Subject: Urgent Request for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles in Overland Park, Kansas Rental Property Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a crucial matter that requires immediate attention in our rental property located at [Property Address] in Overland Park, Kansas. As a responsible tenant, I believe in maintaining a clean and safe living environment for myself and my fellow residents. However, our current situation concerning the outdoor garbage disposal system has become increasingly problematic. I kindly request that you address this issue promptly by providing the necessary proper outdoor garbage receptacles. Here are several compelling reasons why this situation demands urgent action: 1. Health and Sanitation Concerns: The lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles poses a significant health hazard for all residents. The absence of secure and adequate bins invites rodents, pests, and insects to invade the area, which not only compromises our health but also creates an unsightly and unsanitary living environment. 2. Aesthetics and Curb Appeal: The presence of overflowing or improperly stored garbage diminishes the overall appeal of our rental property. Ensuring proper outdoor garbage receptacles will help maintain a neat and presentable appearance, both for current residents and potential future tenants. 3.

By providing appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles, we align ourselves with the local community's standards and promote a responsible living environment. I understand that every rental property has unique requirements, and various types of outdoor garbage receptacles may be suitable for our premises. Therefore, I would like to outline a few options for your consideration: 1. Steel Trash Cans with Lids: These durable and secure cans provide excellent protection against animals or inclement weather. They are easy to maintain, resistant to damage, and help contain odor effectively. 2. Heavy-Duty Plastic Bins: These bins are lightweight, cost-effective, and come in various sizes. They offer reliable storage options, ensuring that garbage is sealed correctly and preventing any spills or leaks. 3. Enclosed Dumpster: For multi-unit complexes or properties with higher garbage volume, an enclosed dumpster system could be ideal. These larger containers accommodate larger amounts of waste and provide additional security and convenience, preventing garbage overflow and discouraging unauthorized dumping. Please assess the requirements of our property and choose the most suitable option(s). I kindly request you to arrange for the installation of the selected outdoor garbage receptacles within [provide a reasonable deadline] to address this ongoing concern promptly. Moreover, I would appreciate regular waste collection services to ensure the bins are emptied on a consistent basis to maintain cleanliness throughout the property. I believe that by rectifying this issue swiftly, we will not only enhance the quality of life for all residents but also contribute to the overall upkeep and reputation of our rental property. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I expect a positive response from you within [provide a reasonable timeframe] to ensure that appropriate action is taken accordingly.
