Neighbors with junky looking blue tarps NOT helping curb appeal here

Why collect junk outside? Op aren't there garages? If not, aren't there basements? The neighbors seem kind of backward, only doing what they have to to get by. I can see why you are moving, but I hope the potential buyer doesn't feel the same way.

There are a lot of homes without basement or garages. So, it may be a make shift storage unit. If the yard is clean, there are probably more reasons why the house isn't selling like price, needs redone, poorly redone, etc.

Reading comprehension, PP. OP didn't say there was junk. She's complaining about the look of the tarps. For all we know, there could be thousands of dollars worth of nice patio furniture under there. Or a valuable cord of oak being seasoned for the fireplace. Or a fire pit or pool or whatever.

Over someone's choice of a patio furniture cover in their privately owned backyard?

You must be a nightmare neighbor.

Your housing not selling is not because of blue tarps. It is December. You will have to wait until late February for the market to start to pickup again.

No you must be a nightmare neighbor for not recognizing obvious humor and sarcasm.

Right - because the way to "protect" something "valuable" is with a $5 trap that looks awful. You're that neighbor, aren't you?!

What do you want OP? For people to uncover their furniture and firewood and expose them to the weather/elements because your trying to sell your house at a terrible time of the year? Go away.

Tarps are actually excellent at protecting things from the elements. You sound incredibly dimwitted if you think that because a tarp is inherently inexpensive it can't do the job it was designed for. Name me some products that would serve this purpose better than a tarp??

Firewood isn't junk, and is usually stored outside. Most people use their garages (if they even have them in this area) for cars, not to store patio furniture in the winter. I don't know where you live where you think that is the solution.

I can "name me" several. One of which is a newly composed shed, or any number of structures designed for holding firewood, specifically. A tarp over anything is slovenly and cheap looking, as if you are looking to spite your neighbor. Is it you?

Out of the way and with a brown or green tarp - is you must.

I wouldn't spend $1000 to build a shed to house my $200 in firewood. And you think they should build a shed to house their patio furniture as well? LMao you really are that person . I'd rather spend that money elsewhere. Don't be a fool and try to sell your house in winter I guess, hopefully lesson learned.

A tarp is a tarp. And there is no indication that it isn't out of the way. Just that OP can see it. So what exactly is out of the way? Moving it to the other side of the house for the other neighbors to see? That doesn't solve anything. The only problem here is OP's expectations when he/she lives in the backwoods where people stack firewood.
