I would try approaching in a friendly matter to see what their justification is.


My neighbours did this with their bins, though clearly one of them had movement issues. They've had a disabled bay put in eventually. That is the correct way for them to deal with it.


No one has the right to reserve a space with a bin, if they won't engage to talk with you about why the would reasonably need it. Just Park in it regardless.

It is definitely illegal as it contravenes the Highways Act 1980.

You can take pictures and report it to the council. They can potentially receive a fine and/or be prosecuted.

I've had the same experience on my road where parking is limited due to the number of driveways. I've moved them out the way and parked there if necessary and left notes to say it is illegal. However if I do continue to experience this problem, I will be reporting it and taking next steps.


Hope this helps!

It?s only ok really when expecting heavy deliveries/builders (ie. not Ocado).

The norm seems to be if we see bins out like that, it?s for this purpose, so we respect their need and look elsewhere.

Constantly hogging the same space is out of order, move the bins to pavement.

BTW - do you ever need the space yourself ?

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
