Thanks Jimmy, We live in a unit block of 36 units and are experiencing similar dumping of resident’s junk, particularly mattresses, right underneath the sign that says please don’t dump your junk. In the past, before our compulsory strata manager and building manager we managed this very well. We would send pictures of the dumped items to the real estate agent and ask that they withhold the bond until the tenant removes their junk. In most cases that worked.

There is no communication with the residents who continue to do this.
