Unwanted Packages!!! Not again!!!

Michael He
Posted

Hello all landlords out here... how do you deal with non stop packages sent to your rental property for your previous tenant?  I have spoken to the previous tenant numerous times asking them to change their mailing address for all of their future packages;  I even called the local Fedex, UPS, USPS multiple to request stop delivery all packages to my rental property under that person's name, but packages are still keep on coming even now.  My current tenant are feeling bothered by those packages because they don't like the feeling of potentially they might be responsible for those packages one day, and also too many packages stacked under the porch signals people with bad intentions that this house might have been vacant, which poses potential dangers to my current tenant.  

I live in California.  The law here says it is illegal to open or trash mails/packages that don't belong to you.  I manage the property myself and I have exhausted my ways to stop those packages.  What should I do at this point?  Can anyone who lives in CA and is familiar with the law here regarding my situation help me out here?  I would really appreciate it!!!
