The trash wars continue, people!<\/p>\n

In case you haven\u2019t been paying attention, let me fill you in.<\/p>\n

There are a whole lot of folks out there who think that the accepted rules of trash cans and who they belong to don\u2019t apply to them.<\/p>\n

And, as you can imagine, that causes a lot of issues!<\/p>\n

Take a look at what this woman is dealing with and see what you think about her situation.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI own my home.<\/p>\n

When it\u2019s trash day we take our cans out Sunday night and we share this spot with the people in the triplex behind us so there\u2019s like 4 trash cans and 4 recycle bins every week out there.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Hmmm\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

Someone from the triplex keeps putting there trash in our can.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been here since 2020 and it\u2019s always happened, sometimes we are so busy working 12 hours and doing house stuff we don\u2019t go get our can right away on Monday, we\u2019ll go get it like Wednesday and by then they\u2019ve already filled it to the top like they own it.<\/p>\n

Also pulling it up right away doesn\u2019t do much since we went Monday morning last week to pull it and IT ALREADY HAD ONE OF THEIR BAGS IN IT\u2026.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Now what?<\/p>\n

\n

I genuinely don\u2019t know what to do.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s kind of a big deal since they fill it to the top and we are stuck with like 5 bags of stinky trash lingering in our kitchen since there\u2019s nowhere to put them.<\/p>\n

My husband started dumping their trash bags by their trash can and pulling ours up but I\u2019m scared these neighbors might retaliate or be dangerous (I\u2019ve never met them).<\/p>\n

What would you do? Is there anyone I can tell or call?<\/p>\n

This is misery, I\u2019m sick of having a dirty house since I have nowhere to put trash.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
