Sod a parking dispute - I bring you a fucking wheelie bin dispute.....

[Babyiwantabump]

Absolutely fucking livid . Probably disproportionately so as I am hormonal but I don't care .

Background description :
House then back garden then garage then fenced area then entryway . All my boundary up to where my back fence meets the entryway. I am end terraced so entry runs down left hand side of garden and house too.

Have lived here many years . Not close with any neighbors . One on the left killed my cat other across the entry is pleasant . Say good morning and exchange pleasantries but no more than that .

Have been finding bins on my bit of land behind my house for a while - thought it may have been a mistake that neighbors might have thought it was my bin and put it there all nice as you do.

Today I have just watched several of my neighbors take the bins of people who are out at work or not in off the street and put them on my land! Like the area behind my garage is a fucking neighborhood bin store ! It's not !

It's my fucking land and AIBU to tell them to get the fuck to fucking fuck and fuck off some more!!!

And breathe .

Baby - it was from a parking thread. Like "have you cancelled the cheque yet OP?"

Ah ok - I must have missed that one!

Rage. Rage about the bins, rage about the cat particularly. He looks so beautiful :( Please pour weed killer over his fence late at night. Please. Or BUY MOLES! And release them into his garden. Or rats. Or moles and rats. Or feed foxes so they crap all over his garden, it's much much worse than cats.

Go to screw fix and buy mitre glue - it's a two part glue, a liquid and then a spray catalyst. Much better than super glue.

I can't get over the cat-killing Did you report him to the police?! Or....rspca? What a bastard.

I think hide them round the neighbourhood. Cliquey bastards.

No couldn't really report him as had no solid proof it was him .

Ha ha ha Malcolm! Brilliant!

Put maggots in their bins , especially the cat killer's bin

If you are going to glue something shut do it with the right glue for the job. Super glue sticks smooth close fitting surfaces together very well. Probably works well on new undamaged bins, but not damaged gappy ones. Araldite is the brand name for Epoxy resin is a gap filler will stick anything together, but takes 8 hours to dry (the quick dry, 2/4 hours, isn't quite as strong). A hot glue gun could work really well, but would be time consuming and imagine would be the first to fail, would leave a terrible mess unlike the others. Leaving something heavy on the top whilst gluing/leaving it to dry would make any glue work better.

This happened to me shortly after I moved in. I put passive aggressive notes in plastic sandwich bags so the pen didn't run on the bins and attached a diagram of my deeds and highlighted the bit of land that was mine and told them that if they wanted to store their bins right outside my fucking door on my land that I would eventually start charging ground rent. They moved their bins. But then some fucker parked their SORN Car there instead. Sigh.

you need to be a stealth ninja love the ops accidentally sprayed your face with acid fence paint oo so want to be in your gang street when shit goes down

I do think putting them in your garage is best as they will have to come and ask you for them back and when you innocently say 'Oh, are they not my bins? But they were on my property...if you want to store them there in future it's going to cost you £5 per day. Please sign this form so that you are aware of this and I'll go get you your bin back'...

As Doreen says.
Wait until they have put bins on your land
Quickly whizz them into your garage when coast is clear
Put fish heads in bins (get them the day before and freeze so you don't get the smell)
Paint offensive but true remarks on inside of bin lid.
Glue bin lid down
Wait for neighbours to come looking for bins
.......
I never look in my bin after its been emptied as you can tell when wheeling it back, so when they do have a bag of rubbish in hand that's when they have the dilemma of opening the lid, then imagine the nice smelly surprise theyou will have when they get it open.
insert evil laugh

I suggest getting/regularly borrowing a barking dog which is always barking when horrid neighbour is tending his flowers. Poor cat.

As for the bins this type of thing makes my blood boil, I would be in the space when they next try to drop off the bins pottering about. Then block the space off in some way so they know its a direct reaction to you seeing them tiring to park the bins. Personally I would block it with something unsightly as they're so concerned with the appearance of the street.

If u have a builder friend or u know someone doing house improvements ask for a couple of sacks of rubbish to block the area that way it would be free.

Keep us posted though OP. We feel your pain.

I second the hiding the bins in the garage.

Seriously, just fix the fence. They sell little fences in my nearest pound shop. You can easily get something cheap. Just put it up and ignore your neighbours.

You need paint, preferably white gloss.
I mean, it must be difficult for your poor neighbours to know which bin is theirs come collection time?
So label them for future convenience.
"Cat murderer, no 24"
"Lazy bitch, no 10"
"Hyacinth Bouquet, no 5"
"The Perverts, no 7"
and so on...

Thinking about this more, I think I'd have shouted after the bin tippers
"Oi! You've left something on my land, remove it now. (In reality I'd more likely drag the bins back out into the street but leave them outside random houses)
What the neighbours are doing is letting you know that they are the bin/missing fence police and can ride roughshod over you. You need to take back the control over your piece of land. It is up to you whether you replace the fence or not, the. act of using your land is a passive aggressive method of making you replace the fence so that they don't have to look at your bins. Time to take action op and fight back.

I love the thought of some of the vigilante ideas as you're neighbours do sounds like shit bags. It really is unfair (to say the least!) how they are treating you. Putting my sensible hat on, best course of action would probably be confronting the nob who is wheeling the bins there whilst in action and asking them calmly what they are doing, why they think it's ok to put the bins there (especially when you've been given grief for putting yours there!), and asking then to take them away and not do it again. If they do it again, I'd probably go with locking them in your garage if you have one. OR moving them all to the nob's driveway. I'd also start putting my own bubs back there. Why bow down to them when they don't show you any respect?! As for the murderer, I really would report to the police. Use the non emergency number, ask for a report from the vet showing it was weed killer that did it and explain what murderer said to you after. It might not be high priority, but unfortunately I'm sure it won't be the first time they've heard of this sort of thing. They'll either tell you there's nothing they can do, or they'll go and have a word and explain that killing cats is not cool. They probably won't be able to do more than that without solid proof though but if it feels like it's worth it to you, I'd do it.

• bins not bubs, obvs!

Really hoping you're not on fortnightly bin collections - I can't wait that long for an update!

But nightwanderer. What a boring thread that would be :

Op: bins on my land behind broken fence
Other : fix the fence
Op: ok

Very short , very boring . Not much fun.

I'm not going to do any of the vigilante suggestions ( apart from being in the space at the right time) but it's fun to think of things to do and have a bit of a rant occasionally .

Isn't that what forums like this are for?

And no - weekly collections!

So when's the next collection?

Obviously you wait until all the bins are on your land before building the fence, though with no gate. Make sure it has concrete bollards.
