Abandoned key lockboxes at the main entrance

Please help us to find owners of seven lock-boxes chained to railings by the main entrance. 

The boxes are the type that is often used by real estate agents to access units that are for sale or rent. However, all units in our condo (except just one) are occupied.

If one of the lock boxes is yours please let us know why you need it or just remove it.

Please note, that we will consider the lock boxes without owners as abandoned and after January 15th they will be removed.

Thank you

Recycling pizza boxes (answering your questions)

If you are wondering how to properly discard pizza boxes, here is the answer from RecycleSmartMA.org: put these items into recycling bins.

EMPTY pizza boxes can be recycled (with the exception of frozen pizza boxes). Grease is OK.

 

Remove all food, liners, and pizza savers (plastic tables) before putting the box in the recycling. Leftover pizza can be composted or put in the trash. Liners and pizza savers go in the trash.

 

Pro tip: Fold the box inside out before putting it in the recycling. This will ensure the box is completely empty so there are no surprises at the sorting facility.

 

What about grease?

Grease is OK! Paper recycling mills have assured us that it does not interfere with the paper-making process. For more information, check out this newsletter “No Matter How You Slice It.”

 

Please check the "Can I Recycle This?" page at Recyclopedia for any question you might have.

Thank you for recycling at Burns Manor Condo.

Our Fire Alarm Service company did not show up for the Inspection

Unfortunately, the A&E Fire Protection company from Canton that we hired earlier this year as a service provider did not show up for their first inspection that was scheduled weeks ahead. 
We take reliability of our vendors very seriously and are working on resolving this issue to complete our annual test as soon as possible.

We will let you know the a new fire alarm inspection date soon.
