Do buildings do any sort of periodic cleaning of trash chutes and trash holding areas to keep it from becoming very smelly or overridden with bacteria?

I’m in a building right now that has a trash problem, the hallway smells like trash and fragrance, and all the buildings I’ve lived in or spent time in I’ve never had a problem. There isn’t much air conditioning in the hall either, so that might be an added problem.

I don’t have a long lease here or anything, thank goodness, but it just has me wondering how buildings usually handle trash. I think if they did a massive clean it would help. I don’t even know if there is such a thing.

I was also thinking maybe the trash holding area doesn’t have some sort of door in the basement that keeps the smell from coming back up to the floors.

The smell isn’t very strong, but it is noticeable, and I would die if I owned a condo apartment here. If I had bought in the winter maybe when the smell is less of a problem I would be in a panic.

The trash room on each floor even has a door, and then the chute in a room, and it’s a problem.

I’ve lived in or visited relatives in buildings my whole life and have never encountered this.

Do you think there are city codes or regulations about it?
