So, we live in a rented townhouse, on the end of a building of 4 of them. We got new neighbors this August, and have had minor issues with them for a while. They're very noisy at night, sometimes till 4 in the morning(this has gotten a bit better since we spoke to them about it). They let their dog go on our side of the yard and don't pick it up always. They tend to leave trash around.
We just got snow, and we were out of town when it fell, so our parking area was covered when we got home. We parked on the snow, and my H shoveled in front of and behind the car. When we next went out we pulled forward so we could shovel under our normal spot and hadn't moved the car yet.
The neighbors have 2 huge trucks and they normally park one in front and the other behind their unit. Today, they parked the second truck in front, over the spot my H shoveled, right in front of the steps that lead to our door (each unit has their own steps). This blocks where we normally park.
I really want to be able to park where we normally do, even though we have a bit more room, especially since we're having a lot of guests coming soon. Also, our car is a small Civic, and can't handle parking in the back as well as their huge trucks, because it's not paved.
Am I being petty? Should we say something? Leave a note?
TLDR: Neighbors parked their car in the spot we shoveled for our car.
