Notice Regarding the Use of the Laundry Room

We would like to inform of a change regarding the use of the laundry room: washing and drying rugs is no longer allowed in the building’s laundry facilities. The washing machines in the laundry rooms are designed for washing clothes, linens, and towels. Using them for other purposes causes significant problems because:

  • The weight and water absorption of rugs put stress on the machines and can cause damage.
  • Wet rugs in the drying room dry slowly, take up space, cause unpleasant odors, and leaking water can damage the floors.
  • Washing rugs on the laundry room floor is neither hygienic nor safe.

For washing rugs, we recommend using dedicated rug cleaning services and places.

This change ensures that laundry services remain functional for all residents. Updated laundry room guidelines are attached to this notice and will be posted on the laundry room walls soon.

Thank you for your cooperation, and have a great start to the year!

Ystävällisin terveisin,

Holiday Season Checklist

We’d like to remind you of a few practical matters to ensure a smooth holiday season:

Cooking Fat from Christmas Ham: Reuse it in cooking, dispose of it as waste, or compost it. Do not pour fat down the drain. Once solidified, fat can be placed in the bio-waste bin.

Gift Wrapping: Dispose of gift wrap in mixed waste. Remember to flatten cardboard boxes and place them in the cardboard recycling bins.

Christmas Trees: Christmas trees will be collected next to the waste enclosure during regular waste bin emptying schedules.

Saunas: Regularly check the condition of the sauna stones in your apartment’s sauna. If they need replacing, contact maintenance to request new stones.
