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 🫣

Plunge pool? We actually use our wheelie bin in the lounge (too difficult to get upstairs because of a tight turn) as a sort of 'Japanese Deep Soaking Bath' At the moment we can only do this on a Thursday as the bins are emptied on a Wednesday.

As for OP's Nan's ashes - you can mix them with Polyfilla (power) and make attractive ornaments and literal ashtrays. For outdoor ornaments (e.g. bird bath, gnome etc.) mix with Portland cement.

Even in places where we had to pay for the bins there was no point in taking them since not every place uses the same exact bins.

Are you moving inside the same council area? If so just politely say no. If you’re moving to a new area I’d check to see if they’re provided first otherwise you might end up with 4 bins to store which would be a lot!

Agree. The OP’s username says it all.

Good God op, you really do sound like a piece of work. I hope I’ll never have to deal with someone like you.

wheelie bins are I assume provided by the council to the designated household. It is the property of the council actually.

Why on earth do you want to take a fucking wheelie bin with you?

Maybe it's you that was the greedy fucker asking over the odds for your house as you don't sound the sort to agree to a 'generous discount' out of kindness.
More likely their mortgage provider valued it lower or the survey threw up issues.

Take your wheelie bins (pay extra removals costs to have them moved) and light bulbs and look at them every day to remind you what an absolute winner at life you are.

(No one cba commenting on the ashes because it was obviously a shit joke)

Yeah because no-one is taking that seriously.

If you are serious then you need quite extensive (and probably expensive) help.

Agree about lack of self awareness. 🤯This post has massively back fired, OP. Maybe next time you're automatically assuming that it's the other person who's BU in any given situation, you'll take stock and question if it might be you.

Never paid for a wheely bin ever (my last house we ended up with 5 garden waste bins, 4 black general waste bins and 3 blue recycling bins) Never considered them anything other than property of the local council.

Different areas have different sizing and colours of bins and you best be aware the bin men won’t empty the wrong colour or size of bin

I think people are presuming these are council-provided wheelie bins when they seem to be ones the OP has purchased.

Didn’t realise you could take the wheelie bins! Aren’t they really council property?

but I feel your pain, we are moving and our Ftbs and a royal pain in our backsides!!! Over entitled and rude!

why would anyone buy a wheelie bin when the council provides them?

where does one purchase a wheelie bin anyway?

I've just watched Hatton garden on netflix where £14 million was hidden in wheelie bins for a couple of days. Are these the wheelie bins to which the OP refers?

It wouldn’t even occurred to me to ask. What if you move to a different council area? I have also put my house number on them. How bizarre.

Why?

They belong to the address, not the homeowner.

Didnt your council provide them? ours did. Why on earth did you pay for them when the council will provide them for free. Hardly the neighbours fault if you didnt ask the council for bins is it

We bought our wheelie bins on new estate so technically ours to do what we want with

Where we are, the bins are council owned and stay with the house, except the brown garden bins that you can rent, and they say take with you. Where are you?

Who on earth takes their wheelie bin?
Are you also taking all the light bulbs, pulling up the carpet, digging up the plants?
Wheelie bins stay with the property, it's you that's the CF.

OP, if you are in the UK, then you need to leave a working lightbulb, so please don't take them, that is so petty, also, bins are normally council property, so again, unless that is not the case for you, then they need to be left. As for the ashes, take your gran with you.

Don't forget to take the light bulbs too op 🤣

Lightbulbs and loo seat on the packing list!

You are being wierd. Bins stay with the house.

OP I think you're going to have to explain how it works where you live because all most people will have experienced is that the council supply bins to the house without any cost or 'time, effort and money' from the resident. They just magically appear and most people assume that they belong to the house and they leave them when they move.

Eh? Of course you leave the bins... arent they council property anywat?

Leave the wheelie bins you lunatic.

Ours all have the council name stamped on them and different colour bins for different types of rubbish, so it would look a bit odd if you took them to a new area.

Where the fuck do people live where they don't even get a proper council bin?

I've had three lots of bins. Never paid for them.
Never occurred to me to take them when moving.
