That can be tough. I know of three ways to tell if a tenant has vacated, listed in order from best to worst.
1. They surrender the keys, or submit a note saying that they have left. Not that they will be leaving, but have left.
2. They've had the utilities shut off. This is not the same as the utility companies shutting them off for non-payment, or other reasons.
3. There is nothing left in the unit to indicate that someone is living there, such as fresh food, clothing, furniture, toothpaste.
Some landlords hire a constable to document the condition of the premises, and write a report stating that he believes the premises to be abandoned.
If you think someone has vacated, you should change the locks, and collect anything left behind, and store it, in case the tenant comes back. How long you store it is your call - some landlords keep it for six months. You should write the tenants (at that address), and post a note on the door, saying "It appears you have left, so I have changed the locks. If you have not vacated, call me at this number (state your phone number here), and I will get you back in." In cases where the landlord quickly restored the tenant, I have seen judges rule that they committed no error.
