Subject: Request for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles — Urgent Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address an ongoing issue regarding the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles at the [Apartment Name/Number]. As a concerned tenant, I would like to highlight the importance of having adequate waste management facilities on the premises. Since moving here, I have observed that the current garbage disposal system is insufficient and often results in unpleasant odors, unsightly scattered trash, and even attracting pests. This situation not only compromises the cleanliness and hygiene of our community but also presents numerous health and safety risks. Having appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles is imperative to maintain a pleasant living environment and uphold the community standards. In light of this, I kindly request you to address the following concerns: 1. Installation of Sufficient Outdoor Garbage Bins: It is crucial to provide an adequate number of sturdy and secure garbage bins within the premises. These receptacles should be situated strategically, ensuring easy access and convenience for all tenants. 2. Regular Garbage Collection: Consistent garbage collection and responsible waste management practices must be implemented. It is vital to employ a qualified waste management service that will diligently collect the garbage at scheduled intervals, preventing any accumulation or overflow. 3. Proper Signage and Guidelines: Clear instructions and signage should be posted near the garbage area, informing tenants about appropriate waste disposal practices, recycling procedures, and the importance of maintaining cleanliness. This will help ensure that everyone is aware of their responsibilities and encourages compliance. 4. Recycling Facilities: In compliance with Everett's recycling norms, it would greatly benefit the community if separate recycling bins are introduced alongside regular garbage receptacles. Encouraging recycling practices promotes sustainability and reduces the overall waste burden on the environment. 5. Regular Maintenance and Upkeep: The outdoor garbage area should be regularly cleaned, disinfected, and maintained to avoid any unsanitary conditions. Additionally, any damaged or broken bins should be promptly replaced to prevent further inconvenience. I understand that as a landlord, ensuring a safe and comfortable living environment for the tenants is one of your top priorities. By addressing these concerns, you will help foster a healthier and more harmonious community for all residents. As a tenant, I kindly request a written response clarifying your course of action, including a timeline for implementing the necessary changes. In the event that you require assistance in financing these improvements, I would be more than willing to discuss potential solutions or contribute towards the cause, as it concerns the well-being of the entire community. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will take swift action to rectify the prevailing garbage disposal issue and implement the proposed improvements. I eagerly await your prompt response.
