Sydney: So, picture this. A woman in Leichhardt opens her FOGO bin after Boxing Day, and it’s packed with junk—soil, rubble, and even some old household stuff. Can you imagine her frustration? She was understandably upset.
She didn’t know who did it, but she took to social media to vent. In her post, she jokingly cursed the mystery neighbour, listing all the annoying things she hoped would happen to them. Things like having a patchy internet connection and always stepping on gum. Classic!
People online loved her response. Many said they’d feel the same way if it happened to them. One person even chimed in that it happens to her recycling bin all the time. Seems like this is a common issue!
Now, this isn’t the first time neighbours have had bin etiquette issues. There’s even a mum who waits until late at night to sneak her rubbish into her neighbour’s bin when hers is full. Sneaky, right?
There aren’t any strict rules about using someone else’s bin, but it gets tricky when the wrong stuff ends up in the wrong bin. Like, household goods in a FOGO bin? Not cool!
If you find someone’s rubbish in your bin, you’ve got a few options. You can remove it yourself if it’s easy enough. If you know who did it, maybe have a chat with them. Or, you can call your local council for help. They’ll sort it out.
So, if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, just remember: you’re not alone, and there are ways to handle it!
