How to Deal with Someone Blocking Your Shop Entrance with Their Car
2 Answers
You can first negotiate with the car owner to have them move their vehicle to create space, or seek assistance from management personnel to locate the owner and discuss moving the car. If the owner refuses to move the car and adopts an uncooperative attitude, you can call the police to enforce the removal of the vehicle.
The other day I was running a small shop, and people kept parking haphazardly in front of the entrance, blocking the way and affecting my business as customers couldn't get in. I tried a few times to find the car owners—calling the phone numbers left in the cars or asking nearby shops if they recognized the vehicles. Once, after waiting too long, I called a towing service. Although it cost me some money, it solved the problem. Now, I've installed a 'No Parking' sign and trained my staff to stay calm in such situations—safety first, no conflicts, and calling the police if necessary. A neighbor complained about similar issues and shared that communication and prevention are key, as blocking the way isn't just annoying but could also be dangerous.
