How to get hauler to take dumpster off my property? It's actually on the street in front of my house.?

My landscaper overfilled a dumpster with concrete, I already paid him to remove the dumpster.

The hauling company says it will dump the excess concrete in my yard and put a lien on my property.

I'm afraid the landscaper is a worthless person with no means to collect from.

Update:

I found out today that the landscaper used a fake credit card.

He said he lost his credit card and gave a credit card number. By the time the dumpster company found out, it was already overfilled.

I think the hauling company failed to make sure the c/c was valid. Now it's my problem. I already paid.

    If it is on a public street, you can't move it even if it blocks your view.

    Like someone else said, your post is confusing

    It's actually on the street in front of my house.? - unless you own the street, then the dumpster is NOT on your property to start with

    My landscaper overfilled a dumpster with concrete - OK..Then the dumpster company CAN refuse to remove it, til its emptied to an approved level of fill

    I already paid him to remove the dumpster - so the landscaper hired the dumpster or you did ??

    The hauling company says it will dump the excess concrete in my yard and put a lien on my property - OK, the dumpster company CAN remove the excess so they can take it away safely, but why put a lien on your property ? That makes NO sense and its not for them to put liens on your property anyway

    I'm afraid the landscaper is a worthless person with no means to collect from - ok

    Update: I found out today that the landscaper used a fake credit card.

    He said he lost his credit card and gave a credit card number. By the time the dumpster company found out, it was already overfilled - that makes no sense. the dumpster company should have taken immediate payment for the hire of the dumpster and the payment would not have gone through and the dumpster NOT hired out

    I think the hauling company failed to make sure the c/c was valid - sounds like they didn't take immediate payment and hired the dumpster out without really taking payment

    Now it's my problem - unfortunately it is

    I already paid - paid who ??

    I think you need to pay to have the dumpster removed and then chase the landscaper for the money

    Why did you pay the landscaper to remove the dumpster? And what's a hauler got to do with it? Your posting really makes no sense at all. Why would a hauler put a lien on your property? Try writing something that makes sense.

    Rent a second dumpster. Move half the concrete from one to the other so that neither of them is overflowing. (If there's too much, then get three dumpsters or however many it takes.) Once you have the concrete arranged so that none of the dumpsters are overflowing, then have the dumpster rental company come get them.

    Give the dumpster company the landscapers phone number and information.

    Put the excess concrete in your car and then dump it somewhere.

    Estimate how much overweight the existing dumpster is. That will allow you to determine if you need 1 or more additional dumpsters. Get them delivered and transfer the necessary material to them.

    Your stuck. Pay the hauler and take the contractor to court.

    Who ordered the dumpster? That's the person you need to pursue. In the mean time unless it's a private street, you need to get rid of it ASAP otherwise the city/county will be on you.

    You pay to have the material removed and you pay the hauler whatever you owe. The fact that your landscaper is a crook is not their problem. It's your problem.

    You are free to sue the landscaper for whatever damages you incur.

    But you don't get to screw over the hauler because you're mad at the landscaper.
