Move In Day Items

We know there is a lot going on during move-in day so below is a list of items that you have received on your move-in day.

Key Fobs- These fobs are only issued to residents and will get you into the gates and media room. If your fob’s battery stops working, please come to the office for a replacement.

Parking Stickers/Hang Tag- The sticker needs to be placed anywhere on the front windshield immediately. DO NOT place it in the tinted areas or on the dashboard. It is always important to have a parking decal on your vehicle because any car without a pass will be towed.

Guest Parking- Be sure that your guest registers their vehicle on the Pass2ParkIt app. They must be parked in the designated visitor parking spots located right in front of the leasing office or in the back by building 7. If you are renting a carport or garage, your guest may park in your space without registering. If your guests do not register their vehicle and are parked anywhere but in the designated visitor spots, they will be at risk of being towed.

Inventory and Condition Form- Please return this form within 72 hours; be as detailed as you can be. Document anything that is conditional and was there before you moved in. If you notice something that

may need to be fixed, please make a note of it on the inventory sheet and we will get maintenance in there to address it all at once.

General Information

Valet Trash - Valet trash pickup is from Sunday to Thursday starting at 8pm. Please place your trash outside of your door between the hours of 6:00pm - 8:00pm. Recycling may be placed in a blue recycling trash bag and placed on top of the valet waste bin. If you need to dispose of your trash outside of valet trash hours, there is a trash compactor located across from building 9. As a reminder all trash must be bagged (2 bags max) and placed in your valet waste bin. If any trash is left outside of the bin or before pickup hours, you will be fined. In addition, all cardboard boxes must be flattened and any trash that is NOT placed in a kitchen bag will NOT be picked up.

Key Releases - Requests to allow entry to your home MUST be submitted through the Gables Gateway Portal, through email or a handwritten note. The key releases are intended for temporary access during business hours and cannot be held overnight. To check out a key, we will need a valid driver’s license.

Community Amenities - All the community amenities are meant for your enjoyment. We do ask though that you be considerate of your neighbors while you enjoy the amenities.

Package Deliveries - Packages get dropped off at the front doors or at the mail center by the leasing office.

Pool/Hot Tub - The pool/hot tub is open 24hrs. The code to access the pool is 2-3-5 enter. For safety reasons there are no glass bottles or pets allowed in the pool area. If you have glass or a pet at the pool you will be asked to leave. Also, all children MUST be accompanied by an adult since we do not have a lifeguard on duty.

Fitness Center - The Fitness Center is open 24 hours. The code to access the fitness center is 2-3-5 enter. We ask that you please be considerate of your fellow residents and clean the equipment after use. Also, all children MUST be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Bathtub:

Some bathtubs in our community have been resurfaced. Therefore, you cannot place a bathmat in the tub. Doing so will cause the tub to peel. Upon move out, if your tub is peeling from using a bath mat you may be charged for any repairs. If you want to know if your tub has been resurfaced, please feel free to call the front office.

Air Conditioner:

Closing your window blinds during daylight hours will help keep your home cooler throughout the summer months. To maximize your Air Conditioner’s ability to cool your home during intense heat you will want to close air vents in non-essential areas. By closing the vents in the laundry room, bathrooms, closets, etc., you will channel all the cool air to the rooms that need it most.

Near your thermostat there is a light switch that supplies power to your Air Conditioner and Heater. It may be labeled as “HVAC”. Be sure this switch is in the up/on position. If your thermostat is not working at all - or if you do not understand how to operate or program your digital thermostat - call the office at 512-344-2200 and we will try to help.

Garbage Disposal:

Run a lot of COLD water while using garbage disposal. Tenants may be responsible for any damage or cost of repairing a disposal, unless due to a defect in the equipment and in the event any foreign objects have disabled the unit.

The following items should NOT be put down the garbage disposal:

1.Pasta & Rice Products.

2. Fats and greases.

3. Bones, seafood, or shells.

4. Fibrous food waste (i.e. celery, banana or potato peels, and onions).

5. Non-food waste items, chemicals, paint, or bleach.

6. Large quantities of anything should not be put down the disposal.

If your garbage disposal does not work:

1. Turn the wall switch OFF.

2. Find the red reset button on the bottom or side of the disposal tank and press it. (or)

3. Check the interior for bottle caps, coins, silverware, dishcloths, sponges, etc. & remove them.

4. If these things do not help, call for general maintenance- not emergency.

Toilet Overflow:

In the case of a clogged toilet, a resident should use a plunger first. If you do not have one, please purchase one for just in case. Tenants are liable for the cost of unstopping toilets and drains, unless due to defective plumbing. Toilet paper is the only acceptable product that should be flushed through the sewer system.

Items that are NOT allowed include: Disposable diapers, sanitary napkins, tampons, facial tissue, or cotton swabs. (You will be charged for a Plumber’s service call if any of these products are the cause of a sewer backup.)

In Case of Toilet Overflow:

1. Turn off the water to the toilet (the valve is located behind the unit and needs to be turned clockwise). Plunge the toilet. Try several times. If you plunge hard enough it will clear the line. The ball type plunger is recommended.

2. Turn the water back on to see that the water is running properly. If your toilet continuously plugs up, call for general maintenance during regular office hours unless you ONLY have ONE bathroom/toilet.

3. If water overflowed on the floor, please make sure you wipe the floor immediately to prevent leaking into the ceiling below you and/or flooring damage.
