- Do not mix loads. Wash towels with towels, and shirts with shirts and jeans with jeans, etc. Mixing loads makes the machine become unbalanced and then the machine will stop and not drain or spin properly. Please try to keep loads with like items.
- Do not over fill washers. If you cannot see the back through the glass, you have filled it too full. An ideal load is 2/3 up the glass, NO more.
- Please do not force the doors open. This breaks the latch and then we have to order more. If the door does not open immediately, please wait for 90 seconds and the door lock should unlock. If it does not please contact the office.

PERSONAL BELONGINGS:
ALL of your personal items MUST be removed from the apartments. We are not allowing any storage in the apartments because of the remodeling. If there is any thing left in the apartments, we will charge you for abandoned property, which means your entire deposit!!! We will have the garbage people coming more often to pick up trash and we will designate a place in the lounge for DI items. We will also take them to DI for you. Please do not leave anything in the apartments!!!
