Your tenant left everything behind: a landlord's options
By Junk Pros GTA1 min read
A tenant left the unit full and the new one takes possession in days. Here's how to handle it, cleanly and documented.
An abandoned unit full of a former tenant's belongings is a landlord's headache with a deadline attached. There are legal steps around abandoned property, and the practical side is getting it empty, clean, and documented before the next tenant.
Know the rules on abandoned property
Ontario has obligations around belongings left behind, so don't just dump everything. Document the unit's contents with photos before removal, and set aside anything that looks valuable or personal.
Clear and document
We photograph the unit before and after, remove everything, and leave it broom-clean and ready to re-let. Photo documentation is useful for your file and for any deposit dispute.
