Why should an owners corp have to dispose of someone’s goods anyway? Now that man councils in Sydney no longer have regular council clean ups, these would lead to costs to the OC.
We had an incidence when some tenants moved out and left the most amazing array of “stuff” in the bins round the bin areas and sitting on top of the bins. I would like to advise those who want to dump their junk on common property to not leave identifiable content in their trash as these tenants did. There were documents, paperwork, books etc all with their names emblazoned on them. They left a concrete block, a brazier, and many other articles that were not suitable for residential waste bins, not to mention they had taken up most of the bins with other household goods. We contacted the agent managing the property. These people swore they did not leave anything and then sent us a letter from the mnister of their church saying they were good people.. Meantime we are left with a large amount of stuff, plus garbage bins full, a council cleanup months away, a council that fines for inappriate waste and tenants who have walked away scot free and left everyone else to clean up their mess and pay for the privilege. For me it all boils down to a lack of common sense and respect for others.
