What if you accidentally made a mess

What if you washed your clothes and when removing them from a washer you noticed there was a napkin inside and now it is spread into pieces and paper fibers all over the place in the laundry and at the elevator lobby?

Or, what if you spilled a coffee or a sugary drink on a carpet or in the elevator?

Or, what if you had contractors or movers delivering to your unit furniture or materials and they left behind dust and debris in our garage, elevator and carpets?

New tenants might not know that but in our condo we have a simple rule for these situations - clean up after yourself and leave common areas in the same condition as they before mess happened.
Just grab your cleaning supplies and a vacuum and tidy things up as you would do at home.

If a mess is big or too hard to clean up (like with spilled oil on garage floor or a full milk shake on a carpet) do not just walk away from the problem. Mark the spot with a cardboard or piece of paper or with a road cone (we have spares in the garage) so residents would be aware of the issue and would not step into it. This would stop the problem form spreading around and making the situation worse than it should be.

You can reach out to me if you my suggestion on specific cleaning supplies or cleaning techniques and we will figure something out.
The best way to contact would be by leaving me a note at my door or emailing me. I will get back to you the same day and when I am available.

Thank you
Alex
