Housekeeping

Housekeeping is responsible for the cleanliness of the common areas of the building (i.e., hallways, lounges, stairwells, etc.). Residents are responsible for the cleaning of their own rooms/suites/bathrooms. If there are concerns about cleanliness of the residence hall, please notify a Residence Life staff member.

Laundry and Vending Machines

Washers and dryers are located in the basement of each residence hall (with the exception of Goethals) and are free of charge. Any washer/dryer malfunctions should be reported directly to the company. Contact ASI at 1-800-734-8851, or visit http://servicerequest.coinmach.com/ or install the CSC Service Works Request App.

When making a call, please note:

  • Location of machine (residence hall name)
  • Machine number
  • Brief description of the problem, if known

Vending machines are also located in select locations of each residence hall on the Queens campus.

Mail Services

Each suite is issued a mailbox, which is located in the lobby of each residence hall. Mail is delivered Monday to Friday by 4:30 p.m. Packages requiring your signature and letters or packages too large to fit in your mailbox may be retrieved in the Mailroom in the ROTC Building by Gate 6:

Mailroom Hours
Monday to Thursday2:30 p.m. - 6 p.m.
Friday2:30 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Mailboxes must be checked regularly. Missing deadlines because your mailbox has not been checked or suitemates did not distribute the mail is not an appropriate excuse.

The following is a template for proper addressing of on-campus mailings:

Maintenance

The University provides maintenance and repair services in the residence halls.Maintenance Request Forms must be completed online via the Facilities Work Order Request.

After office hours, emergency maintenance problems should be referred immediately to the resident assistant on duty. Emergency maintenance problems are only those issues that affect health and safety and must be attended to immediately (i.e., stopped-up toilet and no other toilet available, jammed locks, etc.). Furniture will not be removed from student rooms.

Parking

Residents must purchase a Resident Parking Permit from Public Safety to legally park on campus ($500). Freshmen residents may not purchase parking permits on the Queens campus. Stickers are very limited and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis per published dates based on class status and none are permitted for freshmen residents. Overnight guests must obtain a temporary parking pass at the Public Safety Office and the resident host will be charged $10.

Security

Each residence hall is staffed by a desk guard or Resident Safety Monitor 24 hours a day (except Founder’s Village, Goethals, and DePaul). The desk guard is stationed in the lobby of each building and monitors and maintains the integrity of the hall security. Resident students must scan their StormCard at the desk to be permitted into the building.
