my landlord is a bitch!

Recommended Posts

I gotta say that I am with your landlord here. No one wants to smell your garbage. There are a lot of people who really wouldn't worry about it, but some people really care about the appearance of their home. You live near other people, and should take into consideration that it is their home, also. Just leave your garbae inside your apartment or walk it all the way to the dumpster. It seems like a reasonable request to me.

Has she asked before, even if informally? Is it posted somewhere (even obscure) where you live?
Regardless, she's within her rights to ask that. Yes, it's less convenient, but you're within your rights to move, too.
She may just have been burned once too often by other tenants who paid lip service to requests and never did anything.
Anyway, you could always get a cute little kitty-shaped laundry hamper (better ventilation), and call it "kitty litter.":)

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

We're not allowed to leave it outside my complex either. Besides what Fallingwoman wrote, there's also the issue of animals possibly getting into it and spewing the trash all over the place. Have some consideration for everyone else. It's YOUR trash, if you don't want to walk it to the dumpster right away, keep it inside.

because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon

Uh is it in your lease when and where you have to deal with the garbage??

damn girls go easy on me. btw, there r other issues between me and her that r unrelated to my being her tenant that cost me a little money. it has made our relationship a little tenuous to say the least. also, there was another tenant who did the same thing i did at the same time and he didn't receive his threat!

Yea, I have to agree w/ FallinWomen, if I were your neighbor, I wouldn't want to look at your trash. If you live in an apartment complex, everything inside is your terrritory, everything outside is SHARED territory and should be kept clean.

I don't gather my trash until I'm about ready to leave, and then I just take it out on my way out to the garbage can.

Dude don't give the lady any grief, I'm a landlord and sometimes we have to bitch about stuff like this, Other tenants might be complaining, Rats and other critters will no doubt find it, Maybe they where warned by a code enforcer prior to this, Fire and tripping hazards make insurance adjusters raise rates, I can go on and on. Sucks but ya gotta do what ya gotta do.


------Have a good one!--------
