parks directly outside our house
If the skip bag is there for an extended time it can be reported to the local litter warden.Park your car there for a few weeks and give them the subtle message. It presumably is a public road so not much else you can do about it.
How will you find out who the landlord is? The skip bag is probably the only thing that you might have some control over with the landlord but if it is in the garden then probably not.
what difference does it make why, just because its outside someones house doesnt confer any ownership to the house owner, its not their property.Why does he park outside YOUR house? Is there pressure on parking spaces? Sometimes, people just get used to parking in a particular spot and come to see it as "theirs." Which it isn't of course. Make a point of parking there yourself. Borrow a trailer from a friend and park it in the spot for a few weeks. That'll train him to find another space.
Good to see you have decent neighbours, many's the car and trailer in that scenario would never be seen again.I once had next door neighbours who were a 3 car family. (We were a two car family.) We each had a driveway that could almost but not quite take two cars. There was one space in front of each house. So four spaces in total. They developed a strategy whereby the first of them to come home parked in front of my house, the second in front of their house and the third in their driveway. The first was often their teenage daughter who didn't use the car that much and regularly left it parked for days on end in front of us. Now this wasn't illegal of course, but it was decidedly unfriendly and unneighbourly. I asked nicely if they could see their way to a more reasonable arrangement. They couldn't. So when we were going on holiday one year, I borrowed my brother's trailer, attached it to my car and parked it outside the two houses for two weeks.
Point made, and their behaviour changed afterwards.
Suffice it to say we weren't the only people in the area they annoyed!Good to see you have decent neighbours, many's the car and trailer in that scenario would never be seen again.
When you say in front of your house were they blocking you in or just parking legally on public space that happened to be in front of your house ?I once had next door neighbours who were a 3 car family.

No, not blocking me in. But choosing as a deliberate strategy to park in front of my house rather than in front of their own. Like I said, perfectly legal, but un-neighbourly.When you say in front of your house were they blocking you in or just parking legally on public space that happened to be in front of your house ?
In your opinion , if it’s not on your property they or anyone else are perfectly entitled to park there, might be annoying but it’s public property.No, not blocking me in.

Our positions are not mutually inconsistent. Their behaviour was both perfectly legal AND un-neighbourly. And yes, annoying and inconsiderate too.In your opinion , if it’s not on your property they or anyone else are perfectly entitled to park there, might be annoying but it’s public property.
We leave the space in front of our house for others and park across our gate to leave more spaces for everyone. Life is short, seems like people would benefit from trying to focus on bigger issues.
I can't fathom how it matters that much.
