A British man recently upset his neighbours somewhat after converting a 12.2m-long refrigerated truck into a mobile home.

Although the man is delighted with his new vehicle, his neighbours are somewhat less enchanted and described it as a massive eyesore.

From toilet roll and toxic waste to wine and washing up liquid for dishes, clean-up crews sometimes must tread lightly as they go about their business. They
