During your stay:
Trash -
Trash day is on Tuesday. All three (3) Residential services (Garbage, Recycle and Yard Waste) are collected on the same day in. All services start at 6:00 am so all items for collection need to be curbside by 6:00 am. Each of the three (3) services are collected by a different truck and may be collected at any time after the 6:00am start time. This means that there is one (1) truck that collects nothing but the Brown Garbage cans, (1) truck that collects nothing but the Green Recycle cans and one (1) truck that collects nothing but the Yard Waste.
Extra garbage that does not fit in the brown garbage can may be placed out for collection in plastic bags set next to the can. Each bag cannot weigh more than fifty (50) pounds and be stacked neatly at the curb.
Remember to keep a three (3) foot clearance between and around each can for collection and that the wheels and handle are to face the house. Please remember to also keep at least a five (5) foot clearance from mailboxes, trees, parked cars, etc.
Pool -
Pool guy will come once a week. He won’t come in the house. He has a key to the screen door. He’ll usually be here less than an hour.
Use net on pole before swimming or anytime to remove floating debris. Use brush on pool bottom to direct sunken items to floor drain.
Pump/filter is set to run 8-12 hours per day during daylight hours.
No smoking in the house includes no smoking on or near the lanai. Ash is not fun to clean out of the pool.

We pass along what is truly a very small amount for resetting a house of this size. That is because we rely on you to clean up after yourselves. Please try to leave the house the way you found it.
Please leave unmade but do not strip the beds that you used. If sofa beds were used leave them open.
Wash and dry as many towels as you can. Pile all remaining dirty towels and washcloths in the garage by the washing machine
Set the thermostat to 75 cool and 67 heat. Do not turn it off.
Please remove any perishable items from the refrigerator. Anything that can be used by someone else, may be left for the next guest, if you are comfortable doing so.
Bag all trash and make sure it fits in the trash can outside.
Please load dishwasher and start. Make sure all dishes are clean or in the dishwasher before leaving.
Please wipe everything down and sweep to disappoint bugs and critters.
Please make sure there is nothing left outdoors (lawn furniture, toys)
