Property Bought - items still left!

Hi, just completed on house purchase in record time (< 3 weeks) on 23rd Dec. Only snag is there are still items left in the house such as bed, sofa, various items in garage etc so can't yet move in.
The people who lived there have had 6 additional days to remove. EA said they would be gone by boxing day. Shall I just take the stuff to the skip or get a skip? If I got a skip who can I charge? EA, previous owner?
any help appreciated

Put a wee ad on freecycle, it'll be gone in days. And surely you can still move in despite there being some stuff in the house!0

glasgowdan,
good ideas. Just spoke with EA - hopefully the people are gonna get their stuff out!
I want to start decorating and ripping carpets up - bit difficult when the lounge still has stuff in it.0 -
Some people!!! Would not have been so bad if they had left a note saying "sorry, we'll get this stuff out asap and here is our tel number to arrange"0

Freecycle.
Or speed the process up by saying a sum of money has also been found. 5p is 5p after all.

Why on earth are you allowing them six days? Put the items in the street when it's raining and then ring the previous owners!Declutterbug-in-progress.⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️0
