His Neighbors Keep Blocking His Trash Cans—Leaving His Garbage Uncollected for Weeks

If a person’s trash doesn’t get picked up, I’ll go ahead and give them a pass for being angry.
Because that’s totally annoying!
It’s one thing if the garbage collectors missed you for some reason, but if your rude neighbors are the reason that you have to watch your trash collect for yet another week, well, that’s unacceptable!
Check out why this guy is ticked off about what’s going on in his neighborhood.
Garbage can wars.
“I need to vent about my jerk neighbors and maybe some get some advice.
All of my neighbors are jerks about parking and garbage cans.
On garbage day we would normally take our cans across the street for pick up since we do not have access to the alleyway behind our house (theres another unit). Both neighbors directly across from me decided they didn’t like that we did that.
The first one, he has a large truck to hold his spot so no one can park there or has a cone he sets out cause apparently he owns the street in front of his house.
Okay, whatever you say…
He complained that he didn’t have room for our garbage cans so we started putting it down one house cause we didn’t want the drama.
That’s when our new neighbors with an ugly Cybertruck and 4 other cars moves in to that house. At first, everything was fine. Then out of nowhere they decided that the garbage can lids hit their car when the garbage was taken.
They asked us to stop putting them there. But we have nowhere else to put them! We asked them to compromise and move their car a little so there’s room.
They did move the car a little so we kept doing it.
This whole thing is a mess…
But they moved our cans ON PURPOSE so they don’t get picked up. They even tried to get us cited for having our cans out too long (they weren’t). Now it’s an all out war on garbage day.
I’ve signed them up for Scientology and reported their car that sits there and never moved as abandoned. Today the parking enforcement finally comes and that neighbor happens to be outside.
Uh oh…
My camera only picks up video, no recording but I see him pointing our direction and then at his house while talking to parking enforcement.
Parking enforcement LEAVES without citing his car.
That car takes up space so the loud Mustang on our street doesn’t park there, and it’s been there for months at this point.
I am so sick of my neighbors.
What would you do in this situation?”
