Send them a bill for storage and trash removal.

That should get them in gear.


If you can't find them or that doesn't work, then start your research here:

Did you read the link I sent you?
 
Yes sir I did; but I must be legally challenged lol. Am I correct in reading that if it is less than $500, I can dispose of it at any time withot giving any notice. I just don't want to get rid of it and then they sue me for the value. I must admit that my daughters boyfriend is a real shady character so I need to make sure I am doing this 100% legal. I do appreciate the time you have taken with me on this matter. Thank you again.
 
715.109 Sale or disposition of abandoned property.--

(1) If the personal property described in the notice is not released pursuant to s. 715.108, it shall be sold at public sale by competitive bidding. However, if the landlord reasonably believes that the total resale value of the property not released is less than $500, she or he may retain such property for her or his own use or dispose of it in any manner she or he chooses.

Sounds pretty clear to me.
