    Council wanted to charge us for disposal, left ours in the front garden and the refugees passed and lifted it in minutes!

    Be careful about leaving things like boilers on public pavements. If anyone hurts themselves on the myriad number of sharp bits, then you're in trouble. I always leave them visible but inside the property boundary and they still seem to go reasonably quickly.

    I always leave any boilers I change outside the house. They are normally gone by the end of the day. Record so far.... about 4 minutes. We moved the boiler outside and then started to make a cuppa. The kettle hadn't even boiler before the p!keys rolled up outside.

    i always leave them outside while i am on the job and then if there not taken i then take them myself.
