Management of the block
Management of the block
Harbourside Management Ltd (HML) has a responsibility to ensure that the block is properly managed and maintained. The Directors of HML oversee the management of the cleaning, maintenance and waste management services for Harbourside. They also oversee any repairs that are necessary and ensure we meet our obligations for insurance and fire certification.
Dealing with faults and maintenance issues
Dealing with faults and maintenance issues
Repairs and maintenance within each apartment are normally the responsibility of owners, unless they are directly attributable to a more extensive problem with the block.
If problems arise with any of the communal facilities, including the lift, lighting, car park or access decks, please report these using the form on the Owners' and Residents' Private Area of this website to ensure they are investigated and resolved. We rely on all the residents at Harbourside to report problems. Please don’t assume that someone else has already done it.
Waste management and recycling
Waste management and recycling
Each owner has a key to the bin store located adjacent to the car park entrance. Inside there are GREEN bins for recycling and BLUE bins for disposal of general household waste. Collections alternate week by week, with blue bin collection one week, and green bin collection the following week.
Items placed in the BLUE bins will be taken to landfill. The GREEN bins are only for items that can be recycled and it is really important that all residents and guests follow the guidance on recycling. If inappropriate items are placed in the green bins they may not be emptied. See below for guidance:

Further important guidance for waste management
Further important guidance for waste management
No one likes to go to the bin store and find that the wheelie bins are already full or that the bins have been incorrectly filled. This can lead to overflowing bins and all the associated smells and unpleasantness. Some basic consideration will ensure that all residents can safely dispose of their waste:
Please do not use the wheelie bins to dispose of excessively large items of waste. Such items should be taken to the Council Civic Amenity Sites (see below)
Please ensure that cardboard boxes and other large items are flattened before putting them in the wheelie bins. The most common reason for the bins becoming full is that large empty boxes have simply been thrown into the bins
Please avoid disposing of liquids in the bins. The liquid invariably leaks and causes mess and smells.
Please do not put inappropriate items in the green bins as this may lead to the bins not being emptied. This includes glass bottles and jars which must be taken to a bottle bank.
Owners are asked to advise tenants and guests of this information and seek assurances that the requirements will be adhered to.
