Put on your thinking caps and review the pic below. do you like the view from my dining room?I asked my neighbor to clean up his mess. He said he would. That wastwo years ago.I called code compliance once. That made him mad. Hate to go thruthat again.I hung a neighborhood clean up reminder on his door. He must haveoverlooked it.I don't have a truck to haul it away. Hate to pay someone every monthto come around again.Only things left are murder and landscaping.Any thoughts on some type of screen to block this off? A trellis withsome type of evergreen that would grow thick and fast and last thruthe winter?It's limited space, about five feet, so I think a typical holly wouldbe way too big.Zone 7, full sun.Pokey.

To be perfectly honest, with the amount of space you have, a picketfence would be your best bet. If that is too expensive for you, thebox stores sell bamboo screens and those cost about 20 dollars for 16feet, 6 feet tall. You'd still need to put in stakes.You can call around for pricing on putting in a fence for the lengthof the heaps of crap. It may not be as expensive as you think andyou'll gain privacy and peace of mind.
