Who Pays For The New Fridge? Tennant Forgot To Pay Electric Bill.

[Max Sawyer]

I could really use some advice. I've let my step-brother stay in my rental property rent-free in exchange for him working and fixing that property. He pays for utilities. It is a great place. 

Recently, he messed up with the power company and didn't pay his bills (not on purpose, just didn't realize he hadn't set up the account correctly) and put in incorrect information that got him red flagged. He lost power and because he had no credit history (he's young and in college), they red flagged him and made him go through a whole process to get her power back. 

Fast forward a month later. He had left food in the fridge and freezer the whole time but never told me or did anything about it. 

So I help him drag the fridge outside. Explained incredibly nicely he should really have it inside by the next night. Said that if he can't get in that night, at least cover it so it can't get damaged. Reminded him the day after. Fast forward four nights later and the fridge is still not inside. It has been rained and stormed on twice. And to top it off, the door to the porch (which has AC and is indoors - I think they call it in a lanai) has been left open the entire time. 

Anyways, long story short, should I ask him to pay for a new fridge? Half a new fridge? Do I just pay it? It is a economical, normal, white fridge but was brand new. Really sucks that's now its been beaten up. Do I have him pay for the dolly it is taking to move it out of the house, the cleaning supplies, etc?

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and giving me advice. My mind is doing wheelies with the situation.
