THERE’S nothing worse than a nightmare neighbour – whether they complain about noise, always steal your parking space or are simply a busybody, living next door to someone you don’t get along with can make life that little bit harder.
But particularly when you move to a new neighbourhood, you probably want to do what you can to make a good impression on your neighbours.
One man has seemingly got off on the wrong foot with his new neighbours – as they sent him an angry note calling his house "trashy" just days after he moved in.
The man explained that his family are still in the process of moving into their new home, and had decided to throw out an old sofa that had been left in the property.
Once it was scheduled for collection, the man moved it into his front garden so the removal people could collect – but his neighbour said he was treating the space like a "junkyard".
In a post on Reddit, the dad, who is from the US, wrote: "Family just moved in. Got this letter. Left couch out for the trash. Kids play in the front yard."

He also shared a picture of the note, which read: "Dear new neighbour, we have all lived in this neighbourhood for, most of us, over 20 years.
“We all have meetings and talk to each other.
“We are happy you're here but you already look like you don't care what your yard looks like.
"Swingsets belong in the backyard, and PLEASE remove that eyesore of a couch OFF the kerb.

One person said: "I can't stand nosey neighbours. My neighbour hates trees and is always trying to make us cut our trees down. My yard, my trees and if I want, my couch.

Another added: "I lived in a decent enough neighbourhood and put a couch out on the street for big trash pickup. Never heard anything about it. Your neighbour sucks."
A third posted: "Don't do the passive-aggressive s**t, just start chatting to the neighbours and letting them know you're waiting for the sofa to be picked up, and how your kids love how safe it is so they now also play on the lawn."
