Dilemma.....

[metalblue]

Retrieve offending rubbish from said bin and spread it all over their yard. They won't say owt and you won't have to.

 

[toby]

Go and find yourself a mirror.

Sit yourself down in front of it.

Compose yourself.

Look yourself in the eye.

Say the following words:

"Get a fucking life you dick".

Repeat this exercise until such a time as you can tell yourself that you have indeed got yourself a life, demonstrably measured when such minutiae and trivia no longer perturb you.

You will be all the more happier for it.

Doesn't really solve the problem with the bins though....

This had me in fits of laughter you 2 should be a double act ;o)

Evening campers, just got in and emptied my kitchen waste and found that someone else on my road has yet again put their rubbish in my (clearly labelled) mixed use large wheelie bin outside. As I live on my own it happens quite a lot as I normally have less rubbish than couples/families and in general I don’t mind the odd extra bag. However it’s been happening more and more since Christmas and I have known for some time which house it is.(They often leave evidence in the form of envelopes etc!)

I am on ‘nodding terms’ with the guy and have had a few pleasant ‘stop and chats’ with his wife/girlfriend/partner and they seem pretty nice middle class people. Obviously I don’t want an argument after recent well documented tensions on my street but it’s getting to the point where it’s filling up my bin by Friday/Saturday leaving four days until the collection on Tuesday. (actually it’ll be weds this week because of bank holiday-grrrr) Also when the bins have overflowed in the past it's attracted urban foxes to the area which we know can when hungry attack small children....

Now, my question is how would you handle this? A knock on the door and casually mention it with a smile? A friendly note through the door? or perhaps one stuck to my bin? I don’t want to cause a big issue and will even say to them that if they are struggling for space and I have room they are welcome use mine, providing they ask me first? Also if they deny doing it I’ll be forced to let on that I've been through their waste and kept evidence which I admit makes me look a bit weird in the eyes of a stranger.

Any ideas?

Get some dog shit and carefully scrape it onto the handles or parts where they lift up the lid. Yes - it's a bit extreme but I am betting they won't use your bin again...

Yes but it's my bloody bin- it may stop them dumping refuse in it but then I have a shitty bin.....Have you thought this through at all?!

You could set up a camera focused on your bin.

Course it would need to be in addition to all your other cameras.

Then you simply clean it off with a pressure washer and the problem has gone away for ever.
A problem such as you have requires you 'to think outside of the box' you need to be creative, you need to be extreme. You need to put an end to it - once and for all. I can only offer advice and assitance it's up to you to implement it. You need to sit down and ask yourself just how badly do you want to rid yourself of this abuse by your neighbours? Only you can answer this question honestly and truthfully...

Smear some of that really lethal poison on the handle or lid of the bin. Make sure you tell the binmen to wear gloves though because they're only doing their job and it wouldn't be fair if their bodies collapsed in a heap, going into uncontrollable spasms and convulsions before their internal organs melted.

It is getting a bit crowded at Brooklands Towers...

I'm gonna knock on later, they seem pretty decent people (although she has a mini rag kit in the rear view of her Astra.) It'll have to escalate quite seriously before I consider going hunting for fresh dog turd and smearing it round the edge of my bin and quite frankly even if it stopped them dumping their litter in my bin, I'd still feel like I'd lost. It'd be worth it to see our snobby bin mens faces though- they'd probably all go on long term sick with PTSD!

 

[Tuearts right boot]

I'm finding this all to difficult to understand. Brooklands is such a nice area full of nice people with nice cars,as M33 should be.Unless of course we're talking Brooklands,M23, in which case this sort of behaviour is totally acceptable.
