Skip left on my property

Since this thread appears to be one where silly ideas thrive, how about the OP buys his own skip lorry to remove the skip from his driveway and deposit it on the builder's own garden?
Auto Trader have a good selection of adverts, my favourite being a nice blue DAF LF FA LF 55.220 at a bargain £8,750 +VAT. It even comes with electric windows and CD Stereo
(Might be an idea to budget for a waste carriers licence too, just in case you get pulled over)

Quite. That's why my suggestion was to put the contents into your own skip and when the rogue skip is empty *then* place it onto the road.
ETA: Just realised that you didn't read the bit I quoted, just the bit I added on page 2.
For the avoidance of doubt:
1. Order your own skip.
2. Transfer the contents to your own skip.
3. Drag the now empty rogue skip off your property.
4. Call the council."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 -

You need to call the council first for a permit and don't forget to buy some lights and cones.0 -

TBH I don't think in Sillyland it is necessary to get the permit and comply with the regulations/conditions "In the future, everyone will be rich for 15 minutes"0 -

The idea is that it isn't your skip, you didn't order it, you haven't paid for it, it contains nothing of yours, ergo you don't require a permit or lights.
The skip company however.... They might be in a bit of bother."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 -

I think my idea is going right over your and Warwick's head. Whoosh!"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 -

Do you have any sensible ones? You've loads of reasons why the silly suggestions won't work, let's have your solution.
