How to deal with neighbor plowing their snow on my property?
Hi everyone!
Recently, we had a large snowfall (10”) and when I went to clear our part of the alleyway, our neighbor’s snow removal provider plowed all of their snow onto our parking spots. The drifts are up to over 8’ tall and by no means can be easily cleared.
How do you suggest I handle the situation?
So far I have done the following:
- talked to neighbor about situation
- he said he would call his father in-law to clear the snow as best as possible by end-of-day
- the father in-law arrived, but cleared VERY little of the snow
- I have not spoken to the neighbor yet after that
Thanks in advance!

@Jacob Beran I would continue to communicate to the neighbor what I expected to happen. Since you’ve done it verbally I would do it in writing. Take this as far as you need to take it to ensure this will never happen again because you were such a pain in the *** about it. Seriously, be memorable so whenever they hire a plow they make sure they don’t do this. Forget them handling this snow probably won’t happen but make sure they know you are pissed and if it happens again you are going to have your lawyer handle it.
