Movein Information | Apartments For Rent In Madison, WI, 4 Lakes Properties

WELCOME!

We know that moving can be both an exciting and stressful time! Move-in time in August is especially busy as practically the whole of downtown Madison moves out then in over the same few days. Be prepared for slower traffic, limited parking, August heat, and long lines or crowds. (Maybe avoid Target, Walmart and any other home goods stores during this time too if you don't need anything.)

We want you to be pleased with the condition of your apartment when you arrive. As many of our apartments are "turned" in 24 period, unfortunately, we occassionally miss things. If there is something needing attention when you arrive (i.e. cleaning, painting, maintenace), please let the office know so we can work out a solution as quickly as possible. We try to answer every call that comes in, but sometimes we are on the phone with other residents or talking to them in person. If you reach our voicemail instead of a person, please leave a detailed message and we will get back to you as soon as possible!

Please contact our office if you have any additional questions or concerns. Generally, our office is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., but please call ahead for up-to-date office hours.

Thank you for choosing 4 Lakes Properties!

HELPFUL MAINTENANCE TIPS

Garbage Disposal Maintenance

To keep your garbage disposal running smoothly, please follow these easy tips:

Run ample supply of water before allowing food to enter disposal.
Turn on disposal.
Feed garbage slowly into disposal.
Once all food has cleared, keep disposal and water running for 5-10 seconds to ensure waste is cleared from drain.
Do NOT allow bones, corncobs, lettuce cores, onion skins, uncooked chicken skins, celery stalks or grease to go down the disposal.
To keep blades sharpened, periodically run ice cubes through the disposal.
To keep disposal smelling fresh, run orange or lemon peels through the disposal.
In the event of a clog, reset the disposal by pushing the red button located on the bottom of the garbage disposal.

Dishwasher Maintenance

Always run hot water in the sink before turning on the dishwasher. The first water going in the machine should be 120 degrees to thoroughly dissolve the detergent.
Use a minimum amount of soap. Too much causes etching on glassware and over-sudsing which causes leaking.
Rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Food waste can plug filters and impede water flow.

Toilet Maintenance

You are responsible for owning your own plunger.
If your toilet overflows, shut off the water supply. The shut-off valve is located directly behind the toilet. Please make sure you have a plunger.
Friendly reminder: Only flush approved products (i.e. toilet paper).

Laundry Information

Larger loads with heavy items (jeans, sweatshirts, blankets, etc.) retain more water and take longer to dry and cost you more money. Wash smaller loads, which will not retain as much water and will dry faster.
Please contact our office if the coin mechanism jams or if any of the machines are broken.
Please be advised that 4 Lakes Properties is not responsible for any theft or damages that results from using the laundry facilities.
