Incredible Stories of Bad Neighbors Who Finally Got What Was Coming to Them

The Letter Must Have Worked

My wife and I were tearing down our shed to build a new one. After it was torn down, we had a pile of wood and siding waiting for a company to pick it up. After a week, I called them to remind them it still needed to be taken away.

We started building the new shed, and a week later the pile was still there. A couple of days later, I got a letter from the city stating the wood and tin needed to be gone within 30 days or I’d face a fine.

My old lady neighbor came over the next day and said the pile was an eyesore and the city would take action. 

To be clear, this pile of wood and siding stood three feet tall and was nicely stacked on the side of our privacy fence; our side of the privacy fence between her and us. This is a fence we erected because she complained our kids were playing outside and she wanted quiet when she was hobbling around.

A couple of days later the company finally picked the stuff up. She again came over, then said, “That letter must have worked…”
