So an older dickhead comes to our front door while im at work today, my wife answers the door(which im pissed at) and the old man tells her to remove our trash can from the curb its a pet peeve of his. Monday is our normal trash day, we are one of three houses on one side of the street and Im the only one with a recycle bin. The city did not emtpy the can, I called them Tuesday morning they said leave it at the street and they will be by on Thursday to emtpy it.whenIarrived home she told what he had said and added that he told her if people dont move them he puts them close the garage doors.

LEO friend said if I catch him in act of moving our trash cans dont confront him just call police and video him doing it. IM PISSED friend said i could catch a civil case if i touch this guy on my property.

surveillance cameras are already in the works before this started....I moved trash can back out to street with a note.

Wow - way to over-react.

You are pissed because your elderly neighbour knocked on? you are pissed because your wife answered the door? You are pissed because he asked you to move the bin? WTF?

So you called the cops?

Go round and have a chat with him. He's your neighbour and is far more useful to you as a friend than an enemy. Be nice, take the high ground, make your peace and explain the situation.

If he gets pissy then so what? - it's a wheely bin FFS.

First world problems.

I have a neighbor who will always bring my trash can from the street to my house after pick up, and yes he is this "OLD GUY" as you put it.
It's not very far, still a nice thing to do.
I always try to help him with things.

Your guy has a problem.

If it's a pet peeve the old fucker needs to get over it and move on.

Just toss it in the normal trashcan. That's what I do. The recycling bins? I gave those to my mom who is into that sort of thing. It costs more to recycle three bins of different trash than it does to toss it in a landfill. Sorry. Fuck em.

ETA: the garbage truck comes around with an arm to scoop the can up, toss it in the back and drives down the road. Garbage man gives no fucks.

Probably not actually. Baylor people are tolerant of all kinds of trash cans. Oh, and we also leave Waco immediately upon graduating.

OP, spraypaint it green and gold. It's the only way to be sure.

Being the veteran of a 6 month trash can war I cant tell you how wrong you are.

My situation was different, but unless the township says its a no go, fuck that old guy.

I wouldn't mind if a neighbor wanted to ask me to not leave the can out or whatever.
It's that guys approach that would piss me off. At least down here, your first interaction should be a polite introduction.
You can express your wishes but do so politely with respect to the fact that each man is the king of his castle and can do as he pleases with his own shit.
Coming at me like an asshole will only get you asshole behavior in return.

Well said. To default to "fuck you" is more than a little harsh it is not wise. It is just not a useful way to deal with neighbors even pissy ones. If you have a long history of problems with this neighbor that is one thing but what you describe cries out for diplomacy and a friendly chat not calls to LEO and video surveillance.
