More Info

At Reid Properties, we are committed to providing the tenants of our Queen’s student houses with a comfortable residence and access to useful information. To help educate tenants about their rights and other information about local organizations, please browse through the links we have provided below.
Insurance Coverage
Insurance is essential in rental situations. Tenants must obtain their own content & liability insurance for the space in which they live. Reid Properties insure their buildings with respect to both liability and property damage but property insurance covered by the Landlord does not cover the interior contents of the tenant’s space. Therefore, when signing a lease with Reid Properties tenants agree to arrange their own content and liability insurance. Rob Tarrick of The Globe & Mail has written an informative article regarding tenant insurance called, Off to University – Keep yourself covered.
Recycling
The City of Kingston’s dual Grey Box/Blue Box system has citizens placing fiber material (like paper and cardboard) by the curb in grey boxes one week, and plastics, bottles, and cans in blue boxes the next week. Click on this link to access your individual recycling schedule, create a calendar, and create reminders. To download (and print) a useful one-page reminder, click on this link to see what items will be accepted in the blue, grey, and green boxes.
