And biscuits & sawmill gravy - an possum sausage if they can afford it. Prolly can’t. Trash can trespassers. Pisses me off just to think about it.

Mmmm....the toter solution :)

As I posted earlier....I can't imagine a toter causing me any anguish, but a neighbor acting like an azzhole if I approached them nicely....

....don't push that button either. I'll simply teach you not to do that schit anymore.

Yano.... speaking of possums, it’s pretty common for varmints to try to get into trash cans at night. It’d be a shame if you caught a coon or a possum climbing into the neighbor’s trash and had to light it up with a 12 gauge 4 or 5 times. You might have to destroy the trash can in order to save it.

unclebilly 12-14-2018 06:32 PM

Get heavy monofillament fishing line. 40 lb test. Tie one end of a 30’ piece to their garbage can and the other to a parked car (bonus points if it’s theirs).

When the car drives off the show begins, the longer the line the better.

Set up a go pro or security cam to record the festivities and post it here.

Or load it up with a few rattlers. Kick it India Jones snake pit style. This will be the last time they leave their cans unsecured, ever.

If you do anything to the bins the city will just replace them when the neighbor calls.

Kill them neighbors with kindness. If their bins are kept beside their garage like most...If theirs aren't out when you take yours, take theirs and put them where their bins should go. If they are still out when you take yours back, take theirs back too. If they say anything, just say you thought they didn't know the correct way to put their bins out since they were always in front of your house so you thought you would help.

If after a bit they still put them in front of your house. Start putting your bins out in the morning of trash pickup. Every time they put theirs out the evening before...go out that night and Kick them over. Then after trash pickup, if they take their bins back and don't clean up. Knock on their door and tell them you would like some help cleaning up the mess from their cans falling over. If they refuse, leave the mess and put a sign saying "Trash left by next door neighbors." with an arrow.

possum sausage...you gotta be kidding.

Folks bake possums.

LEAKYSEALS951 12-14-2018 07:59 PM

Next midnight when they go to take out the trash:
Blare the song "Goodbye Horses" from silence of the lambs inside your house.
Dance out into the yard semi naked and ask your neighbor if they have any lotion.

Next day, after trash is picked up, put spare 1/2 used lotion bottles in bottom of their trash cans.

I didn't see your PM until early this morning...and realized an apology was necessary.

Although we discuss some serious topics occasionally here on PPOT, a huge portion of my posts are firmly "tongue in cheek", I don't use green font, and my attempts at humor just suck...I just don't take PPOT that seriously...

We're "good".... mebbe I can buy you a beer at Hooter's on San Jose some day ;)?

aigel 12-16-2018 04:28 PM

I would just relax. I really think you are making this a bigger deal than it is. If something like this gets you guys going, maybe it is time to move out of town where you can't see the neighbor. There is always something annoying going on in the neighborhood. We have it too. But I tend to just forget about it and let it go. Often it fixes itself, i.e. those tenants may move soon. Or in my case, another neighbor may call it in and get into a pissing match instead of me having to do it.

Good luck!

Have you talked to the property owner?

Tervuren 12-16-2018 04:56 PM

Does the wife do roof work?

Baz 12-16-2018 05:12 PM

A lot of entertainment value in this thread, for sure.

After some serious thought though.....I'm suggesting a letter something like this:

Dear neighbor,

I'm writing today in hopes we can resolve an issue that has been bugging my wife and I for some time now. I have mentioned it to you a couple times but it doesn't seem like anything has changed.

So, I've decided to put it in writing, in case it helps provide more clarification...and perhaps resolution.

The issue is the placement of your garbage cans in front of my property.

I would prefer (for several reasons) you put them in front of your property instead.

Please do us both a favor and comply with our request, as I would like nothing more than for us to remain on good terms as neighbors.

If necessary, I'm happy to meet with you in person to elaborate as needed. Otherwise, thank you in advance for your generous cooperation and all the best to you and yours during the holiday season.

Best regards,
Scott and (insert wife's name here)



Make sure you put the date at the top of your note and make a copy for yourself. Stick it in their mailbox, or snail mail it, or leave it wedged in their screen door. Your discretion on what fits best for the situation.

Baz, I don't think "remain" was the word you were looking for... or at least you could've put it in green font. :D


Other than that... solid effort, but I doubt if the azzhole neighbor would even read that note... he'd probably just ball it up and toss it.




Anyway, what's the latest on this situation, look 171?

Either that or pay a lawyer to fire off a letter to them

Something that shows your serious

It can't be fixed, Baz, because the school teachers of 30 some odd years ago (circa) let it through while grading papers.

wayner 01-16-2019 08:34 AM

I’ve given up spelling

My phone, fumble fingers and an autocorrect that jumps in and substitutes words I would never even use cause mayhem

Even when the words in my head are correct

It doesn’t help that my screen doesn’t even display a full sentence

I have read some crazy solutions to your problem with your knothead neighbor. Don't do anything that would be considered illegal. It is not illegal to place their trash cans in front of your home and the police cannot do anything.

If the area is an incorporated city, there are Code Enforcement Officers who can issue citations and fines for the placement of trash cans and storage thereafter. Research your particular area on the city's or county's website. Contact the owner of the home and let him/her know what your intentions are.

Stop playing nice with these type of people who don't care. Place your trash cans in front of your home and park your cars in front of your home on the street so your neighbors don't have enough room to move their cans in front of your home. Move their cans back in front of their home every single time they move them in front of yours.

I would escalate the situation in every legal means so you don't put yourself in jeopardy. PM me with additional details and I'll see if I can "influence" their behavior if you want.

Good luck, David

these guys are screwing around, only three are serious, I think.

My situation is parking is only on one side of the street. My side is empty so cars can go through. Narrow canyon streets. I am in Mt Washington. there is no way I am going to go nuts over trash cans or get into trouble with the law. not my style. Thanks for the tip. If you are LAPD come on up and let invite them for a party.

look 171 01-16-2019 10:16 PM

Here's the latest. I talked with the "Man" next door about it again. and demanded an answer as to why their cans are on my side. He didn't have an answer but a lame one after a long pause and I think its the truth. He didn't want to put his cans on the apron because its on a slope (the whole damn street is sloping). I told hims to pull it over to front of his house and he will just have to pull it another 10' up hill to the front of his garage. He agrees and walks off.

Well, it worked:)...up until the two nights ago. Its over on my side again. I think its easier to pull a can down hill then it is up when full, so its really late, with a little rain, they just leave them in front of my house again. it might be the wife, who knows?

She's a yoga instructor. They do own a yoga studio if you must know. With the new baby, they are quiet now so I can't complain about that and the house is no linger rented to air BB. That's a huge relief for all of us around here.

The property owner is worst then him. Allow them to built an outdoor shower on my side of the property. The owner on the other side is an absentee owner that rents to a very nice lady She's been there for ever. His fence is falling over onto my side. Will try to get pic when rain stops for ya. I just had the survey done for my property just so I can get them off. I really just want to go in one morning with a chain saw and throw their siht back on their side.

rnln 01-17-2019 12:11 AM

Do you see a reason they have to put those cans on your side? Do they have space on their side?

These new guys seem to think its ok for them to put out their trash in front of our house each and every week. My wife asked them nicely to put out their trash in front of their own house several times. All she got was a nod, turn and walk away. They put their recycling, yard and regular waste all sitting right there on the curb right in front of our kitchen window. Today, they won the award. They drag their cans around ours and left all three mid way in front, making 6 cans all lined up in front of my home. This siht has been on going on and they refuse to listen or give a siht. Issue is that they always overfill their and when it gets dumb by the truck, some of their trash falls off. I seem to be the dumb ass that have to pick up their crap constantly. What would you do? I am out of tricks and done being nice. Fooking people have no respect anymore. :mad:

Since my house was closer to the road, everybody assumed they were mine and would even ask me why I always leave my trash cans out :mad: Solution, ran a CL ad in the Free section: "6 large trash cans, like new. Free. Sitting by road. No need to knock on door, just pick them up." Gone in 3 hours. They bought all new cans and I did it again about a month later. After that, they got a dumpster and kept it back by their house. :D This woman neighbor, who was a doctor, was a complete psycho. Still can't figure out how they generated so much trash. Just 2 people and they'd have 5-6 overflowing cans every couple of weeks :confused:

Its usually very late in the evening, so I go out and ask politely with no result. This has been going on for just about a year. My wife is really sick of it and we get into it and I have to deal with that. Would you just come un-glue? Diplomacy isn't working too well for us

did you ask them seriously, or you asked them in a nice way?

Does anyone understand what the hell this means?
Do they live next to each other, or across the road?
How is the road sloped? Their road is sloped, and yours is not?
What direction is the slope, like your road is uphill or your house is higher than his, but across this street
