It's thin, but I can see it being brought up in court. Possibly even a defense to them trying to claim the fees.”
If we are stretching things a bit, how about she be done for depriving them of potential earnings? If the skip remained on the lawn until the bill
was paid - probably the 12th of Never, they would be one skip down, depriving them of potential earnings from using that skip for other customers.
What we don't know is whether they told her that this would be the consequence of not paying when they agreed for her to use the skip. If they don't take payment prior to hiring out the skip, perhaps it's made very clear at the start of the whole venture what the consequences of non-payment will be? We don't really know the full story.
