Eviction & Rental Property Cleanouts

Texas law sets rules for what happens to a tenant's property after an eviction, and when a landlord can remove it. We don't give legal advice, so confirm you're clear before we start.

Our landlord's guide to eviction cleanouts in Texas points to the parts of the Texas Property Code worth reading. Talk to your attorney if anything is unclear.

If there's a legal hold on any items, or you need an itemized list, tell us up front. We'll work to it.

A trash-out is the part of a cleanout that's pure garbage. Bags in the kitchen, food in the fridge, piles in the closets and junk in the yard.

We load it with everything else, so you don't need a separate crew. Then we give the floors a broom-swept finish so the unit is ready for whoever comes next.

Trash-outs can be messy, and that's fine. We bring gloves, bags and the trailer, and we don't need the place staged or bagged first.

Not every turnover follows an eviction. Sometimes a tenant just leaves a couch, a mattress and a garage full of boxes.

We clear every room and leave it ready for what's next, whether that's a cleaning crew or a listing. Tell us the date you're working to and we'll schedule around it.

We cleared a big rent house to get it ready for a rehab before it went back on the market. That kind of job often runs more than one trailer load.

Photos show the condition of the unit when you took it back and when we finished. That record helps if questions come up later.

We take them on every rental job. You get them with the invoice, so they go straight into the file.

Photos also help when you're managing a unit from far away. You can see the finished rooms without driving over to check.

You don't need to touch the tenant's things. A few details up front make the job go faster.

Yes. Managers with several doors get the same plan on every unit. That means photos for a quote, a firm price, a swept finish and pictures for the file.

Our page for property managers explains how we handle access and scheduling. For one landlord's story of a rough unit, read turning a trashed rental around.

If you have turnovers every month, we can set up a regular pickup. That way you're not calling from scratch each time.
