Seeking Clarification of Eviction Waste Guidelines - Tenant Belongings Still Present

[Quincy Amekuedi]

I wanted to get some legal interpretation and given it's the weekend, I'm asking here in case my attorney doesn't respond until Monday.

From Cleveland's Eviction Waste Flyer: "After 5pm the day of the move out, the landlord must remove the items from the tree line, or be subject to a ticket from the City of Cleveland for excessive waste on the tree lawn..."

A bailiff set out was performed on a tenant at one of my properties on Wednesday. It's almost 72 hours later and most of their belongings are still on the tree lawn. I already gave two extra days for them to get their belongings at the risk of being fined. I'm ready to dispose of it to the dump, but the flyer doesn't say 'where' I can and can't take the items. I do not intend to pay for storage and I want to make sure I'm not liable or at risk of being sued if anything they deem valuable is trashed. They have not responded to our last messages to them and we can only assume they do not want or cannot afford to move these items.

Whether I haul it to the waste center or people come by and take what they want, am I now clear of any responsibilities for the tenant's property?
