I had a tenant who was behind in the rent. I filed with the Landlord and Tenant Board and obtained an order for eviction. The tenant has since left the unit, but some belongings are in the shed. Can I keep those or throw them out?

If you received an order of termination after a hearing at the Landlord and Tenant Board, and the tenant moved out as a result, then pursuant to S. 41 (1) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 you may keep, sell or dispose of any remaining belongings left behind by the tenant – either in the unit or anywhere on the residential complex such as the shed.
