State Specific Question About: ILLINOIS (IL)
Tenant kicked boyfriend out after 9 months. He is not on the lease (I knew he was living there). Boyfriend has taken all his personal items except for his bed which he he says he doesn't have time right now to pick up. (It's now been 2 weeks).
Tenant is leaving at the end of this month. What do I do with his bed so I can re-rent the apartment?

That is the girls problem,if she doesn't take it I would put it on the porch and call him if I had his number and charge her for having to deal with stuff left behind. --24.92.xx.xx |

Once your tenant gives you the keys I would discard any abandoned property and begin getting the unit ready for rent. The previous tenant is responsible for returning the property to you without damage and in good condition excluding normal wear and tear. Any costs returning the unit to rentable condition including costs that you would incur to remove abandoned property would be deducted from the security deposit. Take pictures and document your activities. I would give the existing tenant a move out document stating their responsibilities. There are some IL rules about abandoned property so I would look those up. Myself I would contact the existing tenant as part of the move-out and tell them your expectations on move-out. --74.83.xx.xxx |

Tell your tenant about the charges for disposing of anything left behind. She can contact him if she wants him to remove it. If she leaves it behind, you can probably toss it. Check your laws about abandoned property. --68.38.xxx.xxx |

As far as you are concerned it is your tenants bed. Hold on to any security deposit as long as you can and use that as leverage to have the tenant get rid of it. Follow your state laws OR you could be charged for the bed you improperly disposed of.

He was never a tenant. How could you possibly end up with his property in your rental?
I like holding back the girl's deposit unless it disappears. Since she's the only one on the lease, it is her responsibility and belongs to her. --74.222.xxx.xx |

Jim in OC has it right. It is the tenant's problem, not yours. If it is there when the tenant leaves, charge the tenant for removal and disposal, and take it out of the deposit. Even if you want to keep it, charge the tenant for removal. --174.29.xxx.x |

Tami, if your property is in Chicago, "The Chicago Ordinance" sets out rules for the city, including the requirement that you hold or store valuable property for 7 days before disposing of it. --64.134.xx.xx |

I KNOW I have old fashioned conservative Christian values, but...
What's SHE sleeping on?
Was this Rob and Laura Petry in separate beds?
Reminder her she will be charged for removal if the bed is abandoned.
OR...
deliver it to his Mom's front door.

Brad, LOL
I've never delivered left behind "valuables" to the front door.
But I did deliver a whole pile of stuff in garbage bags to the driveway once.
Right behind the car, so it would be safe. --74.222.xxx.xx |

It's amazing how fast this PITA will pick up his probably nasty bed when you tell him it is outside and he has till .......... to take it before the trash does. Remember, you are in charge, not these morons. --74.132.xx.x |

I don't care whose it is, if it's left behind I 'm charging to get rid of it.
In my moveout reminder, I tell them large items require special pickup and give them the phone number of the local trash collector. I mention there may ne a fee for this service. --66.87.xx.xxx |

Brad you are a genius.
Of course it was THEIR bed. Who moves in a boyfriend with a separate bed?
Bottom line, it doesn't matter. It's hers. --74.222.xxx.xx |
