Each state has different laws regarding what is considered property abandonment in a rental situation, and how long you are required to hold onto the property (though it's usually about 15-20 days).
If you are unsure about claiming that a tenant has surrendered the property you can place an Abandonment Notice on the door of the property. This Notice needs to advise that the property has been deemed as abandoned and give a time say five days after which the locks will be changed if no contact is received.
Generally, a landlord should give written notice to the tenant of his/her intention to dispose of the uncollected goods. If 28 days have elapsed since the giving of the notice and the tenant has not taken delivery or given directions as to delivery, the landlord may dispose of the abandoned goods.
