Subject: Request for Outdoor Garbage Receptacles — Urgent Attention Required [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring a matter of utmost importance to your attention regarding the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles in our rental property located at [rental property address]. As their absence has begun to cause inconvenience and potential health hazards for the tenants, I kindly request your prompt resolution of this matter. Since relocating to San Diego, I have greatly appreciated the serene living environment offered by this rental property. However, the lack of outdoor garbage receptacles is proving to be a significant issue. Currently, tenants are left with no choice but to place their trash bags outside their units, leading to unsightly conditions and attracting pests. This situation negatively impacts the overall living experience for all residents and does not align with our expectations as tenants. Based on the terms of our lease agreement and the sanitary standards that should be upheld, I believe it is your responsibility as a landlord to provide suitable outdoor garbage receptacles for the tenants' usage. By doing so, you would not only demonstrate your commitment to maintaining our property's cleanliness but also abide by local health and safety regulations. In light of the situation, I am hereby requesting the following actions be taken as soon as possible: 1. Installation of sufficient outdoor garbage receptacles: This includes sturdy bins with secure lids to prevent spillage and deter pests. The number of receptacles should be adequate to accommodate the number of units within the property to avoid overfilled containers and unsightly conditions. 2. Placement in a convenient location: The outdoor garbage receptacles should be strategically located within the property for easy access, while also considering appropriate distances from residential units to minimize odors. 3. Regular waste collection schedule: Ensure that a consistent and reliable waste management service provider is employed to empty the outdoor garbage receptacles on a frequent basis. This will prevent overflow and maintain hygiene standards for the benefit of all occupants. I kindly request written confirmation from you regarding the imminent action plan to address this issue. In the absence of a satisfactory resolution within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days], I reserve the right to take further action, which may include contacting the appropriate local authorities or seeking legal remedies to ensure compliance with my rights as a tenant. Thank you for promptly acknowledging and addressing this matter to ensure our living conditions are improved. I trust your commitment to maintaining our property's cleanliness and enhancing our overall living experience. I look forward to your prompt response and the resolution of this matter.
