Well we are all different but personally I think that a letting agent and landlord have a duty to try and keep the neighbours happy. A few on here seem just happy that the rent is being paid and define that as a good tenant. Personally I would not want a fleet of white vans down my street or building materials all over the drive. Some should try and think about what sort of environment their old neighbours have to live in. A bit like these people that build a house in their back garden and then fook off so their neighbours have to live with it.

My wife took the old kitchen to the dump herself rather than wait for the kitchen fitters to do it as they left all the debris on the drive. My son in law drives a van but we try and keep it out of the way if he visits in it. There are plenty of estates for van drivers to park and nothing wrong with keeping certain standards be that long grass, trimmed hedges or ensuring the front garden is not a block paved parking lot. I grew up on a council estate but have moved on.

Long story short was a word in the tenants ear sorted the issue as opposed to deliberately escalating it by sending stupid second class letters to the complainant.

So if you own a van your a council estate dweller? Ill happily have my van parked on my own drive in my private estate. Big ghastly rust marks up the side too. I work hard, I pay for my house and ill Park it right outside and be proud.

My cul de sac has a covenant banning commercial vehicles.
I am coming to the end of some building work. I have made sure that all the tradespeople parked their vehicles at least 500 yards from my house as I don't want dirty vans near my property.

How do you manage to get any deliveries?
