Help! Can I charge for storage of stuff left?

12:03 AM, 22nd August 2023, 3 years ago 5

Hello, when our tenant stormed out following bailiffs eviction, he left everything behind. Stuff on the walls and floors and items in cupboards! Our agent served Abandonment Notice on the same day, giving 21 days before we dispose of items.

As I can’t start refurbishment yet, I am losing time and money, again! Can I claim any money for these 21 days of storage?

A daily charge perhaps? (Our eviction judge awarded me £30 a day rent for any day thereafter)

Does anyone have experience of this please?
