Most strata garden conflict comes from unclear expectations: what residents can plant, where clippings go, who trims what, and what ‘tidy’ means. The fix isn’t more rules — it’s a simple system with clear boundaries.
The 6 rules that reduce complaints
- Keep personal items out of common beds
- No dumping green waste in shared areas
- Report hazards early (trip points, broken edging)
- Don’t block paths with pots/furniture
- Respect sightlines (avoid uncontrolled hedge growth)
- Use the approved process for clippings/bulky green waste
The system that makes it stick
Consistent mowing/edging, monthly weed control, quarterly hedge/bed refresh, and a clear green waste plan.
