Our neighbor loves hard rock and blasts it all day while working in his garage it is making us nuts. I have asked him several times in the last year to please turn it down he doe for a couple days then up goes the bass and volume.
What is best way to combat this? Come on Campers dig deep I know there are more warped minds than mine on here.
Shoot him!
Move to where the neighbors are farther away?

Learn to like "hard rock"?

Bring him some of your music to play instead?

Earplugs?

Build a wall?

Kind of hard to deal with it if it's noise during "legal" hours.

Whatever you do, don't watch "Fear thy Neighbor" on the ID channel for ideas!! eek

Geno
Buy him a gallon of ice cream or a 12 pack of beer, give it to him, ask nicely again.
in my old neighborhood i had a drunken azzhole neighbor who would come home from his roto rooter job and sit on a picnic table all evening drinking whiskey and blasting doo wop music. the other neighbors were scared of him because he was unstable and just looking for a fight. when he did that, i'd start up my mower and point the muffler in his direction and just let it run. it drowned out the doowop and i didn't really mind the sound of a lawnmower. i would also fire up my harley and point the drag pipes in his direction while i rev'd it repeatably while making imaginary adjustments on the carb with a screwdriver. we played this game for a few months and he tired of it.

oh, and this and numerous other neighbor problems are why i now live in the country. no neighborhood ever again for me.
Blast some hillbilly music back at him.
I have been thinking of mounting speakers on the back of my shed and blasting religious hymns from 8:00AM as he sleeps until noon every day. Guy is 60 years old think he would know better
Had that problem. Classical music, especially anything by Wagner, at full volume, gets the point across.

I like this idea, rap music too!!!
Sneak over to his house in the middle of the night. Plant a bag of coke under the front seat of his car. Call the cops and say you think you saw a drug deal going down in your neighbors driveway. Be sure to wear gloves when you plant the coke.

You come by that name, honestly.
Many communities have noise ordinances. You can get an app for your Android phone to measure sound levels.

LMAO! Seriously? If he's gonna go to the trouble of tracking down and buying coke, he may as well do a couple rails and rock out with the neighbour
I have thought about that trick Blackheart. But with my luck I would buy it from a narcotics agent. I've already spent 22.5 years of my life in prison on sleep release. I work for 10 or more hours, go home for sleep, and go back to do it again. Crooks must be watched 24/7. Be Well. Rusty
There are a lot of ways to skin a cat...........
Got a pair of these for a kid that liked music that I didn't....
He thinks I'm the greatest guy on earth now....
I'd never complained but I think he got the point.

when i was drag racing and would tune my motor on a Friday before the race saturday,the lady next door would call the cops. the cop was a friend who also raced mopars, he'd tell her as long as it was after 9am and before 9 pm, i could do as i pleased. the neighbors did get together and offer to buy me mufflers because the car scared the kids. told them i'd buy them so i bought race mufflers and put cut outs behind the headers for when i went to the strip.
Hahaha

I'm guilty of that. I have two older home systems and tower speakers in both of my bldgs.

I leave one on 24/7.
Check your noise ordinances, for DB levels and times in effect. If there's no law, first ask him if he's deaf, Then offer a nice set of earbuds and a personal player. If not receptive,

Speakers should be cheap at a pawn shop. And a crappy amp that barely drives the speakers. And a cheap tuner to get the religious music station, the more "contemporary Christian" the better. That stuff is objectively A W F U L.

1) Find out legal noise ordnance times.
2) Time +1 minute in the a.m. ...John Phillip Sousa at full volume....
Be glad it's not thug/ rap/ bass/meskin reggae/[bleep] sheet. My wife tries to distract me every time some worthless pos drives by in a clown car blasting that sheet. She says she can see my blood pressure rising. You can't imagine what goes through my mind when they park across the street at 7am on a Sunday and open all the doors and roll all the windows downs for everyone to hear. Keep telling myself almost. Almost there. We've been saving $ for almost 2 years to buy our place. Almost there....

Knowing that the guy sleeps until noon every day should give you a multitude of ideas. Outboard motors, motorcycles, lawnmowers...hammers and anvils...impact wrenches...Lawrence Welk, if you're REALLY irate with him.

I recommend Kenny G full blast

Extreme measures, I know.
There once was a guy who lived on the top floor of a six floor building, facing a courtyard enclosed on three sides. On the bottom floor were some folks of apparently Mideastern background. The folks down below would bring a hookah into the courtyard below in the early hours. Next would come some horrid blaring music that would wake all the neighbors who would start screaming out the windows.

One night that guy on the top floor had primed a bunch of handgun cases but not yet finished loading them. That guy may or may not have fired off a primed 9mm out the window at 02:00, the result being quite a bit louder than anticipated, yet it resolved the issuet. All was quiet for a few nights, but in time the hookah came out again. This time the top floor guy may have procured some 5.56 blanks. From what I understand of the story, the sound was a lot louder than top floor guy anticipated, and the muzzle flash was quite severe.

So ended the hookah parties, as I understand the story.
Give em doses of Lawrence Welk, He will either off himself or you’ll off yourself
Ultrsonic nausea and / or pain generators. Some pretty cool stuff. Check them out here:

Back years ago we had some doper hippies move into a second floor rental apartment above an old empty store building about a quarter of a city block away and commenced to playing acid rock music through their state of the arts stereo way too loud, making afternoon naps for our then infant and toddler daughters impossible.

What I did that put a stop to it was turn on my base CB radio, fire my linear amplifier up to maximum wattage, point my directional beam antenna squarely at their apartment, keyed up my mic and yelled, '' turn that loud bastard down or I'll be calling the cops!"

I guess it must've worked as their loud music not only ended immediately, you couldn't even hear the slightest hint of any anymore. I think hearing a strange voice blaring out of their monster stereo speakers must've spooked and made them paranoid too, because they moved out soon after.
Place ads on Craigslist and in the news paper...use his phone numbers and address...sell every thing u can see from the road ....all his chit Cheap... no texts only call between 8am an noon, better yet 1st come 1st served> come by and knock....must sell moving ..... get ya a beer and sit back !

Great idea!
Forgot to mention earlier this guy is anti gun anti hunting tree hugger....I just emptied a 30 round clip from the AR into my firewood pile. Going to go out every half hour until music stops
Cornhole his mom.
Then there might be two of him.
I've had kids pull up next to my truck blaring that crap. I've been known to hit the cattle siren on occasion, too. smile

I like the idea of blasting him with Wagner, Flight of the Valkyries in particular. Sounds like, victory.

Now that you mention it, I did that very same thing way back when....but I was mobile at the time. You probably blew out their speakers. All it takes is to blow in the mic. laugh
1bigdude: I did this once and got away with it.
Wait til summer and their windows are open and they are "away" a bit - then sneak over and get a garden hose going and wet down the offending stereo from OUTSIDE!
This was the only thing that worked in this particular instance.
And work it did.
First though, try calling the local law enforcement types and see if they concur its "disturbing your peace"!
They often can settle these types of things.
Good luck what ever you try next.

If he figures out who did it, he could also do the very same in retaliation.
next time you ask him to turn it down, tell him that one of the neighbors is a voodoo priest.
Then proceed to do the following after he blares his music

doe in heat scent or similar nasty scent in the vents of his pickup or car, the outside ones in front of the windshield.
if vehicle is unlocked turn the volume all the way up on his stereo.
anytime you find a dead bird, squirrel etc place it in his driveway in the same spot every time
loosen the lightbulbs outside his house just enough so they don't work plus 1 turn
let the air out of his tires down to 10 psi
anytime he leaves anything outside spray it with water
smear dog [bleep] under his door handle of his vehicle

do these in a way he doesn't know it's you.
LOL, that last part is "key".......
Last wknd in adjoining property, our neighbors to be continued working to bring back an old house that has been vacant. Some of their friends were there. All these staying in RV’s for wknds. They raised hell all nite Saturday nite. Ok...9am Sunday morn, I placed water muffs on a 200 hp 2 stroke Johnson and commenced prepping for lake. So, I reset carbs, idle, etc. After about 20”, they started packing and leaving. I think they understood. Damn funny tho.

Did this once for some kids across the way in town.

They liked to have dik swinging contests as to whose quad was louder, I think. They'd sit below my place on an old railroad bed and rack the pipes ad nauseum. So I put the water muffs on a 115 V4 Johnson and let them hear what a REAL 2-stroke sounded like for a while. They lost. They knew it. They ain't swung their diks again...…...……...
Bunch of darn fun Nazis here and all for a guy enjoying his music.

Bagpipe music on loud speaker
Walk over burst stereo over his head. Go home finish your beer.
Seen two guys on a jobsite carry on for about a week. Battle of the bands. One dude play rock on his radio, other dude playing country; playing loud just became obnoxious.

Foreman told both of them to knock it all off. The one guy with country decided to be diplomatic and just not bring his radio to the job.

Few days go by, the rock guy radio is about back to where he was all up loud again.

One of the electricians wired up the extension cord he was using into a 220 circuit. Next morn, 'kid rock' plugged his shît in, played for a few seconds real loud and smoke started coming out of it.

😄😂😂😂

Brilliant ... laugh
Learn about and play some harder rock, then break out the e-caller and carefully select some interesting "sounds" for him. If you hear gunfire...that's your other neighbors and you should faceplant your mug so you don't take one...

Nothing says you have the right to share your enjoyment to the extent it becomes an intrusion on my (already weakened) eardrums!

Something about - your rights end where mine begin.
My uncle told me in a similar situatikn he would duck tape a fog horn cannister on and throw it in the yard early in the am wnd they would get a clue...

Even better/worse, get a tape of a beginner playing bagpipes. I have heard my uncle when he started and I can't think of much that was worse to hear.
Snowflakes screaming because hildabitch lost.
I might know a guy who put skunk scent in a guy's car air intake. The guy was too far gone to understand what happened. But you might not understand the things going on after shift in a corrections institution parking lot. There's a bit of energy going to come out somehow. Interesting behavior. Be Well. Rusty
Buy an old McCulloch 10-10 chainsaw, and earmuffs (you'll need em).
When the music starts, cut something.
If that doesn't work after a couple weeks, start running it about an hour after you think
he went to sleep.

I don't know if I might've blown their speakers out or not but I kinda doubt it. How I got the idea in the first place was my mother-in-law used to be playing her electric organ and she'd sometimes get 'bleed-over' come through the organ speakers from truckers passing nearby talking on their linear amplified CB radios. Never caused any problems with the organ speakers.

Have a cousin that faked like he was deathly sick and passed on church one Sunday but got busted talking 'skip' when his voice shouting out his well known CB handle bled through the churches PA speakers. Didn't harm their speakers, either.

He caught big h-e-l-l when his highly embarrassed wife got home from church, though.

Good grief, I would have to go knock on my neighbours doors to see if they are home...and if there were ever some noise or other I would rush over to see if I could help.

Must suck to live in a city.
Just call the cops and be done with it. You've said you've already spoken to him.


60yo hanging out in the garage, good tunes on, probably a cold beer and working on his hot rod. Sounds like good therapeutic times to be had to me. Go grab a couple of cold ones and join him...maybe bring up the noise thing towards the end of the 6pack.

I'd see if my community had a decibel limit on noise during the day and if it does, get the cops involved to make him turn it down.

curious, a dB meter has to be constantly calibrated to be admissible the way I understand, like a radar gun, how would a phone ap be good? I suppose it would at least give you an idea.

Also need to read the ordinances, its usually X dB at X feet away between the hours of X and Y
New neighbor three houses away decided to play their stereo LOUD at 3 AM. Woke us up from a deep sleep. Walked over to talk to them, but they wouldn't answer the door. Called the police, but they wouldn't come by unless I was willing to sign a complaint. I was, and they came by. They were surprised the noise was down the block, and the adjacent neighbors hadn't called yet either. No more music at odd hours.

Only time I called the police on a neighbor. I gave them a chance to turn it down. Didn't want to be near the place known as a party house.

We often hear other neighbors having family get togethers and have music playing. No big deal. After 10 PM, it usually starts winding down. I don't mow my lawn at dawn because some people are still sleeping.
Had young man move across the street from me. He and his girl friend/ sparring partner would fight and he get his a$$ handed to him. She would leave and he would drink. The drunker he got the louder the music. One night Thursday I got home at 2:30am( worked 2nd shift) and I head the noise 2blocks away. Get in the house the wife and kids are still up(9and 7 yrs old). So I go over and ask him to turn it down. He did for a few minutes then loader then before. So I call the local pd and they go see him and he got mouthy and push a officer. So off to jail he go. Saturday he,s back and drunk again about midnight I go over ask him to turn it down and get told where I could go. Back come the PD and he turns it down but still loud enough to hear in my house. So Sunday morning 7:00am I couldn’t sleep so I went to the shop and opened the overhead door and started planning (18”6hp with a dust collector). About 10 minutes later here comes the Pd. They and I both knew that the noise ordinance are from 10:00 pm to 7:00am. The officer said hi to me and went over and advices him of it. Hungover very little sleep and having to listen to that planer must have been just the lesson he needed he never play his music loud after 10:00!

"We often hear other neighbors having family get togethers and have music playing. No big deal. After 10 PM, it usually starts winding down."

Most of my neighbors are Mexican and when they have a party, 2 to 3 AM is about when they start to wind down. FWIW, I do hate Marichi music. Cinco de Mayo just recently passed and it got loud. My next door neighbor usually comes by the days after and apologizes if he thinks we might be disturbed by the party noise. He's a petty good guy so I just let it slide and sleep a bit later. I've lived in this neighborhood for 40 years now so I guess maybe I've just gotten used to it.

We do have one punk that lives across the alley about 100 yards south of my house who has a very powerful sound system in his truck. He'd play it all hours of the night as loud as it could go. The cops were called multiple times and it'd be good for a few days then it would start up maybe a week later. Then, all of a sudden it stopped. He still played it but nowhere at full blast. I heard a rumor that some of his closer neighbors went and and had a serious discussion him but regardless if that's true or not, the midnight hours are hell of a lot quieter now.

I don't know just how powerful his system was but the bass was such that my wife's knick knacks would move around on the shelf and the windows vibrated.

once in a while is a lot different than everyday or weekend.
Get up early and mow the lawn. Folks like your neighbor are not early risers and will appreciate the mower nice and early.
Go to the animal shelter and ask for the loudest barker.

Rescue barker, let him out in the yard at 0500 and wake this Arschloch EVERY day of the week with your pooch.

I might believe that if you lived in a 1961 marilyn monroe edition Airstream camper in same driveway as the said punk's truck.


I have APACHE GUNSHIPS going over my home 2-4 or more times a day and overnight. Right over the treetops. Chinooks too. Also 105mm and 155mm, and hellfire missiles, a few more north of my place.

And nothing walks around on my shelves.

I got a visual of a mr Roper looking guy in boxers and black socks with calf garters...sneaking over and fiddling with the water hose; then catching a beat-down by someone's 15 year old son

What is best way to combat this? Come on Campers dig deep I know there are more warped minds than mine on here.

If there is no noise ordinance, you have no legal options, you have to ask for his cooperation. Doing anything else opens YOU up to legal consequences instead of him. You might get away with something but unless he knows why you are doing it, he may not connect it to his noise so you might not get any results. If he does know it is you, and why, he may take action, legal or otherwise, against you. So .. think carefully about what's downstream of any actions you might choose.

Now, with that said, a mailbox is a very handy place to store dead skunks.

In my rural little enclave

From sunrise to about 10pm, anything goes...music, rednecks with glasspacks, backyard gunfire, dude beatin his old lady in the front yard, tractors, chainsaws, backhoe joe with backup alarm, lawn machines, tannerite, dogs


After midnight, we still got Apache gunships, bovine orgies, coyotes, fireworks,


Dont like it move, or turn up the volume on Gunsmoke
We also got a wooden bridge with a loose plank, whenever someone drives over it, it sounds like a PAWG's asscheeks clapping together at the strip club
HO LEE shyt there's alot of pussies here ! I don't know how some of you dare to leave your house. Then again, maybe you don't.
Don't do anything that he does not know why it happened like a skunk in a mailbox...you will not get your bitch across.You said you live where it is rural and farming go get an old hit or miss engine and fire that sucker up at 7:00 AM when you leave to go shopping and let it pump away all morning...you will not hear it but he sure will not sleep in.
Try this one.....FULL BLAST!

A healthy dose of Tannerite usually gets their attention sometimes it needs to be followed up with the second blast

I might believe that if you lived in a 1961 marilyn monroe edition Airstream camper in same driveway as the said punk's truck.


I have APACHE GUNSHIPS going over my home 2-4 or more times a day and overnight. Right over the treetops. Chinooks too. Also 105mm and 155mm, and hellfire missiles, a few more north of my place.

And nothing walks around on my shelves.


Laffing


Easily done. When I turn up the tunes in my well insulated shop, the dishes vibrate in the house cupboards. My house is over 100yds away and also well insulated. All this with a cheapo system and an old guy.

Threads like this remind me why I don't post often. Bunch of whiny-azzed girls who can't handle an unruly neighbor and think their leaf blower is loud. This blanket statement obviously doesn't apply to everyone but what a bunch of p u s s i e s this society has created.

That and the rooster were my favorites.
Both times I had bad neighbors I moved. Made money on the sales and has always worked for the better in the long run. Anymore I'd just view it as an opportunity. Life's too short to deal with garbage people.

Consider playing (loudly) the Metropolitan Opera on your boom-box! Might not be his kind of music.

Barbara Streisand music non stop from 10 o'clock till dawn.

Well, did you get any complaints or visits?
Nope nary a sound out of him. Guy is too much of a democrat to realize why I had it sitting there at idle so long and spent 2 hours back dragging my driveway. But next time he starts blasting his stereo I am firing g it right up again. May take him a few times to figure it out but eventually even a democracy should get the idea.
Democrats can not learn.
My next door neighbor, an older German lady (very nice lady) likes polka, and turns on her radio when she's out working in her garden. Not my kind of music, but it's really no big deal.
