Neighbour skip on my front lawn

The question that's baffling me, is, why? The offender lives 4 doors away, so whatever they are filling it with has to be carried out to the road, 4 doors along, and in again. If they have builders or contractors doing that, then surely they would wonder why it was not placed on the property being worked on, which has it's own drive. Not a very efficient way to work.
If it was a shared drive or similar, I could understand it, but 4 doors away? There's got to be more to this...

Perhaps they are jealous and want to ruin your nice lawn?

The skip should have gone by now. Wonder if OP will come back with an update?

I went VERY POLITELY to ask if it was their's and why did they have it placed on my property. They went absolutely ape sh*t for me, i tried asking them to calm down and there was no need to get aggressive or angry. Eventually seeing that there was no way of calming the situation down i left.
Is there anything that can be done about it? The neighbour does have a private drive on which they could have placed the skip right outside their own house.Should readdagsky1 said:Hi all, hope i can get some advice on a situation, new poster on MSE has had a post placed on my forum right in front of all the other posts. I went VERY POLITELY to solicit advice. They were very helpful and offered loads of replies in support. Eventually seeing that there was no way of calming myself down so i left.
Is there anything that can be done about it? How do we stop hit and run posters like me on the forum?
