Read About Our Strike!
We are a grassroots movement of non-union Building Superintendents and Porters, formed in response to this outrageous and unfair rat regulation in NYC that forces Building Superintendents and Porters to work past 8 PM to throw our building's trash to the curb. We now work 12 to 14-hour days, with no overtime pay, because of this Mayor.
This regulation has uprooted our lives and has caused riffs within our family member's and our close friend's lives. We are no longer able to eat dinners with them 156 nights each year because of this absentminded approach to rid the city of rats by city officials.
We are committed to getting this regulation completely overturned.
But we need your help.
SEND THIS WEBSITE TO OTHER BUILDING SUPERINTENDENTS & PORTER TODAY!
We need them, and you, to join our growing movement.
Please take a moment to read our step-by-step instructional guide.
We will get this regulation overturned!
PLEASE EMAIL US SO WE CAN UPDATE YOU ABOUT FUTURE ACTIONS & EVENTS!

Gracie Mansion Conservancy, E 88th St &, East End Ave, New York, NY 10028
WHEN: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15TH, 2024 AT 12 PM
WHERE: GRACIE MASION (WHERE MAYOR ADAMS LIVES)
TAKE THE N TRAIN TO 86TH STREET
WALK EAST UNTIL YOU REACH EAST END AVE.
You must email us NYCBuildingSupers@gmail.com
to be on our mailing list!
Our demands are crystal clear:
We demand that the take-out time (which forces us Supers & Porters to go back to work past 8 p.m. 156 nights a year be suspended immediately!
RIGHT NOW!
We demand that Jessica Tisch, Sanitation Commissioner meets with our group of leaders in a NON-ZOOM, in-person fashion.
We demand that City Council move the take-out time back to 4 PM - or 6 PM, without containers because our buildings do not have room to store 50 to 100 to 150 containers per building!
NOW IS THE TIME!!
Ask yourself this. How many more nights will it take for you to be pissed off?
Let's do this now!!!
Suspend this ridiculous regulation
until the city comes up with a better solution
that does not include
killing off your Building Superintendent
and porters!
Just follow these simple steps
STEP 1.
Sign our petition at change.org
(Click Here To Sign Our Petition)
Step 2.
Talk to the owner of your building or your board members. Tell them about the difficulties you have been having since this regulation has taken place. Inform them that you have been trying to push the city back but you need their support to do this.
Step 3.
Have your building owners or board members pledge their support for you.
Step 4.
Once you have the blessings of your building owners or board members, start talking to your residents about how this rat regulation has disrupted your life. Then ask your residents to sign our petition.

Step 5.
Download our flyer (HERE) in support of our strike and rally, then tape this flyer to at least 3 of your garbage bags on garbage nights! Post one flyer facing up the block (where people can see it) the other flyer facing down the block, and a middle flyer, in between all of your trash bags, for everyone to read, and then to scan the QR code as they walk by. This QR code will take them to our website, NYCBuildingSuperS.com
STEP 6.
Every superintendent & Porter should print out 50 flyers per month and then hand them out all over their neighborhood leading up to their elections on November 7th.
Don't be shy!
The harder we work, the sooner we will have our lives back folks!
Step 7.
Call and email your City Council Member using the City Council Member Finder Below. Remember they are not taking responsibility for this regulation and have been blaming the Department of Sanitation for this debacle - Don't buy it! We elected them into office, not DSNY!
Here's the link:

Step 8.

Step 9.
(OPTIONAL)
Consider downloading the address label template below that has all of our City Council member's addresses on it and send them each a copy of the letter or email you had written to them. I've been sending each of our council members a letter every month along with copies of my articles
since April of this year.
(Link to labels will be added Later)
Adjust as you go...
None of this is set in stone.
But remember this: Fighting for your rights WILL get messy. And ultimately this will be up to you. So you'll need to ask yourself, eventually - Will I be able to roll up my sleeves and get dirty?
That choice belongs to you.
