We're in a fairly central residential spot in Dunedin. Our home and the 7 to the left are family homes. Direct to the right 2 derelict student flats, then 4 more family homes. It's our first weekend here and these students are loud and wild as if they are possessed. They can't stop blasting music and shrieking uncontrollably, just raising all kinds of hell. I had a good time in uni myself but never acted like this, this kind of behavior is highly ridiculous even for drunken louts. Now, I've never been in this situation before so am looking for info on your own experiences with this. Are the council really useful or is noise control a lost cause? If I go the noise control route will I myself be targeted by these idiots if they think I've phoned them in. The council site says to have a word with them, but they seem to be completely retarded so not sure if that's even worth the time. I have considering finding out the owner of the flat, and contacting him every time they disturb me like this and be a thorn in his side. Open to any and all suggestions.

Don't forget you can ring noise control during the day as well as at night. Anytime the noise is demonic, really.
You could contact the flat's owner and ask them to have a word with the louts. But if the place is derelict, your chances of the landlord caring may not be good.
They may settle down in a few weeks when study kicks in.

Yeah, I thought about taking up woodworking in my garage which borders their flat. Do all my table sawing at 6am
Well, Sunday night was completely different. The entire night you could hear a pin drop outside it was so quiet. So maybe this partying is just a weekend flareup which I can mostly live with (I'm usually up to 1am on weekends anyway). But still if it gets as crazy this weekend as last I'll have noise control on speed dial.
