to have thrown all the rubbish dumped outside my gate back into the mans garden who put it there?

[whoingodsnameami]

It has been there for 3 weeks, I have complained to the council 3 times who still have done nothing about it, despite the fact they admit its fly tipping, its all kinds of rubbish like, boxes, garden waste and carpet, well tonight I had a gutfull when I looked out my window to see a bunch of teenagers throwing it all over the fence into my garden, so I collected it all, and put it (neatly) back into the garden it came from.

Why did the man put his rubbish outside your gate, and do you absolutely know for sure that he did.

pmsl. No not unreasonable at all. I would have put some of my own in with it, just to be passive aggressive as well.

nametaken, absolutely positive, he does it often and does'nt try to hide the fact its him, but this time he put it outside my gate and all the neighbours were thinking it was me

YANBU...serves him right the dirty pig...I hate fly tippers/ litterers. If I were you I'd report him aswell.

I'm a bit confused here. Why doesn't the man put his rubbish out for the bin men to take? Is he mentally ill in any way?

What about complaining to the local newspaper

nametaken, its not rubbish that the binmen will take, its stuff that needs to go to the tip, like thick cardboard, garden rubbish, and carpet, and most of its not bagged.

I don't think this is the kind of rubbish that would go with the normal rubbish, nametaken - that would be in a wheelie bin. He's fly tipping - and not caring who gets landed with the bill or the bother involved in getting the Council to uplift it.

The OP is NBU at all.

Jesus Christ I'd be livid if someone did that to me.

Don't any of your neighbours say anything. That's really anti-social behaviour, he could get an ASBO for that.

I dont know if anyone has said anything to him, I have not seen him about, but 3 neighbours have commented to me thinking it was my rubbish, when I explained to them, 2 of them agreed to also call the council to put in a complaint, and I dont think the other one believed me.

I wont be surprised to find it back ouside my gate tomorrow. Tyhe council dont seem to give a damn so if it does I think I will have to take it to the tip myself before it gets chucked all over my garden again by kids.

I suppose CCTV is out of the question? It does cost a bit to install though....

Afraid so

We used to live on the corner of 2 streets and there was one family who would send their children out with the bin bags - and they would dump them on the corner outside our bathroom window as they couldnt be bothered to walk down the hill. They would do this all week - never mind the fact that rubbish wasnt collected till Monday, and they actually had a front (unused) garden they could have stored it in, unlike us.

We got so fed up with it (in the summer it stank, and would attract all the flies/bugs/rot) we waited until there were 3 or 4 bags and carried them back to their house and dumped them right outside their front door in a huge pile.

After that we never had a problem, they stored their own shit in their own garden.

So YANBU, I hope he doesnt dump it back!

Just to add, the adults used to dump the rubbish there too, and knew exactly what the kids were doing and even when we brought it up they kept doing it.

Parents also used to stand outside my front door and holler for their children at all hours of the day and night - its like they didnt realise we actually lived there. The physical dumping back of their stuff seemed the only way to get through to them.

Our neighbours put out bags on the communal green area from the day after bin day. The seagulls, cats or children split them in seconds and there's rubbish, foul nappies-and-food rubbish everywhere for ages.
Mrs Next-door to me opens her front door and fecks out her leftover food, straight from the oven tray "for the birds". It stays there for days and seems mostly to be "for the rats". We have to literally hopscotch over slimy rotting food to get to our front door.
So YANBU, its grimness. Next time fling in some of your own on top, that'll learn 'em

YANBU
I have done exactly the same thing on occasions
I threw back all the whiskey bottles that my alcoholic neighbour throws over our fence (and his cigarette stubs)
I also put all the plastic bottles that another neighbour put in MY wheelie bin in his wheelie bin (we now keep bins in the garage so it doesn't happen again)

bloody neighbours, I need a big detached house in the country (why did we buy a terraced house?)

YANBU. We had someone dump a bloody Christmas Tree on our drive. The really irritating thing was that we had just been to hte bloody tip with our own. And becasue we didn't know who had done it we couldn't put it back on theirs and since people had seen it on our drive we couldn't put it on the pavement either as then people would think it was us who dumped it in the first place. So back to the tip we went... Clearly not as minging as the 'food for rats' though. Grim.

So was it back in your garden today then?
