Subject: Request for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter that requires immediate attention for the betterment of our living conditions at [Apartment Complex/Property's Name] in Huntsville, Alabama. Firstly, I would like to express my appreciation for your prompt responses to previous concerns raised by both myself and fellow tenants. However, I have noticed that the current lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles has become a significant issue within our community. As such, I am kindly requesting that you address this matter and provide appropriate garbage disposal solutions in accordance with the guidelines outlined by the state and local regulations. The absence of suitable outdoor garbage receptacles has led to several problems: 1. Unsanitary Conditions: Without designated bins or containers, waste tends to accumulate in the open areas around the property. This not only presents a health hazard due to disease-carrying pests but is also highly unappealing to us and any potential visitors we may have. 2. Aesthetics: The sight of scattered garbage bags and debris is damaging to the overall appearance of our community. This creates a negative impression and diminishes the value of living in our apartment complex. 3. Inconvenience: In the absence of proper garbage disposal solutions, tenants are often left with no choice but to store waste inside their apartments or vehicles for extended periods. This poses inconvenience, discomfort, and may even result in foul odors permeating our living spaces. To rectify these issues, I kindly request that you consider implementing the following solutions: 1. Outdoor Garbage Bins: Install sturdy and appropriately-sized garbage bins throughout the premises near high-traffic areas, such as near the entrance, community areas, and parking lots. These bins should be equipped with lids to prevent scavenging by animals and minimize odors. 2. Recycling Containers: In compliance with environmental initiatives, it would be greatly appreciated if you could also provide separate recycling containers alongside the regular garbage bins. This will encourage tenants to properly recycle and reduce our collective environmental footprint. 3. Regular Garbage Collection: Ensure that a reliable and frequent garbage collection service is engaged to maintain cleanliness and prevent overflow of waste in the outdoor receptacles. Regular collection schedule should be communicated to all tenants for reference. I believe that by addressing this issue promptly, we can greatly enhance the overall livability and appeal of our community. Moreover, it would demonstrate your commitment to providing us with a comfortable and hygienic living environment. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I kindly request that you respond in writing within 14 days, acknowledging my concerns and providing a concrete plan of action to address the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles. Your timely response and commitment to rectifying this problem will be greatly appreciated by all residents. I look forward to a positive resolution that will improve our living conditions in the future. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number]
