I'm frustrated that every night before bin collection some rando parks right in front of where our bins need to be placed. I put them where they're supposed to be but it risks damaging their car on collection and I will not be a dickhead and put the bins around their car which would block them in. What do you do? I have to do the "missed collection" request with the council far too frequently due to this and the best ideas I have is either leave a note or buying traffic cones :/ Every bloody week this happens.
I'd be the dickhead and block them in. Imo not worth having your bins missed repeatedly because they needed to claim that bit of public land for storage of their private property. It's not like they can't move the bins if they needed to.
Or at least the traffic cones with a note
I put the bins out really early before they park there if I can. Mr P stands there and rants like a maniac loud enough for half the street to hear π€ Then sometimes I just have to put the bins close to their car because I have no choice π€·πΌββοΈ
They literally don't care and park in front of them even if the bins are already out π€·
Guess what, another request for a missed collection today.
