To despise my neighbours.

This is a complicated one to explain but I will try.

I live in a flat and there are 2 other flats below me. Opposite are two town houses. There is a car park in between all properties. Imagine a rectangle on one long side are two flats (mine is just outside the rectangle) and on the other long side are the back door for the two town houses. In the middle is the car park. The flats below me do not have the right to park in the car park, there are two spaces for the cars belonging to the town houses. The town houses front doors are on the main road (terraced street). I also have a car parking space but this is set back from the rectangle and is on my property deeds.

The town house neighbours are the most filthiest people I’ve come across. They put bin bags out all week, which get ripped opened by wildlife. This leaves dirty nappy’s on the driveway to our car park. They dump and dump electrical goods on the entry way to our car park. Now this is what I want to know they have a front door. Should their bin bags go outside their house as they have a front door. Or is it ok for them to dump them to the entry way to our shared car park?

They also have left large pallets, a cooker and a large dining table with four chairs in the car park. While I appreciate they can park there isn’t ok to turn the car park into their own dumping ground? I will try and attach photos.

Thanks for reading.

I have and they seem to be doing nothing about it. The filth is driving me insane. I hate walking past it and I hate that my husband is clearing away someone else rubbish!

Why is your husband clearing it? You need to call the council every day to come take it away. If you keep clearing it there’s nothing to investigate.

Knock on their door, smile sweetly and hand them their rubbish "I think these are yours?"

What have the council said when you reported them?

They will investigate. I have reported multiple times and nothing is stopping these people!

They're fly tipping. Report them to the council.
