Please be sure to do the following before you leave on a break for the safety of your apartment and to conserve energy during an extended absence:

  1. Take your trash and recycling to the respective dumpster,
  2. Do not leave standing water or dirty dishes in the sink, or food left out/open,
  3. Turn off all interior lights, including mini-lights, string lights, and rope lights,
  4. Remove any fans and screens from windows,
  5. Lock all windows* (for locking the windows: LEFT is LOCKED; right is unlocked).
    – To fully unlock the window, make sure both window locks are turned to the right.
    – Close both window sashes (up and bottom so the lock on each aligns)
    – Turn both locks to the LEFT. The window is now LOCKED.
  6. Lock the front door. Fully close your front door before locking it from the outside.

* For apartments located on the 1st floor, a tightly fit tension rod between the lower and upper sash can be added for extra protection

Thank you for your cooperation!

Have a fun and safe break. Happy Thanksgiving!
