Storing Property
(Hope you've all had a good Chirstmas!)
Looking for some advice for a friend (honest, not me!).
She has fallen out with her grown up son, no chance of a reconciliation. He is in his 40s, and had a lot of stuff (clothes, tools, general household junk) stored in her shed. She wants him to get all his things moved, but he is dragging his feet about it all.
I've suggested getting a Solicitor to write to him, see if that shakes him up a bit. I've said she should give him a set period of time to make arrangements to shift it all. Is there a set period she needs to give him - say 30 days? And what happens if he doesn't move it all? Can she legally dump it? Or sell it?
She's moving house soon, so needs to get his crap out of there asap!

Tell her to set light to the shed - if he doesn't want anything more to do with her, he can't very well do anything about it.
