the most frustrating part is that it most likely been taken to weigh in as scrap for a meek £5.

We recently bought a new dishwasher, as i took the old one out i put it staight in front of the garage door.I went back in the house to wipe the
floor, then went out to get the pipe off it and it had gone. I was going to put the thing on Freecyle for some less fortunate person. The thing is I
had a scafold pole outsie for six months and they never took it because it was too long for the truck.

My sympathies. Some so and so knicked my trolley jack which was a pain as I had to get a new one.
One of the rag and bone lot came along and took the old cooker we marked up for them, but also helped them selves to my alloy frame bike that was
covered up further up the drive and a few neighbours' kids bikes. They left the rusty steel frame bike that was on top of the ally bike mind.

This sxhit is so annoying.
A few months ago I trailered a green house dismantled, for 130 miles. Left it in the trailer over night as it was late and some scummos nicked 6
lengths of thin angled ally.
Inspector wifey rang up the nearest scrappy who said yes someone has brought in a few lengths of taped together ally. He told her to come round and
let her take it. Only problem was they had started to cut it up, so green house is unusable. The subhuman types couldnt have got more than a £1 for
it.
The only possible good outcome of this was that the scrappy said he knew who it was, he wouldnt tell us but said he would "sort it"
whatever that may mean

I had to get rid off a car tyre, rather than pay displosal fee at tyre change place  , I left it ouside my house.
Within a couple of days it had gone - I relied on the fact that there was a pub nearby to ensure its disappearance. 
Now that the pib has burnt down, it probably wouldn't work now.

They probably used the tyre filled with petrol to start the fire It would probably have been rolled down the road and left in someone else's
garden for a laugh by some p!sshead

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

We had a grotty green carpet that I had used on the gargae floor while building the car took it out rolled it up and left it on the drive. It was
covered in swarf, silkaflex, oil, rusty water from the cooling system etc.
2 days later it was gone. Saved me having to take it to the tip. Didint mind that one the one that racked me off was when the pikeys nicked the
exhuast from the sierra that I had left lying over the roof of the scrap shell problem was I hadnt taken the lambda sensor off it GRRRR

We recently bought a new washing machine and I plumbed it in. I then put the old one in front of the garage doors as I planned to take it the tip
when I got back, lo and behold when I got back it had gone.....saved me a job but I live at the end of a close right in the corner of a small drive
with 2 other houses before mine!!
Makes you think do they come round everyday and look for stuff or was it just a one off

there was a story about someone in US wanting to give away a freezer or dishwasher so put it on his drive with sign saying " free dishwasher,
working order".
weeks went by and it was still there 
then changed the label "dishwasher for sale $ 20" and it was gone by the next day

Weigh them in - not sure what the current prices are but last time I weighed some alloys in got about £1/kg (without the tyres on obviously).

Someone came down the drive near my garage looking from scrap metal and tried to take my workbench from right outside my garage doors- despite the
fact that it was clearly in use with a great big bit of metal angle on it that I was halfway through chopping. Probably wanted the angle as much as
the workbench.
I explained in my best anglo saxon that I was quite attached to my workbench and unless he fancied an angle grinder vasectomy he was best to leave it
alone.
He didn't look best pleased. Bizarre thing was that he seemed rather surprised that I was going to let him take a workbench I quite clearly
still had use for!!
