Each state, however, has laws regarding what the landlord must do with that property after removing it. Some states require the landlord to keep belongings in storage for 30 days prior to disposing it - in this case the landlord has the right to collect the storage fees from the tenant before releasing the belongings - while other states, such as Florida, permit the landlord to dispose of the belongings as the landlord sees fit. In South Carolina, the landlord has to remove all property and place it on the curbside, where the tenant has 48 hours to retrieve them or they will be disposed of.
