Reply to comment by floppydisk1995 in My “luxury” apartment buildings trash compactor is next to our apartment, wakes me up all hours of the night, and the building refuses to do anything. What should I do? by CCIRMAJOR26

Thank you this was my thought about this comment too, obviously lesson learned. As someone else commented, the amount of corporate apartment bootlicking/defending on this post has been astonishing haha

I'm not sure what response you expected but I wouldn't call the response of "they can't move the compactor so your options are move or adapt" "bootlicking". Acknowledging the reality of your options and what you signed up for is hardly defending them (I'm not even sure what you think is defensive there).

Bootlicking? Weird way to describe giving you a reality check, but OK.

Well, what do you expect the company to do, bend over backward to accommodate your lack of due diligence?

There’s something to be said about the building not accounting for the noise level in the unit adjacent to the trash compactor. A lot of these newer “luxury” apartments are built with paper thin walls and noise pollution is a major concern for most people. I think it’s reasonable to expect better from companies charging luxury prices.

You’d have a point if these were the ritz Carlton residences but it’s not actually a luxury building
