Harjeet Singh Rai (pictured) and his wife returned home to find their Sydney driveway littered with around 500 used tyres.
Delivery drivers began rolling tires at Harjeet Singh Rai’s property in western Sydney shortly before 10am on Wednesday. They then carefully stacked the tires in a delivery that lasted four hours.
The two men, wearing gloves, stacked them against the couple’s wheelie bins at the end of the driveway and against the wall of the house.
It took four hours to unload and stack the tires, causing a stir among residents.
“I told my husband, we’re in the wrong kind of business, we have to get into tires to build a house like this,” one said.
When Mr. Singh Rai arrived home that same day, he initially thought he had come to the wrong house.
Mr. Singh Rai has not yet found the rightful owner of the tires, but he would like them to come and remove them from his property so he can get the space back on his car.
“I was surprised,” he said.
A friend of Mr Rai chimed in: “First I started laughing, then we took things seriously, when you see the amount, it’s crazy.”
The delivery of so many tires to a residential house was evidently a mistake, but Mr. Singh Rai is yet to find the rightful owner.
‘Come, take this away. We’re not going to tell them anything because they’re very good, so take it with a grain of salt,” she said.
