One man, who lives in the same complex as an elderly couple who go out and hide others peoples' bins if they aren't put back promptly after collection day, is starting to get annoyed

A lot of us will be familiar with neighbour rows over parking or noise - but this one takes things to an entirely different level.

One man is fuming with his elderly neighbours who will hide his bins if they are not put back promptly after bin collection- he has previously found his on another street.

He lives in a big townhouse complex and has started to notice the antics that his elderly neighbours get up to on a Wednesday night after bin collection.

The frustrated man has spent the last day trying to find his bin again after it was moved after bin day - but he has no idea where it is.

In his Reddit post, he added that he has phoned the council who send new bins - but he think it's getting silly now.

The man, who remained anonymous, wrote: "One of our neighbours are an old bored couple and if us or any other residents in the complex don't move the bins by Wednesday night (rubbish is picked up 4am Wednesday morning) the old couple go hide the bins away from the complex.

"A few times I've found our bins a few streets away while going for a walk and for the last 24 hours been searching for them again. I've rang the council again and they are now sending out another lot of new bins, this is becoming silly now though. What should I do?"

In response, many sided with him and offered a wealth of advice on next steps he can take.

One person wrote: "Confront them about it and see what they say. Tell them they have been seen taking the bins and if it reoccurs you will be making a police report."

Another replied to this comment stated: "Do this but get footage first."

A third penned: "In my area you have two days post-collection to bring them in before it becomes an issue."
