This is the view out the northern window in my bathroom. My neighbor has been cleaning their yard for years, which has just involved them piling garbage in a trailer. The trailer has never been emptied, and At this point I doubt they could move it without the majority of the trash falling out.

Luckily the fence on that side of the yard is 6 feet, so I do not really see the trash under normal circumstances.

    I would probably send it a complain to the city.

    Although you might not see it often due to the fence (can you not smell it) that much garbage probably is enough to cause substantial pollution being exposed to the sun and rain, and could also pose a fire risk if any batteries or chemicals made it in there.

    There’s a reason people can’t just open up a business as a private landfill wherever they want.

      Yep. Get a Pm2.5, CO2, Formaldehyde, and VOC sensor (roughly £20) and start recording the levels.

      That’s a health violation
