    Yes, sometimes the landlord is supposed to hold onto the tenants stuff for a period of time, even when the tenant hasn’t paid, but legally the landlord is still required to, after the tenant has vacated, but didn’t take their stuff. At least that is the rules here in Maine. I know it varies greatly from state to state. Some states are more kind to the tenant, some to the landlord, here in Maine it’s definitely beneficial to be the tenant, which is hard for my father who owns a few apartment houses and a trailer park and is often having to go through the eviction process, even after multiple chances and options. He looks at all options before he has to evict, but sometimes it’s inevitable.

      He needs to factor in all the time he spent cleaning it out & dumping the trash to get a true picture of what he actually made. His time is valuable & must be given an hourly wage amount divided into the amount he sold the items for. Of course he could get really financially technical & include any compensation earned from TH-cam. Gets pretty complicated but it would be a true financial picture of what was actually earned from cleaning out a $5.00 storage bin purchase. I for one, would find the details fascinating.$🤫💰🙃🙂💸💲

    You should try apartment cleanouts. In Missouri many landlords are just interested in re-letting their unit.
    Many choose to pay folks to perform a clean out (everything bigger than a quarter must go).
    I did this for several years...my favorite was frozen Omaha steaks, and abandoned washers and dryers.
