Who Is Responsible For The Damages To My Driveway?

Hi all! I need some legal advice and would appreciate any input on my situation. I live in Michigan.

The house next door was recently purchased and remodeled by a house flipper. Last month, they rented a large dumpster from the local waste company. However, when the dumpster was delivered, it was mistakenly placed in my driveway instead of my neighbor’s. I came home from work to find a massive dumpster sitting in my driveway, completely unexpected. I had to call the waste company to complain and get it removed. Eventually, they came back and relocated it to the correct driveway. Our addresses on our homes are very clearly labeled, so the mistake could've easily been prevented.

Here's where the real problem begins. When they dropped the dumpster in my driveway, it caused significant damage to my concrete—very noticeable cracks and shattered areas exactly where the dumpster had been placed. I have security camera footage showing both the drop-off and pickup of the dumpster, and I sent the company those clips along with photos of the damage.

Their response? They claim they are "not liable for the damage claimed to neighboring properties" and that the neighbor should cover the repairs. But there's a big problem—the house flipper already sold the property, and I have no way to contact him since I never met him.

I feel like I have a solid legal case here. Should I stand my ground and demand they pay for the repairs, potentially taking legal action if they refuse? Thanks so much!
