When I was a landlord and had to evict people, I hired a guy who got a crew of day laborers to actually move everything out.

If you evict people legally - at least in my state - you have to schedule a 2 hour window with the police and they are present supervising during the entire process.

Also, the eviction process required at least 5 people to be present to actual clean the unit out depending on the size of the house/apartment.

I don't understand why folks are downvoting this comment. It's valid and important information about the legal process of eviction.
I don’t either. No one is commenting that any thing I’ve posted is factually incorrect.

The company is doing nothing differently except putting hiring day laborers online. Home Depot wasn’t liable when the guy I hired picked up a crew from the parking lot. We waited for someone from the police department to show up - as legally required - and started the cleanup process.

It is up to the landlord to follow the law.
