Upon arrival at your residence, please conduct a thorough inspection of your housing as you must submit a moving-in checklist within 3 working days after your arrival.
Your roommate might have moved in before your arrival and used the common areas. If this is the case, the common areas might not be as clean as they were when your roommate moved in.
We ask both of you to keep the common areas, such as the kitchen and bathroom, clean and tidy at all times. Please do not leave any dishes unwashed. It is your responsibility, in cooperation with your roommate, to clean the kitchen, fridge, oven, and bathroom weekly.
You have received 1 key which is for the main entrance, your room and the mailbox.
When you move out the original keys noted in the signed key agreement must be returned. If you lose any keys or the returned keys are copies of the original, you must pay for lock conversion and/or key replacement (up to 6000 DKK).
When leaving your room and residence, please be aware that the doors might automatically lock behind you. If this is the case, please remember to bring your keys with you at all times.
Please note, that if you lose your key, you will be charged up to 6000 DKK to cover the expenses of lock conversion and/or key replacement.
If you lose your key, please find relevant information under the tab "In case of emergency".
The landlord is responsible for electricity, water, heat, drains and the general condition of the residence.
AU Housing is responsible for furniture and kitchen equipment.
*Please only call the landlord after 4 pm if the matter is urgent. If you call with a non-urgent matter after 4 pm, you may be required to pay a 500 DKK fee. After 10 PM you should only call the landlord in case of fire or water damage.
Lost your key? Electrical problems? Plumbing, sewer or drain problems? Broken window? Heating problems? Another emergency related to your residence?

Make sure that you are aware of and follow the house rules during your stay.
We advise you to clean your room weekly as this helps to limit damages and excessive wear.
Additionally, all tenants must participate in keeping the common areas clean and tidy. To make sure of this, common area inspection will be conducted a once a month. You will be noticed about the date of the common area inspection approx. one week ahead.
Before the inspection, please make sure to conduct a thorough cleaning of the common areas. We will provide a detailed checklist of what needs to be done. You can either work out a cleaning plan with your roommates, or you can tackle the task together.
If the cleaning is insufficient, AU Housing will order cleaning and the costs will be divided between the tenants and charged with the next month’s rent.
Why a common area inspection?
The common area inspections serve an important purpose, as they help to ensure that living conditions in the house are optimal for all tenants and that potential problems do not escalate. Given that you share kitchen and bathroom facilities with one another, it is necessary to conduct regular cleaning to maintain a hygienic environment.
Cleaning products
The landlord will provide cleaning products for some of the more challenging cleaning tasks in the kitchen and bathroom:
If you run out of these cleaning products, please contact the landlord.
You must buy other types of cleaning products yourself. Please find a guide to Danish cleaning products below.
In Denmark, sorting and recycling waste and garbage is an everyday practice. By sorting our waste properly, we can contribute towards its reuse. Materials such as glass, plastic, metal, paper and small cardboard items can be recycled and transformed into new products.
Residual waste should always be disposed of in trash bags, securely tied with a knot.
Please ensure that you are familiar with the waste sorting process. If needed, you can ask the caretaker or your dorm mates to locate the appropriate containers.
"Pant" is a Danish system for recycling cans and bottles. Each time you buy drinks in cans or bottles with a deposit mark, you pay a deposit named 'pant'.
You get your deposit back by returning empty cans and bottles using reversed vending machines in your local supermarket.
The Danish deposit mark is a series of dots under two arrows in a circle. The letter in the deposit mark indicates how much you pay and therefore, how much you will get back when returning the bottle.
The furniture and kitchen equipment in your residence is provided by AU Housing.
If any of the furniture or kitchen equipment is missing or damaged when you move in, please contact AU Housing.
The furniture and kitchen equipment must be left in the same condition and quantity as when you moved in (except for normal wear and tear). If the furniture is left with damages, you will be charged the cost of replacement or repairs.

Indoor shared facilities: kitchen, bathroom, laundry facilities
Outdoor shared facilities: garden, terrace
Your housing contract includes a single room with access to shared facilities/common areas such as a kitchen and bathroom. Please note, that the common areas are not private which means that the landlord, AU Housing staff etc. can access them if needed without notifying you in advance (similar to the conditions of a dormitory). Your room is, however, private and nobody can enter it without being explicitly allowed (unless it is a matter of fire or water damage).
*Please only call the landlord after 4 pm if the matter is urgent. If you call with a non-urgent matter after 4 pm, you may be required to pay a 500 DKK fee. After 10 PM you should only call the landlord in case of fire or water damage.
The laundry cost is an additional expense paid for with Danish coins.
Important Guidelines for Doing Laundry
Insert enough coins into the machines. If you don’t, the machine will stop mid-program and leave your clothes wet. Please note that 20 DKK is usually not enough for more than one wash.
Always complete the full washing program, including centrifugation. Ending the program early can damage the machines.
Do not dry clothes inside the house. This creates an unhealthy indoor climate for both tenants and the building. You must use the dryer or hang your clothes outdoors.
If you need further information about the laundry facilities, please contact the landlord.
*Please only call the landlord after 4 pm if the matter is urgent. If you call with a non-urgent matter after 4 pm, you may be required to pay a 500 DKK fee. After 10 PM you should only call the landlord in case of fire or water damage.
