If the property is yours, and not a public right of way (that is, no-one has a right to pass over it, either on foot or by vehicle) then you can do whatever you like, including buying a lockable chain and chaining off the land.
If you want to, you can put up a sign that says illegally parked vehicles will be towed, then get a towing service to tow him away!
It's entirely up to you. Or you could just tell him it is your land and he can't park there.

If its public area you cant. But if its your property put up a sign saying that there is no parking on private property without a permit, towed at owners expense. Next time he/she parks there. Tow the damn car away. It will cost them maybe 100 bucks.
Clearly its not the best way to make friends. I cant imagine why they keep parking there when you have told them not too. Try and be more diplomatic if you can, but tell them this is what im doing. There is the sign. You park there again my next call is to tow it away. Here is my property line and you are on it. If they do, you have to call your bluff. But this will stop it.

If it is a public road there is nothing that you can do. If it is an apartment and a spot assigned to you complain to the management, if it is your property have it towed. If none of the above, (and I am lost as to what else there could be) get two cars, take a day off park one in front of him and one in back approximately 3 inches from the bumpers, and wait till he complains because he cannot get out.

I agree with Mary, be polite, you may be living next door to these people for a long time. Inform them that you intend to utilize the land and that you don't want anything to damage their car, nor interfere with your plans. Yes, it is insensitive on their part to park on your land, but many times people figure if no one is saying any thing then it's probably ok. If all else fails then you can resort to towing (The LAST Resort)

I agree with Bryan completely. But, they are your neighbors.
I would write them a very nice letter, explaining that you would kindly prefer if they did not park in the space.
That way, you asked them nicely.
If they do it again, send them another letter, then tell them nicely that you have to really insist on it, and if they park in it again, you'll be having the vehicle towed at their expense.
It's private property, not for public use...you don't need to give them notice to tow.
PS...funny thing..I came home from vacation to find my garage blocked with a U-haul backed in my driveway...right up to the garage door...I figured it was one of my neighbors leaving it there temporarily...but it wasn't...I called to have it towed. Never did find out what happened with it :)

Ask them nicely to stop parking there. Move on to other drastic measures if they do not comply (put up a sign, cones, tow 'em, etc.)

Tell your neighbor and if they don't listen to you get it towed. It's "technically" on your property.
