This is something that a lot of people struggle with daily, whether it be neighbours or passer by vehicles, if your lawn is exposed and there is a space limit on other resident’s driveways, your lawn might just be the one place everyone parks.
These situations can happen with or without your consent and it can be very annoying at times and can cause you stress or anger, especially, when your lawn is looked after and maintained and then a vehicle creates tyre marks on the grass, or even take out grass completely when parking on the lawn.
It can be a difficult and complex situation to take care of, because strangers are involved and it is always important to keep matters civil, therefore, it should be managed in a decent and ethical way, certain tips to keep in mind when approaching these strangers or your neighbours are:
- Leave a kind note asking to avoid parking on your lawn as you are trying to keep the grass maintained and cared for
- Call or text your neighbour and ask them in a friendly manner
- Go over to your neighbour’s house and ask them in person
If none of these tips work for you, and the unauthorized parking continues, or some feedback from the other individuals are negative and ignored, you might want to consider a more permanent barrier to prevent strangers from parking on your grass.
There are various types of barriers you can make use of such as palisades, fences, concrete placeholders, or cement spheres placed on the lawn to restrict access to your garden. Some of these are entirely permanent and cannot be removed which means that it will restrict you and your family from parking on your lawn as well.
The better option might be to install uPVC fences on your lawn to restrict any stranger from accessing your property. uPVC fences are low maintenance, aesthetically appealing modern fences that can be installed on your property to protect your lawn from unauthorized access.
