For trash disposal, please ensure you wrap your garbage and take it to the designated bin on each floor, typically located in the rear stairwell. This helps maintain a clean and organized living environment. It’s important to dispose of waste and trash regularly, as the building’s management team empties the bins daily. Please limit your disposal to one bag of trash per day. Please be aware that the building’s bin cannot accommodate large items such as mattresses and furniture. If you need assistance with disposing of a significant amount of trash or bulky items, the building cleaner may charge an additional fee.
垃圾处理:请确保将垃圾包好,然后带到每层楼的指定垃圾桶,通常位于后楼梯间。这有助于保持干净整洁的居住环境。请定期清理垃圾和废物,因为楼宇管理团队每天清空垃圾桶。请每天只丢弃一袋垃圾。请注意,楼宇垃圾桶无法处理大件物品,如床垫和家具。如果您需要处理大量垃圾或大件物品,楼宇清洁工可能会额外收费。 或者可以将大型垃圾弃置于附近的垃圾站。 如果不知道垃圾桶在哪里请立即跟我们联系。

Suggest to copy one more bedroom key and keep the bedroom key in the work or study place in case of locking the bedroom key inside the bedroom, because there is a charge of HKD 500 for the locksmith to unlock a locked bedroom door urgently. You can just simply take the bedroom key to any locksmith to copy the bedroom key, the copy fees will be roughly HKD 5-50 depends on the type of the key.
建議多複印一把臥室鑰匙,並將臥室鑰匙放在工作或學習的地方,以防臥室鑰匙鎖在臥室內,因為鎖匠緊急開鎖臥室門需要支付500港元的費用。 您只需將臥室鑰匙帶到任何鎖匠那裡複製臥室鑰匙即可,複製費用約為5-50港元,具體取決於鑰匙的類型。
