Any thoughts or suggestions?


First, check your legal status:
Do you own the land that the fence is on, or do you have an easement?
If easement, look up the terms of the easement.
What are the local ordnances regarding fences.
What are the local ordnances regarding unsightly junk.
(you should have checked these things before paying for a fence).

Now that you know where you stand legally, go negotiate with
the neighbors.


This was going to be my point so I will add to the reply above by saying
that it of all the ones you have received is what I think is a prudent and
proper course of action.

Get all the facts BEFORE you choose a course of action.
