What are the rules for using bin stores responsibly?

At Enclave, bin stores are shared by all residents, so there are clear rules to ensure they stay safe, clean, and easy to use.

Key rules

• Bag waste securely: Always tie up household rubbish before placing it in bins to prevent leaks and pests.

• Use the correct bins: Follow signage to separate general waste, recycling, and food waste (if available).

• No dumping: Large items like furniture, appliances, or mattresses must never be left in or near the bin stores.

• Keep it tidy: Do not leave bags on the floor or stacked outside bins — if bins are full, notify the on-site team.

• Close lids: Always shut bin lids properly to avoid smells and pests.

Why it matters

• Prevents pest problems and bad odours.

• Keeps collection services running smoothly.

• Avoids additional charges being passed onto residents for misuse.

Helpful tip

Think of the bin store as a shared kitchen — leaving it clean and orderly benefits everyone.
