What message should I put on my bin to deter CF neighbours who like to fill it up?

As the title says really - there's no reasonable chat to be had, and I'm getting quite fed up with it.

Bin lock.
And penguin bollards.

Could you put a bin lock on it ?

lannistunut · 13/08/2021 18:26

I also think a bin lock is the easiest way to go.

JumpLeadsForTwo · 13/08/2021 18:26

Penguin bollards won't work as i live in a flat. Any recommendation on bin locks?

You need a gravity lock.

Smear Nutella on the handles so the next time they touch it they think it’s shit

A note through his door asking him not to do it?

Theunamedcat · 13/08/2021 18:31

Just gravity bin lock and swerve the whole "conversation" if he tries asking why just say someone was putting rubbish in and so you locked it

Hide inside until they put things in it and then jump out.

Yes, you may be there some time.

Bin lock.

Not 100% effective, but can deter opportunist dumpers.

Not on speaking terms due to other CF behaviour and they aren't ones for taking any notice of notes unfortunately

Just had a quick google and gravity lock sounds good. I'll look into it properly

Put a picture of Oscar the Grouch on the inside of the lid.

Disrespected · 13/08/2021 18:48

A scary pic on the inside when they lift the lid with big black writing saying fuck off use your own bin!

EmmalineC · 13/08/2021 18:49

Dress up as Pennywise and hide in the bin

Alpenguin · 13/08/2021 18:51

Write messages on the lid, change them every week but personalise it by naming them

tiredanddangerous · 13/08/2021 18:51

Fuck off cunt ought to do it.
