Buyers want wheelie bins included.. after discount

[Sellthishousetorhosecunts]

Our lovely FTB 🙄have requested wheelie bins be included after generous discount… many unreasonable requests met!

AIBU to leave dead nan ashes under the floorboards & take the wheel bins as a summer plunge pool for the kids 🫣

This thread gave me a proper laugh 😂😂

I couldn’t think of anything worse....

I can. Inheriting someone else's even mankier, more germ-ridden bin when they get to the next house.😁

Effort and money it took me to order them.

I had to order a new bin after someone nicked mine, you literally fill out a tiny form online lol there was 1% effort involved.

I paid for our bins (and recently had to pay to replace a bin that got storm damaged) but not sure I'd want to take them with me if I moved. I wouldnt want the smell of warm sileage from our green bin pervading my soft furnishings in the removal truck 🤮 Surely everyone leaves their bins (with the house # on them)?

However if you are at the end of your tether with CF house buyers, I'd be sorely tempted to leave them a dead kipper behind the bath panel instead of your nan under the floorboards 😘

You didn't give them a "generous discount". I am willing to go out on a limb and state you took the best offer that you got. If you have agreed to their demands, they can't be that unreasonable. And no, you don't get to take wheelie bins with you. Poor buyers, I bet they can't wait for completion so they don't have to deal with you any more!

When I moved to my current house - a new build - I was given the option from my local council to take my wheelie bins with me or order new ones; this option only applies if you're moving to an area under the same local council.

Why anyone would want to take their smelly old bins to a new house I can't imagine but perhaps some people find it hard to let go.

What I did find rather annoying though, was the fact that there was no refund of the remainder of the yearly £50 I'd only recently paid prior to buying the new house, for my garden waste to be collected.

That apparently, for my local council, does go with the house rather than the person paying it.

Who goes to the bother of loading their bins up along with their furniture? You leave them there home your moving to should have bins.

Leave nan's ashes and the cat. Take light bulbs and loo seats.

Buyers can be terrible pains.

Who the fuck takes their bins with them?! That’s not a thing. Stop being weird.

Great idea!

Leave the cat? Absolutely not! I’d leave a kid.

imagine waking up from an operation and seeing that printed on your pillow!

Well but the OP may not have a kid small enough to use the cat door.

I'm in the process of buying as a FTB... It never occurred to me that bins WOULDN'T be left!

YOu didn't pay for the bins; you paid for delivery of the bins. They go with the property and will be on the council records as having been ordered.

Not necessarily true. My last house you had to buy one if you wanted one. I left it though, because who wants to take a gritty bin in the van?

You’re a sad and miserable individual.
Reep as you sow!

Something tells me that OP is not from the UK

no, some councils do make you source and purchase your own bins as stated by several posters on this thread. By source they literally do mean go and find, purchase and get delivered or collect your own bin. Council are not involved until it’s emptying time.

Leave your wheels bins. Who the f takes their bins?

You taking the light bulbs as well?

What? Surely you weren't planning on taking your wheelie bins with you? That would be very odd.

Whatever next. FTBs will be expecting you to leave the tarmac on the drive, and the fence panels. Cheeky Fuckers!

This.

Ours were provided by our council, but we had to pay for a replacement when a firework zeroed one of ours.
