To think they should have covered their skip ...

People diagonally across the road from me are having building works done and have had a skip full to overflowing with scrap timber etc on their drive for a couple of weeks.

It was really noisy last night because of the storm, loads of stuff blowing around, gates blown open and clattering etc. When I looked out this morning, there was loads of builder's rubbish in the road and the skip has a lot less in it than it did yesterday. It's big bits of rubbish, too - pieces of plywood more than 2' square and lengths of 2x2 timber, plus 2 sides of a uPVC window frame and some glass are just a few of the bits of debris I can see from my window.

I think it's bloody dangerous. I wouldn't want to be hit by a bit of 2x2 travelling at 50 mph.

Surely they should have put one of those big nets over it to keep the crap in?

Actually my DP would offer to go and help tidy up mainly so-as to see what was in the skip that can then be brought back to our house. So perhaps posting about it on MN is a better option...

Contact the skip company ( name is on the side of the skip) and tell them what has happened and that the neighbour is away. The will be able to come and put a net over the skip to secure its contents
