Please contact the management company for Homeowner/Tenant, Emergency Contact, Bike Registration, Contractor Access, Parking, and Pet Forms.  (Please note that no dog may be brought onto the property without first receiving formal board approval.)

Unit owners/owner agents who are landlords must submit completed leases and forms, vehicle registration information, and fees for their tenants. Tenants may not submit the forms or the fees directly to the management company. Leases should include a provision that the tenant has received a copy of the Association’s rules and regulations and agrees to abide by them.

Please scroll down to access Rules and Regulations.

As part of our common area treatment contract, our new pest company, Owl Pest Prevention, has offered complimentary treatment for up to seven units per month on a first-come, first-served basis. Contact AMV to set up an appointment, if needed.  

Unit owners are responsible for any separate and/or additional treatments, and for maintaining their units in such a way that does not invite pest activity. This includes, but is not limited to, sealing off probable entry points inside their units (gaps around doors, pipes, baseboards, etc.) and keeping food, water, and refuse in containers that are inaccessible to potential rodents or pests.

Trash is picked up Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Please bag and secure household refuse before placing inside the dumpsters, and try to deposit it near the back part to fit in more trash. Bulk-pickup is on Wednesday.  Please wait until later Tuesday evening or early Wednesday morning to put out furniture/bulk items (NO APPLIANCES, RENOVATION/CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS, OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS), and do not block access to the dumpsters or recycling bins. Regular pickup cannot occur if the dumpsters or recycling bins are inaccessible.

Dumpsters and recycling bins are for residential use only. Contractors must appropriately remove their own trash and debris when renovating or repairing units. Dumpsters, recycling bins, and bulk pickup MAY NOT be used for renovation/construction-type refuse, electronics, or appliances. 

Arbors has single-stream recycling. That means that you don't have to separate accepted recycling items. Just put them all in the bins, preferably loose, or in paper bags only. Please do not put recycling items in plastic bags. Please do not throw regular trash in the recycling bins! Recycling bins located by the mailboxes are only for junk mail. Arlington County can fine us if the wrong items are placed in the recycling bins. Click on these links to see what and how to recycle, and what to throw away:

Arlington also has two designated recycling drop-off locations — at Quincy Park (N. Quincy Street and Washington Blvd) or the Arlington Trades Center (2700 S. Taylor Street).
​
Corrugated cardboard, which is the kind of cardboard that has layers to it--like moving boxes, and boxes that are sturdy, must be BROKEN DOWN FLAT. Usually, there's enough room to slide them in between the bins, once they are broken down. Better yet, cut them up to put in recycling bins, so they don't blow around the parking lots.

If you want to give items away, a Goodwill is conveniently located across the street on Glebe Rd. There are also organizations that pick up donated items.  Please avoid leaving usable items by the dumpsters to help reduce landfill waste.  http://www.charitychoices.com/whoaccepts.a

"Each resident is responsible for the proper removal of trash, debris, crating or boxes relating to that resident's move-in or move-out.”—Rules and Regulations, Section 2.10 Moving

PLEASE BE ESPECIALLY MINDFUL OF OUR CARPET, DOORS AND WALLS, AND USE THE BACK STAIRS WHEN TRANSPORTING BULK ITEMS AND CONSTRUCTION-RELATED DEBRIS AND MATERIALS.  PLEASE DO NOT BLOCK OPEN THE DOORS AS THIS CAN DAMAGE THE DOOR AND AUTOMATIC CLOSER.

-Forms for new residents may be obtained from the management company.

-Up to two bike room keys per unit are available with a deposit; building keys are available for a replacement fee.

-Entry system details are located below in Entry System section.

-Unit owners are responsible for their own mailbox keys and lock repair/replacement.

-One parking permit per unit is available for approved vehicles.  Additional resident vehicles must park on the street.  Residents may not park in visitor spots.  Visitor vehicles may park in any of the designated five short-term visitor spots at the rear of the big lot.  Visitor parking is first-come, first-served.

-Pets are limited to one cat or bird per unit.  Dogs are not automatically permitted. Any application for a single dog must first be formally approved by the Board of Directors before a dog may be brought onto the property. Submission of an application does not guarantee approval for a dog to reside or visit.  

Move-In/Move-Out Fee
Per Amendment to section 2, effective January 1, 2021:

A nonrefundable move-in/move-out fee of $200 is levied by AOA on all persons moving into the community. This fee is due from the unit owner upon signing a rental lease or upon settlement of the resale of a unit. This fee is intended to defray costs the Association assumes during resident turnover periods, such as administrative costs, and increased wear and tear on the common elements.

Email Notices
There are two ways to sign up for email notices. Owners and other residents can sign up for periodic notices via the Mailing List subscribe box and button found on our homepage:  arborsofarlington.com

Unit owners only may also sign up for notices from our property management company, AMV, using information provided on monthly mailed statements. Landlords/owner agents are responsible to inform their tenants with any relevant information. Please contact AMV for further information on this process.

Please note that on occasion certain notices may be sent by regular or certified US MAIL.

Permission is required to replace windows at the Arbors to avoid some of the common installation pitfalls and to ensure quality of materials, as well as aesthetic conformity. Following is some information about procedures to follow with the Association and technical details to pass on to your contractor. Please note that construction work, hammering, or other noise-producing activities are limited to the hours of 9am-9pm.

Permission is also required when making structural changes to a unit, and/or where common area elements (pipes, walls, etc.) and/or limited common elements may be involved.  Doors and door hardware must conform to accepted standard for resident unit doors (matched door and paint; and substantially similar gold/polished brass color and type of lock/doorknob/door knocker/peephole for exterior side.)

​Please refer to the governing documents and inquire with management for more information before beginning the planning process.
