Final Notice for past due garbage collection charges

[Jacky Johnson]

I had a tenant who moved out almost 6 months ago. Yesterday, I received a written notice mailed to my address from his garbage collection company that he used while renting my property that he has a past due around $8. The garbage collection company said this is a final notice and I need to pay this amount within 30 days or a lien will be placed on my property. I have noticed my tenant and still waiting for his response. I know my tenant’s new address and he bought a home. What disciplinary action can I take against him if he doesn’t pay on time? Paying his past due myself is the last resort.

you have to be kidding me? Please don't tell me "its about the principal of the thing"

Pay the guys the $8 for goodnesss sake and move on. You must have better things to do. 

Tell us what happens when you take the guy to collections for $8.
