A sign that says "Open used refrigerators left behind at your own risk!"

Otherwise, I don't think it's necessary.The building I rented had ancient old tiny gas stoves/ovens, and cheap white refrigerators.

To give you a complete picture, there's also many other minor issues such as: the refrigerator is freezing all of the food and the light is broken (not the bulb), the kitchen light is broken (but the fan works), the doorknob latch sticks a lot so I can't close my door (it swings open from the slant in the house if not latched).
