How do you clear out a rental property between tenants?

To clear out a rental property between tenants, start by taking photos to document the unit's condition. Next, deal with any abandoned belongings according to your local rules. After that, a junk removal crew can haul away whatever is left so the unit is ready to re-list.

Every day a rental sits empty is money off the books. So a fast, clean turnover is a high priority. Take photos before you clear out any items, as you’ll need that for record-keeping. Once enough time passes, you can then start cleaning.

Next, you will need to handle anything the previous tenant left behind. Since Idaho has specific rules for dealing with abandoned belongings, be sure to double-check the notice and holding requirements before throwing anything away. As soon as you are legally in the clear to empty the unit, your main goal is to get the space clean and ready to show to new renters as quickly as you can. 

That is where a junk removal crew keeps the timeline tight. The Junkluggers of Treasure Valley hauls the leftover items. That includes furniture, mattresses, and all manner of junk in one scheduled visit. The crew will carry it out so your cleaners and maintenance crew can get straight to work.

After pickup, the crew then sorts. Items with a potential second life are donated or rehomed. When that's not possible, the raw materials are recycled. Only that which cannot be rehomed or recycled is disposed of. And before any work starts, you'll have a written estimate in hand. If it looks good, then the lifting begins.
