Tenant leaving behind his stuff

Rao V.
  • Seattle, WA
Posted

Hi Guys,

In one of my rental, the tenant gave me a notice of 30 days and before we could meet and walk through the house he left the house with some of his stuff/trash. 

He is not responding to any phone/email or text. There is no way I can reach out to him other than above. I don't have his new address or know any of his friends relatives to inform him that I will be throwing his stuff and put the house for rent again.

He had some security deposit so I can use that money for clean-up but my concern is if he comes back next month ask for his stuff and push me pay him instead because I got rid of his stuff.

What are my options. What can I do to legally protect me,

Thanks
