When you move into your new home you will be given a Resident Move-In Checklist and a Parking Registration. Please fill these out completely and return to the office as soon as possible. The Checklist is for you to note any pre-existing damages in the apartment. By noting these, we can promptly fix these problems. The Parking Registration is used to track which buildings may be having parking problems.
Once you settle in, should a maintenance problem occur, please call the office immediately so that we may service your request as quickly as possible. As stated in your lease, it is the leaseholder’s responsibility to notify the office of any service requests that you have. Should something occur after office hours you may call the office and our answering service will be happy to direct your call.
We issue parking stickers to our residents and ask that you read the parking guidelines included in your move in package and call the office with any questions you have regarding these guidelines.
Meridian Park publishes and delivers a monthly newsletter that notifies our residents of any community events and reminders you should be aware of. It is packed with useful information that is beneficial while you stay at Meridian Park and Greenville.
Everyone is looking for a way to make his or her life easier. One way is to join our Draft program. Instead of dropping off a check every month, we draft your rent directly from your checking or savings account on the 5th of every month. If you are interested, stop by the office to fill out the draft form. For those that are not quite ready for the draft program, we have a late night drop box located in the front of the clubhouse where you can drop off your rent, keys, or letters of correspondence.
Clean air is a must so as a courtesy we will change your air filter every three months. We will give you adequate notice via our newsletter so that you will know approximately which week someone will be entering your apartment. If you have allergies, you may want to change them more frequently. The air filters can be purchased at any hardware store and the sizes for the one bedrooms are 16x20 and for the two bedrooms, 20x20.
When operating the garbage disposal in your apt. please remember
to run the warm water. This will prevent the food from jamming
the system. Please DO NOT put grease, bones, or any other hard
objects in the disposal, if you can’t chew it neither can the
disposal! There will be a $30 service charge for any maintenance
calls regarding improper use of garbage disposals. Should the
disposal give off an unpleasant odor, lemon juice or baking soda
will freshen it right up! Also make sure the disposal is clear
when running your dishwasher, this will prevent food from the
disposal entering your washer while in the process.
To increase the efficiency of your dryer and cut down on your utility bill, make sure to clean the lint filter after every load. The build up of lint will force the dryer to work harder!
To reduce the maintenance problems that may arise in your bathroom, we ask that you not flush feminine products, paper towels or cat litter down the toilet. We have a plunger available at the office should it stop up. If we are required to call a plumber to unstop a toilet that is clogged because of these products, you will be charged a $30 service fee.
