Trash Compactor Help!!!
Debbie P • December 9, 2019
Help us help you when it comes to properly disposing of trash at the compactor!
We continue having issues at the compactor in front of building 301. The problem is that residents are not taking the time to compact the trash when trash is brought to the compactor. This is causing an absolute nightmare for the residents and hours of unnecessary work for the maintenance staff which takes time away from handling your service requests. We also get non-residents that are using our compactors illegally. We are prosecuting a few of them for theft of services and gathering quote to secure the area.
When you throw your trash in the compactor, you must push the buttons to compact your trash. While holding in the red button, push the green button to activate the compactor. This will start the compactor’s cycle. You will need to hold the buttons for a few moments while you watch your trash be compacted. Once a few residents do not use the compactor buttons, the trash quickly starts to back up and then the area is a free-for-all. If you forget these instructions, there is a sign located directly above the buttons.
If you have large furniture items, please walk them onto the open top container, the one on the left, as far back as you can so that the next person can do the same. If you simply place your furniture right in the front, people then leave their items on the ground in front of the dumpster. This too becomes a nightmare.
The compactor is normally picked up on Fridays, but they were unable to grab the compactor last Friday due to snow. It is now completely full and it will not be picked up until tomorrow. We are asking that you wait to dispose of your garbage until Wednesday or the area will look exactly like it did today with trash overflowing into the street.
If you absolutely need to dispose of something, please use the compactor located in front of B Building at the Gardens. You can visit our website under the About Us page if you need to see a map and find where the compactor is located.
THANK YOU!!!

Halloween will be celebrated in Nashua on Saturday, October 31st from 6pm to 8pm. If you live in one of the multi-family buildings, you cannot leave your porch light on for our little trick-or-treaters. Just print the photo below, enjoy coloring it if you wish and put it on your door to let the little ghouls and goblins know you have goodies. If your kids are a little older and they are going out on their own, please show them this post so they are not knocking on doors without this sign on it. The Courtyards and the Villas have porch lights so this only applies for the three-story, multi-family buildings. Parents please supervise your children tonight and everyone be sure to drive a little slower this evening and have a safe and fun Halloween.
