Interesting question posted on LinkedIn. It's a hypothetical about a corner being obstructed by 2 cord of wood and would you move it to set the corner.
I think the best response was, wait you have not looked for a corner there yet ?
I guess for me, you do what you gotta do ! I mean I never stated in a contract that limits how much brush i have to cut to do the job so why would this matter ?
I was curious what others here, that don't follow LinkedIn, might say.
Setting the corner or knowing about where to look doesn't matter. The wood pile or part of it has to go. People put brush piles on property corners all the time, sometimes many feet high. But determining which property owner is responsible, contacting them, arguing about it, waiting for them to move it and coming back hoping that it was moved property is nearly always going to be more trouble than just getting to work moving it. Happens all the time.
Depends how the pile is sitting but I would probably move it myself.

I almost see it as being helpful as a person. I did a boundary where the neighbors were fighting, they were family, and crap was all over the line we were staking. I went out with the crew and both neighbors were there and i started helping them move there stuff off the line as it was staked. When we were done the line was clear, everything moved.
Both neighbors were not happy and I laughed and said well then I got it right ! They understood and calmed down, accepting that they now had SOMETHING to rely on and someone to blame besides each other.
@g-gurneyary_g SOMETHING to rely on and someone to blame besides each other.
The classic truth, right there.
Not much of a choice, you got to move it.
Now if it's a building setting on the corner, that's a different story.
Had a case with a big stack of concrete blocks right over the corner. Moved way too many, set the corner, then put the blocks back except for where the corner was.
I like the responses to the op.
