. she is being lazy.

obviously if you’ve seen a bin at the end of her drive your naturally going to think either she’s actually out her own bin out.. or I would think to myself “meh, clearly the mum must have put it out for her anyway🤷‍♀️”

I can’t believe you’ve actually got comments on here defending this🤣!! You were right and handled it well, sometimes people need a dose of the truth to realise how ridiculous they are being!!

one positive: you won’t hopefully be asked to be on bin duty for her again.. or this might have actually gave the daughter a reality check to put her own bin out🤣🤣

Starting to think that you may be the cheeky neighbour or lazy daughter...

I'm sorry your neighbours are so lazy and entitled. I suppose these people have to live somewhere.

I don't think you should have agreed to do it in the first place. Her daughter needs to grow up.

Some of these replies are bonkers! If I see a bin at the of Steve at number 25s drive, I would assume it was his, not that Barry from number 23 put his bin in the wrong place. Love the suggestions to knock on the door to check at 7am, I would be so pissed off if you did that to me

Your neighbour is a massive wanker for admitting her own daughter is lazy and chastising the OP for not resolving the problem for her. What an absolute gobshite she is.

Neighbour needs to chuck her daughter out if she's too lazy to put out the bins, because imagine what else she's too lazy to do around the house?

My 15yr old DS with dyspraxia and autism has to bring the bins in after they've been emptied once a fortnight and our drive is uphill and 250 metres long. There's a field between the house and the main road. Laziness is not an option!!

Do you have some sort of insider knowledge on why the neighbour's adult daughter is incapable of putting her own bin out?

What ridiculous comments you have had! You went over and above when you were willing to check, you checked and the bin was there, the neighbour should be mad at her daughter, or maybe even the bright hour who purposely fooled you with their badly positioned bin…jokes lol your neighbour is ridiculous

Yep!

This thread is wild. Lolling at the posters falling all over themselves to defend the daughter and tell the OP she didn’t do enough.

I know it’s what happens here, posters always take against an OP, but surely even the die-hards can see this one is a bit of a stretch?! 😂

This.
Before I would bother a neighbour when my child was in the house and well able to do a simple task.
And then to be annoyed with you.
A CF is what she is.

Bin her off.

Well you know what assuming does.

My point is that she should just have agreed to put the bin out, rather than just saying she’d check that the daughter had put the bin out. Which she seemed to say as she thought the daughter should be doing it. Which she probably should, but the neighbour was asking for a very small favour as she knew the daughter probably wouldn’t/would forget and understandably doesn’t want maggoty bins. My point was that it was a small ask so she probably just should have agreed put it out in which case the random bin is not really relevant as if she was going she’d have know it wasn’t the right bin.

Why would you wait till 7am instead of just putting it out the night before ?

The sense of entitlement on MN never fails to amaze me.
Deal with your own skanky bins neighbour's dd.
