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

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 .

Put them in the garage or back on the street now

avocadosweet · 02/09/2016 15:42

Great diagram! Enjoyed that:) I think I'd ring the council and ask them to collect the abandoned bins from your property. Or stick Hazardous Waste stickers on!

Make a big placard saying 'THIS LAND IS NOT FOR BIN STORAGE' and then stick it on a tall post and put it in the ground.

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 02/09/2016 15:50

I'd lock them in your garage, deny all knowledge and make them buy new ones.

Keep doing it until either 1) your garage is full of bins or 2) you fix the fence. Then release them all under the cover of darkness and watch with glee as your neighbours wake to discover they can't move for the sheer number of bins.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 02/09/2016 15:53

What raptor said - they obviously want you to have the bins so take them and stash them - they wouldn't have actively moved them back on to your land if this was not the case.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 02/09/2016 15:55

Just buy the netting/ fence thing, OP!

MillionToOneChances · 02/09/2016 16:06

Can't believe they moved them back onto your land! If you know who did it, go and speak to them? Ask if they could remove a section of their fence for bin storage since your garden is not an option.

YourNewspaperIsShit · 02/09/2016 16:29

I'm literally gobsmacked that someone moved them back on purpose ShockShock I'd be fuming at that point and leave them in the middle of the road, do they have the house numbers on?

Babyiwantabump · 02/09/2016 16:31

2 bins back in my garden again! This is fucking ridiculous now !

The owner of the 3rd bin must have been the one to put them back.

Time to dig out the laminator !

I am going to make a sign!!

Having referred back to your awesome diagram, you should either:

  1. Put the bins in your garage
  1. Bring them into your garden as far as from the gate and as close to your door as possible.

Make the owners come and get them.

Babyiwantabump · 02/09/2016 16:36

Yes they have the house numbers on but I'm not 100% sure who the instigator is as the people whose bins they are don't put them there they collect them later in the day.

But then they must be in on it as it is the same bins as last week ( there actually wasn't as many as last week - maybe because the bin men came early this week?)

They are taking the piss. Put them in your garage. They can come knock on your door to get them. What utter bastards.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 02/09/2016 16:49

I think you need to put the fence/ sign up. It will and already has boil your piss.

sharkinthedark · 02/09/2016 16:51

Burn them!

NoahVale · 02/09/2016 16:57

what ridiculous petty neighbours you have op

NoahVale · 02/09/2016 16:59

put fish heads in them,
pour wee in them

NoahVale · 02/09/2016 16:59

go to the fish shop, order some maggots, and put them in them

Ninjapie · 02/09/2016 16:59

I agree with arfarfandarf

RatherBeIndoors · 02/09/2016 17:01

Straw-filled effigy in each bin, nicely aflame?

diddl · 02/09/2016 17:01

Op shouldn't have to put a sign/fence up, should she?

Where did the twatty busybody bin collectors put the bins when your fence was up, Op?

You have to be some kind of stupid to think that fence down=bin storage!

thinkingthingsover · 02/09/2016 17:16

At this point I'd go and knock on the doors of the two householders whose numbers are on the bins (keep an eye out for when they come home). Give them the benefit of the doubt since they're not the ones actually placing the bin there, but ask them firmly to come and move their bins as they keep inexplicably appearing in your garden. Say you can't think why. You've moved them once. Do they know why this is happening? I think it would be satisfying to put these people on the spot and see them either apologise or squirm, rather than keep moving bins and looking out to see what's happening. You might get a bit more closure that way than waiting to see what they all do next. (Also it might have the benefit of setting the neighbours at loggerheads as they blame each other).

Binglesplodge · 02/09/2016 17:26

This is gripping. I can't believe my Friday night entertainment this week is somebody else's bin dispute... Definitely ask the owners of the bins if they have any idea how they keep getting onto your land...

diddl · 02/09/2016 17:33

I know, Bingle!

I'm already anticipating next week's installment of "Bin Wars".

"Previously, on Bin Wars..."

(Anyone remember Soap?Blush)

Nanasueathome · 02/09/2016 17:35

Put them back in the street, at the side of the road where the bin men would have left them
