Garbage Room

Garbage Room

Question:

All the residents in our apartment block are Jewish. We have a room in the bottom for the garbage bins. Does it need a mezuzah?

Answer:

The room does not serve a dignified purpose and is therefore exempt.[1]

[1] Kuntres HaMezuzah 286:103; Sha’arei HaMezuzah 2:11.
