I am writing to address a concerning issue regarding the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles here at [address of the property you are renting]. As a tenant, it is crucial to have the necessary resources to maintain a clean and safe living environment, and the absence of adequate garbage disposal facilities is becoming a growing concern. I understand that as a landlord, it is your responsibility to provide suitable accommodations for tenants. However, the current lack of outdoor garbage receptacles poses several issues, including: 1.

It is in our collective interest to maintain a clean and attractive living environment. 3. Compliance with Local Regulations: Providing appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles is not only a matter of tenant convenience but also a legal requirement as per the local health and sanitation regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in penalties or fines. Considering the aforementioned concerns, I kindly request that you take immediate action to provide suitable outdoor garbage receptacles for the tenants of [address of the property you are renting]. This can be in the form of large, sturdy bins or containers strategically placed around the property for easy disposal. Additionally, it would be greatly appreciated if regular garbage collection services can be arranged to prevent overflow and maintain cleanliness. I want to emphasize that addressing this issue promptly will contribute to a harmonious tenant-landlord relationship and overall tenant satisfaction. Together, we can ensure the well-being and enjoyment of all residents within the property. I kindly request that you provide a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] to inform me of the actions you will take to rectify this situation. If appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles are not provided within a reasonable time frame, I may need to explore alternative solutions to resolve this matter. Thank you for your prompt attention to this important matter. I trust that you will recognize the significance of this request and take the necessary steps to rectify the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles promptly. Sincerely, [Your Name]
