Housekeeping Tips
General Cleaning: Tenants are responsible for keeping their homes clean. Routine cleaning helps provide a healthy environment for you and your family. Clean high-use areas, including kitchen countertops and sinks, daily. Clean floors and bathrooms weekly. Dust fan blades, wipe cabinets, and complete similar tasks monthly. Your Housing Manager and Inspector will assess your home's cleanliness during routine inspections.
Bugs and Pests: Help prevent cockroaches, ants, ticks, fleas, and other pests by following these steps:
- Keep your apartment clean.
- Bag all trash, place it in the trash bin, and empty and clean the bin regularly.
- Store food in sealed containers or bags inside cabinets.
- Do not store, prepare, or eat food in bedrooms.
- Keep doors closed and repair any holes in window screens.
- Report bug or pest problems to your Housing Manager.
Trash: Keep your apartment and yard free of trash by following these guidelines:
- Keep the provided trash bin outside your home.
- Bag all household trash and empty indoor bins into the outside bin regularly.
- Place the bin at the street on collection day and return it to your apartment afterward.
- Keep the lid closed and wash the bin after each collection to help prevent flies and maggots.
Housekeeping Inspections: Residents who fail an inspection will receive a report listing the items that must be corrected. Housing management staff will reinspect the home within 10 calendar days. Failure to correct the listed housekeeping issues may result in termination of the lease.
May your Thanksgiving bring delicious food, joyful laughter, and treasured memories to last a lifetime. Warmest wishes from the Commissioners, Jaime Steen, and staff.
