Contractor Abandoned Job and Tools

[Donna Welschmeyer]

Have any of you here in Colorado experienced a contractor abandoning both the job and his tools? I have tried for a couple of weeks to get this contractor to get his tools out of the property we are rehabbing after he abandoned the job, but though he has agreed several times to meet us at the property, he has never made it. What are my options for getting his tools out of the way so our other contractor doesn't have to work around them and I don't have to be responsible for them?
