View Full Version : Stickin it to the neighbors

I've got some neighbors who just won't turn down their stereo. Sometimes it goes on for extended amounts of time like today for 4+ hours. This isn't at a volume where I can just slightly hear it, but often so loud that if done early enough, it will wake me from sleeping even though it's coming from the opposite side of the apartment. So loud that even turning on the TV or my own radio doesn't drown it out. So loud that I can understand the lyrics of what they're listening to.

I've been over there on several occasions and requested that the music be turned down. Sometimes they'll turn it down a notch or two but never to a satisfactory level, and the conversation comes with a healthy dose of attitude. At this point, they know it bothers me (and others?) but obviously don't care.

Numerous complaints to apartment manager have done nothing. I've been told flat out that they will not evict anyone based on noise complaints alone.

What's left to do? This has been going on for at least a year now.

I've given the Anarchist's Cookbook a quick read and don't see anything relative in there.

I've considered going outside and unplugging their power meter (http://farm1.static.flickr.com/6/9849017_2cae763a1d.jpg) to disconnect their power and possibly taking the meter with me. That would put them out of commission for at least a day or so, but would not want to be caught doing that.

Also, since the office has already informed me that they will not evict tenants for noise violations, I've considered buying a cheap stereo receiver and large speaker to put against out shared wall and crank it up every day when I leave for work.

Any ideas on battling these irritants?

Yeah, I'd go for the stooping if I were you Skizo. Life's ignorant bastards bowl through life knowing they can do whatever the fuck they want to people who are more socially aware than them because there's this wonderful civilisation they live in that allows it. It's a dog eat dog world to these brave hoardes, laughing at those with manners as they kick sand in our collective faces, and they can get away with this precisely because they're being protected by idiots like us. We're there snivelling into our sleeves thinking 'whyyyyy? What did I do to deserve thiiiiiis?' and the answer is staring us in the face. They're doing it because we're too wet to want to upset anyone by standing up for ourselves. So the answer in your case is obvious. You know that pissing people off with loud music is deemed ok so you need to play by the rules you've been given. Get the cheapest sounding, tinniest midi system you can find and crank it up full blast butted right up against the wall when you go to work like you suggest.

I'm thinking that's the best course of action for now. I'm going to stop by the office one more time on Monday and let them have it. If they remain firm on their stance of ignoring loud music, I'm going to inform them to expect the situation to worsen, as I'll be fighting fire with fire. :sneaky:

1. Call the cops. They do address noise complaints (at least in the DC area they do).

or

2. Go buy a house ffs. The market is frigging shit for sellers and the fed cut interest rates to 3% so you should be able to manage the 5% you'd most likely get from a lender.

Low cost house plus low rate mortgage = means buy now, toopid

I thought about going to Home Depot and filling their deadbolt full of quick drying silicon a dozen times or so, but that won't send any signal to them about the music - that's the point.

I think a speaker to the wall is going to be my best bet. Especially since the apartments have already told me they'd do nothing about it.

I think it all depends on their age. From what you've said so far they seem to be 20ish, and really immature.

1) Make the fire alarm go off, as they leave their room and head for the exit sneak in to it and sabotage their stereo, I dont know how but maybe throw water on it and say it was on fire and you were just trying to help as you know how much they love that stereo. :D

2) Make a deal with them, give them one porn movie a day to keep it off for that day. :shifty:

3) Dont the other tenants mind? If they do then complain about it together, write a letter or something to your landlord and get everyone's signature on it. If this isnt the case then ask the bastards to put the volume high enough so it annoys the neighbours, do this a few times and then get the petition signed by everyone.

4) Do some damage in the building and blame it on them, but dont be too obvious and say something like "I saw these guys doing something there" :)

5) Pray that they die. :01:

I had one or two more idea but I am dead tired. I'm off.
I hope things work out for you.

And no, it isn't a buyers market everywhere. It may be turning that way here in Austin as it has already done elsewhere, but the cost of homes here is higher than I can currently afford and still be quite comfortable. Period.

Granted. I was just saying that houses are down everywhere. Whether the down price was affordable was another thing entirely. The interests rates are low and the houses are low lower.

I imagine that will change in the sellers favor later.

Hell I couldn't afford some of the smaller houses in LA. That and you pay too much for very little house.

Arbitration: A Better Way to Mend Fences
Not long ago, Michael Daly was working on a screenplay when his upstairs neighbor suddenly cranked up the Doobie Brothers. The stereo was so loud, says Daly, "I felt like I was inside a drum."

Daly thought about suing, since it wasn't the first time this guy had busted his concentration. But instead he tried something else: neighborhood mediation. At a free session sponsored by the Los Angeles County Bar Association, Daly's neighbor agreed to keep quiet. Total out-of-pocket expense: a $10 donation.

There are more than 500 neighborhood-mediation centers around the nation that specialize in resolving potentially bitter border wars. You may not be able to find an office in more rural areas, but they have popped up in nearly every metropolitan area in the U.S. in the last 15 years. "I can't think of a major city that doesn't have one," says Larry Ray, the executive director of the National Association for Community Mediation. Last year alone, these nonprofit centers, which are run by the courts in many states, handled about 600,000 neighbor feuds. Numerous other mediation centers are operated by church groups.

While most people are still unaware of neighborhood mediation, it's becoming increasingly popular for two reasons: First, these centers generally resolve neighbor feuds free. Second, according to the ABA, neighbors are able to settle their differences with the help of a mediator 90% of the time. The bar association says 85% of these mediated agreements are still in force six months later. "The mediator makes no decisions at all," says Cora Jordan, an attorney and author of Neighbor Law: Fences, Trees, Boundaries & Noise (Nolo, $16.95). "That's why these agreements last as long as they do."

Even if you doubt you could ever get your neighbors to agree to mediation, don't give up hope. Once you contact a center, the mediator assigned to your case will contact your neighbors and urge them to come in. Sixty percent of the time, both parties appear, the ABA says.

There's also been a proliferation of private mediators. More often than not, they are lawyers, psychologists or social workers who generally charge about $100 per dispute. Probably the only reason to pay these fees is simply that you'd feel more comfortable having a legal or counseling professional handle your case rather than a volunteer at a nonprofit center. "But even if you pay for mediation, it's going to be a heck of a lot cheaper than if you sue," Jordan says.

The place to find a mediator or a neighborhood center is the Yellow Pages, where they're generally listed under the heading "Mediators." You can also call the local bar association. Or the police. In recent years, some officers have begun carrying cards with the telephone number of the nearest center so they can have it ready when they respond to neighbor disputes.

An option to consider before bringing out the bagpipes.

Either move out or file a complaint at your local city hall and see what could be done further.

If the noise is done after hours, after 11pm, and as you say you are not the only tenant bothered by it, you could definitely call the cops. Since you already when to solve the problem face to face, try a different route. The cops are there to uphold the peace. If the landlord doesn't do a thing, you could also take it to the rental board office for a complaint.

Phone your mam and cry like a bitch down the phone to her, telling her all about the nasty man next door.
She'll send your dad down to sort out the problem, just like he's done every other time you've fucked up.


LMFAO!!!

No, no, no, they are the ones that should move out, I mean there are are all sorts of unexplored areas here.......... thoughtfully nailing roadkill to their door so they don't have to go out for takeaways, signing them up for every truly weird group that has a newsletter, leaning a large rubbish container against their door (make sure the contents are very liquid and very disgusting). Pentagrams and other demonic symbols are great as well, of course if you had an email address well that opens all sorts of other possibilities, but even just knowing where they live is handy for having an enormous amount of things delivered to them at all times of night and day.

You could become a real urban ninja in your quest to get them to quieten down, and think of all the fun along the way :naughty:

:pinch: I'm a bit slow, d'oh.

Well you could get some thin magnetic wire, buy it off ebay for cheap, tie one end two there power meter and the other end to a cheap model rocket and launch it off during a lightning storm. The wire will vaporize once the ligntning hits it. Remember lightning starts at the ground and goes up so it will have a direct hit to the power box. This will of course blow out his power and hopefully short out his radio so it can never play again. Don't forget though to have a long lead between your launch contoler and your rocket and after the strike pull the controller leads back to leave no evidance. I see them do something like this to make fulgurites. :D:D

Of course I can't stress enough how dangerous this is. :mellow:

That's if the lightning hits it (the rocket) and that's a big if :whistling

another option maybe to find a recently deceased rodent (your choice of roadkill as long as the tire tracks and/or other damage are at a minimum ) and then stuff him into the power meter making sure he bridges the bus and causes a nice short.
