Hi Tomasz, Welcome to the building! A few things before your move on Saturday. The elevator can be reserved for moving between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.; please book it with the front desk at least two days ahead, because two other tenants are moving that weekend. Your parking spot is number 31, on the lower level. The spot beside it belongs to the unit above you, so please don't use it even if it's empty. Garbage goes down the chute on each floor, but recycling and compost must be taken to the bins in the back lane. Collection is Tuesday morning. Finally, the water will be shut off on Monday from 10 to noon for a repair. Sorry about the timing! Best, Anita Rao, Property Manager
