[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Request for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring an issue to your attention that requires immediate resolution regarding the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles at the rental property located at [Your Address]. As a responsible tenant, I value maintaining a clean and hygienic living environment, which includes proper waste disposal. Unfortunately, the current situation with the absence of suitable outdoor garbage receptacles poses numerous difficulties and inconveniences. Firstly, the absence of proper garbage bins attracts pests, posing potential health hazards. The accumulation of garbage in open containers or scattered on the ground increases the likelihood of infestations, including rats, mice, insects, and stray animals. Furthermore, the lack of secure containers encourages scavenging, leading to a messy and unsightly appearance that can negatively impact the overall appeal of the property. Additionally, the absence of dedicated outdoor garbage receptacles poses challenges in adhering to local waste management guidelines. In Frisco, Texas, residents are required to utilize specific bin types for garbage and recyclable materials. Without proper receptacles, it becomes impractical for tenants to separate and dispose of waste appropriately, potentially violating waste management regulations. Considering the importance of maintaining a clean and healthy environment, I kindly request that you take prompt action to provide the following solutions: 1. Install sufficient outdoor garbage bins: It is crucial to install sturdy and pest-resistant garbage bins in accessible areas of the property. These bins should have lids to prevent animals from accessing them and promote proper waste containment. 2. Provide separate recycling bins: In compliance with Frisco's waste management policies, the inclusion of separate recycling bins will allow tenants to recycle efficiently, minimizing the impact on the environment. 3. Implement a waste management schedule: Establish a regular waste collection schedule to ensure that garbage and recyclables are promptly removed from the property, further maintaining cleanliness and preventing any potential issues associated with waste accumulation. By promptly addressing this concern and providing appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles, you will not only ensure the well-being of the tenants but also demonstrate your commitment to maintaining a desirable living environment. I kindly request a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 10 business days] to confirm that you have received and will act upon this letter. If I do not receive a satisfactory response or if the issue remains unresolved, I may seek appropriate legal remedies to safeguard my rights as a tenant. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will take the necessary steps to rectify the situation promptly and create a healthier and more comfortable living environment for all residents.
