30 of the Funniest Pranks People Pulled on Their Neighbors

We’ve all had garbage neighbors, but some people are actually nothing but trash. A Redditor recalled the refuse war they got into with their neighbor, which started when a gust of wind knocked the neighbor’s bin over and dumped trash right into the Redditor’s yard. Instead of cleaning up the mess, the neighbor ignored the issue, which led to an introductory lesson in gaslighting.  

On trash day, the Redditor committed to waking up bright and early to remove his neighbor’s bin from the curb so their trash wouldn’t be collected. After collection, he’d return the bins to the curb for his neighbor to find them still full of trash. He kept this scheme up for six smelly weeks until city officials got involved. They never, though, found out who was responsible.

To that end, other Redditors have laid out their favorite ways of pranking their neighbors, and if you live next door to a jerk, you might want to add plastic flamingos, hot dogs and 5,000 dandelion seeds to your next shopping list.
