Default Anti-Parking Suggestions

I'm sure most, if not all, of us will agree that parking in garage > than parking outside. Having said this, when you have a garage, you expect to be able to get in and out with no problems (i.e. a dumb@$$ neighbor or their visitors won't park in front of it). My garage has a long driveway in front of it (it could easily allow two cars to park back to back) and, unfortunately, is right next to a set of stairs.

How would you guys take preventative measure to stop people from parking in front of your garage?

If it's preventing you from getting in and out?

And you know who's visitor or neighbor?

Ask them nicely or leave them a nice note to Please not park there or you're going to have it towed at his expense.

Report it to the manager if it's an apt.

You could put a towing sign with the vc and call a towing company to get it towed off private property.

Lol,

Always try to start off nicely before going balls to the wall.

Got to remember IF you leave it out? That neighbor/visitor may want to retaliate and take it out on your Z.

i left a huge@$$ sign on my garage door, all typed in bold lettering and in a plastic sleeve with heavy-duty tape. 2 days later, someone ripped it off (f*cking sh*ts).

It is an apartment and yes, it does prevent access to and from.

What's a vc?

That is for Vehicle Code.

I know locally IF you post a NO PARKING with the local VC a towing company will gladly tow it.

You need to check local laws/regulations but the post-and-tow method mentioned by others will usually work.

Picture a one-car garage with a long driveway in front of the garage door. To the left of the garage door, there is a set of stairs that leads to the second floor. The garage is on the first floor and there are apartments directly above.

Park on the street. When the A-hole parks in your driveway. Pull up behind him to block him in. Let me block him with my motorhome.

What you could do, is tie some empty cans to their car with about 40ft of fishing string and have the cans sitting under the car. They have to move some distance before the cans start to move.

Or get the biggest pair of granny panties you can find, and zip tie them to the rear of the car. Roll them up under the bumper so that you can't see them when you walk around the car. When they drive down the road. They will unroll and flap in the breeze.

We do this kind of stuff at work.
