Call the police and have them talk to the neighbor and tell him he is
trespassing.

Also call the village building department. Most towns have ordinaces
against leaving debris out, AND against leaving debris on someone else's
property. If you're having trouble with a neighbor its good to have an
objective legal record of his/her intrusive actions.

Unless they are causing damage, I recommend you just suck it up. It will
only be for a couple of days. You might approach the foreman and ask him to
have his crew do an extra-thorough job of cleaning up your property when he
is done. He will probably oblige.

If he speaks English. I had my house re-roofed last fall. Had 8
workers, have to give them credit, they worked but not a damn one
of them spoke English. I didn't like it but there wasn't much I
could do that late in the game.

why do you care as long as the job is right ?
If I'm working for someone that's hard to get along with or if they bug my
workers none of them "speak" English either
