    I live in an apartment that is three storie with breezeways running through. I live in the 3rd story and a neighbor below me, on the opposite side of the breezeway leaves their trashcan outside their front door. I usually go down the staircase on my side and when I pass the second level I get that faint trash smell. When I go down the other staircase I straight up have to hold my breath until I get all the way down. There was even a dirty diaper in there one day!!

    So what should I do?

    Ask the management to speak with them. Depending on your management, this is probably a minor lease violation and they can mention to the tenants that trash on the breezeway isn't cool.

    Why do people insist on going above people for results. Write a small letter letting them know its a minor issue and tape it to their door. Nuff said. I'm sure they'll accomodate, if they don't then to the apartment staff.

    well my first instinct is to go with option c, then a, then d, then b

    I'm with taping a polite note to the door asking them to please not leave their trash in the breezeway as it doesn't smell very good and could potentially invite unwanted guests! (mice, roaches, ants)

    At my apartments (which I'm moving out of this month...yea!) it's a lease violation to leave trash on your porch, although I AM guilty of doing this from time to time, especially if it's dark out and I don't want to walk to the dumpster by myself. My nextdoor neighbor and I had this little unwritten thing where if I was leaving my apartment, and he had a bag of trash by his door, I'd take it to the dumpster and he'd do the same for me. If there was a dirty diaper in the trash, then there could be a single mom living there who can't always run the trash down when it needs to go...leaving her baby alone might be an issue. But I'd be more tolerant of it if I knew that was the case as opposed to someone being just downright lazy and not wanting to trot their ass down the stairs and out to the dumpster.

    Edited to add: I just reread your post and saw the part where they keep the can outside...as in all the time! I thought maybe they just put a trashbag out now and then...that's different! Yeah, they need to keep it inside.

    yeah, the trash can is out there all day everyday. It's really their next door neighbor who I feel bad for. Everytime they walk out their front door there is that smelly trashcan. I think I'll just get really drunk tonight and go kick it over.

    Then going with Summers idea is probably your best bet.

    Next time you have to take the trash out, leave it in front of their door, and if someone says something, tell them that you were under the mistaken impression that it was a community drop-off point and that the tennants in that apt. would take it out the rest of the way to the dumpster.
