I once rolled into a pruning job in Silver Springs.
The homeowners were insistent on having everything cut back such that it did not overhang the neighbour's property regardless of how bad the trees would of looked. Apparently the guy was a bit of a kook. In fact, they seemed fairly nervous about it. They even warned me not to speak with him and promptly scurried inside the house.
Now, after a lot of years in the industry, conflicts along property lines were a very common occurrence that I had become fairly good at solving. Thus I wasn't particularly concerned.
Once off the ground, I got a clear view through the neighbour's kitchen window and things became clear...
The entire room and counter space was filled to about a depth of 4' with empty 4 liter milk jugs. The door to the basement was also full. The living room was also the same. Literally thousands. Thankfully he wasn't home!
We finished that job in record time.
