AIBU neighbours filling my bin

[clartins]

I know there’s bigger things going on in the world but I’ve just found out that before our wheelie bin was emptied today our next door neighbour (she’s friendly, he’s not) had filled our bin with their rubbish from the decorating they’ve been doing. AIBU to think that you ask first if it’s ok? Should I let it go or speak to her about it?

With social distancing maybe they didn’t want to knock. How did you just find out?
It wouldn’t bother me if I had space tbh.

Rude of them not to ask!

I'd probably let it slide this once and if it happens again maybe mention it?

If it was the day of collection, I wouldn't think too much about it. If they did it the day after collection, then it would have been left on their front garden.

But as you say, there are bigger things going on in the world, 😁

Yabu if it was right before they were emptied.

I’d not be happy and if they did it again I’d put it on their doorstep

My general waste bin is never full because I recycle everything I can

My worry is, because of cat litter, the council could say my bin is too heavy and not empty it. I don't want random rubbish in my bin

I'd forget it this time as if space, just about to be emptied, tips shut etc prob ok BUT agree they should have asked.

This

If I had already put the bin out for collection this would not bother me.

It's really rude of them not to ask first.

I'd be annoyed with decorating rubbish especially if it is not properly bagged or has materials that should not properly be disposed of in the rubbish. I do think it's poor form not to ask first.

If they can't ask (becAuse of social distancing) then they shouldn't do it! Not just assume it's ok. Very rude

Only put your bin out PM bin day and bring it back in to your garden when empty. Put it in a secure area. Like the back garden

Get a bin lock!

They should ask out of politeness. Maybe a little note through their door to say you know they did this and to ask in future (if you don't mind them using any space you may have left)

It would depend on the nature of my relationship with the neighbour.

If they put it in your bin on the day it was collected and your bin was outside awaiting collection, yabu. Refuse / recycling centres are closed. They was using the only facilities available to them. As long as all the rubbish is collected, I really don’t see what difference this makes.

My Neighbour does this too. If my bin is too full for her rubbish, she has left it beside the bin

I now have to lock it in my garden until collection day.

wheely bins?
you can get lock for those that open for the bi lorry but you can only lift the lid with a key.

If it was just before it was collected and properly bagged and made no mess in my bin, then I really wouldn't care tbh.

How did you find out?

I would never dream of doing this. I would certainly ask - a person can always knock on a door and step back, social distancing is no excuse.
There are some types of building rubbish that the council won't take it needs specific disposal too.

Very rude!
I keep on getting a solitary been can or bottle left in the same spot on my front garden wall. Yesterday it was a Desparado's. I am wondering if my wall is someone's favourite drinking perch .

My neighbour has decided our garden is the public refuse tip - luckily only garden waste - but still hardly acceptable to throw your waste over the fence. I am tempted to retaliate by throwing over ours particularly all the brambles I have been digging out.

Very rude. At least ask.

My neighbours always ask. They know I put my bin out at the last minute because of Other Neighbour who puts non-recyclables in the recycle bin.

Very rude to do it without asking.
