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 .

Could you put the errant bins (after emptying - you don't want other people's decaying sh*te in your garden) onto a piece of FENCED OFF land that you won. Make the shameless bastards come begging for their bins, and then charge them for warehousing.

Or, if you know who they are, send each one of them an invoice "For housing bin for collection - £15" or whatever.

The bloody cheek of it! I would be livid! I would truly and honestly set the buggers alight!

(Er - the bins, alight, that is. In no way would I approve immolating the neighbours.

Well . . . not very much. Just a bit.)

*own, not won.

Damn you, autocorrect - I WILL BE AVENGED!!!11

A colleague has just said;

Drop a dead fish in each one and sit home with a smug face knowing they either won't notice till it's smells, or they have to "fish it out" fresh or rotten

Do you recognise the neighbours who do this? Perhaps you could drop a note through their door, so they know that YOU know it's them. Charge them rent.

Oooh this is the sort of thing that DH would love, he lives for a good bin dispute sad bastard

So my initial suggestions would be :-
(a) Burn them. At midnight. S=Dance around in your nighty chanting/in the buff singing loudly depending on your bravery levels. But that seems unfair seeing as the bins belong to innocent parties who are not in control of their fate so...
(b) wheel them to the interfering neighbours property. Preferably in front of their door but not enought to cause a fire hazard. Fill with rocks/going off asphalt/quick drying cement. Encourage owners to replace their bins by taking the ones previously owned by interfering neighbours...

Alpaca's quick drying cement idea sounds good (if expensive). Ofcourse - you could always put the cement ON TOP of all the rubbish, thus preventing emptying and making sure the basted neu=ighbours have to buy new bins!

Alpaca - I think that your husband and I may be twins separated at birth - there's nothing like a Bin War IMHO!

I don't think that the neighbors who own the bins are innocent . They are very obviously in cahoots with the ones that have actually moved the bins off the pavement.

Oh and yes I recognize the neighbours that are doing it.

Erect a new fence while they are all in there-Ok so that's probably not going to happen but it would be funny! This sort of thing rips my knitting too...!

I'd fill them up!

I'm a nob tho and love a good clear out but hate going tip!

if I was feeling nice I'd put up a sign saying 'this is Private Land, not a bin storage area'

my friend has a similar issue but with full bins (like people put general waste in the recycling bin) being dumped on her land, and the council take the away... then issue a new free recycling bin to the culprits who just do it again

Those bins would get kicked out into the fucking road here. They'd lie on their sides, their little wheels spinning round, every single time.

Those cunts killed your cat.

why don't you just tell them?
"look, I know you're trying to be helpful, but I don't want other peopkle's bins on my rear driveway, so pllease can you stop putting them there? Thanks!" should be enough for most

My nan says I should go passive aggressive .
That I should knock the neighbours door and say I found her bins and she must have been looking all over for them . Telling her where I found them and how I don't understand how they got there.

She then says I should have a really loud conversation in the back garden with OH about the collection of bins in the back garden and all their concerned owners looking for them.

My nan loves a bit of passive aggression she does .

I might go for the shotgun and a lawn chair on top of the garage solution.

"BINGATE" - what about smearing dog crap (or your own, depending on how incensed you are) around the lids and handles of the bins so that whoever move/opens them gets a Fistful of (well, not Dollars . . . ).

OMG this is a hoot. I think you need to pop them in your garage. Twats. I am envious though of some people's front!!!

Put nappies in the bins.

'

A shotgun and a lawn chair is obviously the other alternative, but would also require a flask of coffee and a few sammiches. Are you prepared to go to this expense?

I might just start putting them back on the road . Or stand in the entry after the bin men have gone watching everyone walk the bin walk of shame so they have to leave them somewhere unsightly .
You know instead of my fucking property!

I use washable nappies so can't really put them in the bin. Could maybe use disposable for the purpose of bin revenge though 😷

Could it fit a car or something large on there for now? To make a point.

Or turn it into a fake beach, hold a BBQ or something and sit out there.

Like this:

Baby . . . bump Just scrape the contents into the bins - accidentally getting the handles etc, too.

(I see a pattern emerging here . . .)

Borrow an aggressive looking dog and chain it up on your land so the neighbours have to pass it to get to their bins. Make sure dog is all bark and no bite.
The neighbours will have to ask for their bins back.

Hire a skip and park it so they can't drag their bins out round it.

Could get some cheap second hand chicken netting to erect an unsightly temporary fence! Put a sign up -- beware of the dog, trespassers will be prosecuted or persecuted even!

People don't seem to be understanding that putting smelly stuff in the bins left there won't be hurting those that are leaving them, they've already taken their bins home and are leaving other neighbour's bins there so they don't have to look at them on the street...
