View Full Version : Noisy neighbour - need some original ideas.

Got some inconsiderate pingpingpingpings in the house behind me who decided that having an epic pissup was a good idea last night. It sounded like a pack of apes having an orgy, added to the continual sound of what I can only describe as someone head butting a tin shed at 1am.
As a result I've had less than 5 hours sleep and I'm a cranky pingpingpingping.
Same thing occurs on the odd weekend (which I don't mind as much...but they are still fucking noisy well beyond 12am).
Could call police - but that will not do anything. Looking for some original ideas so I can have a bit of a laugh.
First thought is to remove the fuses from their meter box (I'm pretty certain that it is easily accessible by jumping the fence).
Also have a novelty megaphone - plays the Chinese national anthem in a high pitched tone. Been thinking of hanging that on the fence at 6am next time they decide to be noisy.
I do know it's a rental - not sure if I can find the landlord to discuss?
One of the guys works for some concrete place (I think), going by the company name of the truck that is always parked there. Wondering if I could call their workplace and spin some shit?

This.
Other option is a Parrot AR drone. Attach a servo-operated grapple hook/ drop-cage or something so it can carry a droppable payload.

Shit into it, fly it above their heads, and shower them with steamers.

What's their address?
Run it through RPdata, find out who owns house, send letter to house owner saying tenants are trashing the place, and you have overheard drunken activity of them planning to set up a hydroponic setup in the walk in robe..
They won't be there much longer.

Can't find anywhere on RP Data Site to do so & am having similar problems...
+1 for having a chat to them
they don't realise they're being loud fuckers cos noone has told them!
of course, if after a chat they dont quieten down, send a letter to the real estate. they will get a breach notice instantly.

I have a similar issue with my neighbours, I Live in a town house so I have a 2 bay garage and 1 street bay as with other people around me. My work ute parks in front and my evo + siblings car in the garage. Next door have 3 cars but like to park 2 on the street then invite their daughter to park in my bay for hours on end leaving me no where to park, annoys the shit out of me when I get home at 6pm and there's no where to park.
Then they randomly stay up until 2am drinking with their daughters’ baby crying on a week night. So I think I'll steal some ideas from here as I'm lost in what to do since I've talked to them and left them letters on their cars and it only seems to act as a temporary fix

Yep.
Had the same issues as OP with my neighbor. Contacted RPdata and they told me they cant give me the information, however under the 'freedom of information act' your local council can tell you the name and address of the person who owns a property on your a-joining house (for situations like fence repair etc). Got the information and notified the owner of the house :)

They take your bay you take the baby?
Or are you likely to wind up with no car bay and the baby in that scenario?

If its a bay at the front of a complex it is most likely visitor parking, not your third self proclaimed bay.
Had this issue last week
Park in front of a complex in a bay clearly marked visitor, guy walks out from front unit "hey you cant park there"
"why not"
"its where my housemate parks"
"it says visitor"

Calling the cops / council is pretty deterring for most people... Council probably more so then the cops as after multiple complaints (different dates) they send the house a letter warning you of the noise complaint fine they'll have to pay if they are caught again ($250 first time, $500 second time).
...True story, my house is on it's last warning. MOST people would be pretty wary of loud music if they thought a $500 fine was the consequence.

if all else fails get bigger badder speakers than them and when they are partying set them up near the fence and drown them out with deep south country and western. make sure its so loud they cant even hear themselves think.
speak to all other neighbours beforehand to let them know you will be fighting back, encourage them to do the same.
if that fails, start getting any cars they leave at home during the day taken by sims metal, leave them the coles-myer gift voucher if you're feeling kind.

i had this issue with my neighbour,
except she was pissed off that between the hours of 6pm - 10pm every saturday i would have my mates over then we would head out, as i lived in the city. this brewed up into a huge ordeal.
when reality is, i am a reasonable guy. if she came over knocked on my door i would have gladly turned the music down. but no.
she decided to call the police one night, let them into my apartment building then they knocked on my door. luckily 2min earlier i had turned off music as we were about to head out for the night. - all further claims by her have been rejected by the strata company.
in short, dont be a douche or the angry neighbour just go talk to them

Put a garbage bin full of water leaning against their front door, then ring the doorbell.

Hahaha I'd rather not be stuck with the baby. Although their daughter is decent.
The Idea of the jacks has been brought up with a mate of mine, I'm a deep sleeper once I'm asleep so we thought to jack his p.o.s merc up and place it sideways in the street essentially blocking it off, on a bin night of course. 6am rolls around and he's getting some abuse and or forks in the side of his car.
Would be quite epic actually.

Dont complain when Mr Herp and Mrs Derp report your car because they think you accelerated out a corner too fast for their liking.
Go talk to them and ask them to chill, or join in the fun.

I agree if its one night, let it go.
If its a weekly occurance, go over for a chat. Just be civil and keep your temper and they will oblige.

its not your responsibilty for them not to be rude pingpingpingpings tho, you go round there, show them you disapprove. they decide to be wankers (large majority of the general public are) take the piss and escalate the noise. other random neighbour then calls cops and they assume it was you.
things can get out of hand rather quickly.

1kg tub of brightly colour oxide (orange, blue or fire engine red work well) on washing, lawn, walkways etc.
Water just moves it to another place till it drys and makes a mess again and again and again.
fuck everyone else's revenge/shit on their lawn/play your music louder ideas.
Unfortunately, when we had issues with our neighbours ages ago, the only thing that ended the "war" was buying a massive stereo and playing it loud, often.
They moved out within weeks.
We used to have the same problems with the tennants above us before they moved out, they'd have parties on tuesday nights until 2-3 morning, happened every 3rd tuesday, which we think was from fifo worker.
Before they moved out, the last party they had, someone threw a brick through there window. Didn't have any parties or hear from the neighbours for 2 months after that before they moved out. Landlords came over and asked if we knew they were cooking shit in the shed.

Gearbox dumping is rad, preferably heavy 4WD boxes with the transfer case attached.
I'm all about face values with people, I always went to our surrounding neighbours to let them know if I as having people over for drinks. I never got that in return from them, and they play music loud untill atleast 1am before it gets turned down, I never said a word. First night I got my 31 running straight out of the dump pipe, they called the police on me. I hadn't even begun running the RPM's higher to get it up to operating temp.
Next day, 7am, when I was legally allowed to start it again, straight out the pipe, I drove it around and around and around the block, for a good solid 40 minutes. I don't talk to any of them anymore, and the lady whom is stones throw away, cops the bird every time I see her, oxygen theiving inbred degenerate scum.
But, best thing if before it gets to far out of hand, is just have a chat to them and let them know that perhaps they shouldn't be fuck heads. It isn't hard, and if they are decent people, the message gets taken on board, and you score yourself a win.

Argh I HATE noisy, inconsiderate people!! CSB: House with backyard near my bedroom window has new dog. New dog barks a lot at night. Gave them time to do something about it, no dice.
I tried knocking on their door a few times but never was it answered so I structured a nice, but forceful letter with the problem, examples of this problem, and possible solutions before I took it further and put it in their letterbox.
The dog has been really quiet since and only barks a bit on weekends during the day, which I can cope with.
So I reckon try having a chat to them first, and if that does bugger all.... flaming dog poo.

Have a chat with them and ask them to keep it down, make sure you don't let them know which house you're from.
If the issues persist, do a letter drop at neighbouring properties asking them to contact the council if they're getting the shits with the noise.
If 5 people in a week contact the council, they'll act immediately.

Car idled for about 20 seconds while I put 2 spare tyres in the back of the ute and by that time the neighbour was on the driveway threatening to kick the shit out of my car hahahaha.

Speaking with them may have an adverse affect if they are a bunch of buttholes with chips on their shoulders. All they will do is make it worse for you the next time they carry on.
Will you be willing to take the risk that they are a reasonable group who will be sympathetic to your complaint? The fact is that if they are doing it now, they more than likely have little respect for those around them, and will continue to carry on once they get a skinfull.
If you complain now and they are dickheads, your options will be limited because they will know that if anything were to happen to their property, you will most likely be the first person who they come and see.
Weigh up your options and make a descision based on your judgement.
In saying that, I had an issue with a bunch of fucksticks next door to me many years ago now. I knew by their appearance that talking to them would not solve the problem. I went over there in the wee small hours of the morning after one of their late night parties and drained the oil from the 2 cars in the driveway.
I didn't solve the issue, but it made me feel better.
