When a tenant leaves things behind the cost varies widely, take photos and pay yourself what your court allows, here 25bux hourly is fair but not to the owner - cousin-niece-nephew is allowable so make this a family affair if your court requires.

Carpet cleaning should be done with a truck powerful professional system, they give a receipt and results but if you have stink it will likely be the padding or soaked into the actual flooring, use a black lite to identify the problem areas, cut out some samples and leave them in a bag with your phone number so when someone opens it after court or a sec8 office discussion they know what it is like in the unit you were talking about. --68.76.xxx.xxx
