Wheelie bins

TBagpuss

She needs to let him no that he can't leave the bins on her land. Where he does ut them is not her problem. 

She may want to put some planters there as establishing a garden takes a while.

If he gets unpleasant about it may be worth contacting the council - they usually have a mediation scheme or other options of disputes relating to a tenant of theirs. 
Since she doesn't want a row with neighbours if it can be avoided, i would suggest that she lets him that she sympathizes with but unfortunately it simply won't be possible for him to continue to use her land, and that she can give him a week to get them removed. 

If it is feasible,out up a barrier of some kind (even if it is only a 6-inh tall bit of edging, or a row of whitewashed stones), to mark the border of her garden and to make it harder for him to argue that he is not in her garden.

Nothing to do with the council, as it is private land.

How long has your daughter had the neighbour trespass onto her land to wheel his bins for collection day?!

What about when the neighbour wants to put rubbish INTO the bins? How many times a week/day is that?

It's a tenant of a council house who is causing the problem, so it's not really nothing to do with the council. Perhaps he thinks that he has the right as part of his tenancy to do what he's doing - the council might be able to put him right.

Just because the neighbour was possibly able to bully the previous owner into allowing this doesn't mean the new owner has to put up with it.  Time to grow a pair.

Cheeky bar steward.  Shift them back onto his land, and put a couple of big planters with nice plants under the kitchen window. 

This is what I would do.  Easy and straightforward - if there are good heavy planters there, he will have to find somewhere else to keep his bins.

Can imagine it smells lovely! I definitely would not allow it. How you handle it is down to her, but it would be easier if they were replaced by something else temporarily. Maybe after bin collection would be the best time.

I can't imagine anyone being happy to house their neighbours bins on their property. What on earth was the previous owner thinking when they agreed to this. 

I'd suggest your daughter stick a letter through the neighbours door and politely explain that whatever arrangement they had with the previous occupier has now ceased. Give them 24 hours to come and collect their bins. If they ignore it then move the bins herself back to the neighbours property.

leasehold means she leases the land. Therefore it is hers

OMG the poor woman. I hope she feels empowered from hearing people's replies. What a rotten nearly neighbour she has.
