CHARGES FOR RUBBISH REMOVAL
Dear Owners and Residents,
Recently, the bin and recycling rooms have been getting in a very poor state with multiple items being dumped by Residents who appear to be expecting someone else to arrange for their disposal.
The bins are there for everyday household items to be disposed of in the general bins or recycled in one of the appropriate recycling bins. All other items such as beds, furniture, electricals, building rubble etc require specific collection from Hounslow Council under their Bulky Waste Collection Service.
A link to the council website can be found here:
https://www.hounslow.gov.uk/info/20002/recycling_and_rubbish/30/bulky_waste_collection_service
The current price for a private resident is £40 for up to 5 items, with any additional items charged at £8 per item.
The current cost to Regatta Point is £70 for up to 5 items, with additional items charged at £14.
Going forward, if Residents dump items that require Regatta Point to arrange for disposal, and we can identify the culprit through the use of the CCTV, then we will be charging the Owner the higher, Regatta Point, costs through the Service Charge billing. Any fees from HML will also be added. We therefore advise that, in order to avoid these higher fees, you arrange for collection yourself.
If you have made an arrangement with the Council and need to leave items in the bin rooms for collection – please inform the Caretaker beforehand so that we are aware and mark the items clearly so that other Residents are aware and the collection service can clearly identify the items.
Thank you for your co-operation.

Unhappy News
It is with great sadness that we are writing to inform you that our Caretaker, Michael Mitsinga, has resigned from his position.
Michael has been with us since August 2018 and has been very popular with residents of Regatta Point right from the start.
Michael’s is currently on holiday and will not be returning. In the Meanwhile we are providing temporary cover in the form of Andy da Silva.

BBQ on Lawns not Balconies
As the summer finally hoves in to view we would like to remind everyone that you must not use barbeques on any balcony here at Regatta Point. Not only is it inconsiderate to fellow residents but it is a genuine fire risk due to the wood of the balconies.
But we are not total party poopers, as we have instead, purchased barbeques for any residents to use (on the east lawn) that are available from the caretaker, Michael.
They are free to use but must be returned clean and all litter should be removed when you tidy up. We also ask that you do not use glass on the lawns but plastic instead in case there is a breakage since shards are difficult to locate and remove in grass.
Enjoy the Summer.
