T moved out LL furniture left to rot in garden

Hello,

My tenant has moved out. They asked me if they could get rid of the sofa that was in the front room, I said fine. I've found out that they left it in the garden to rot, and it's still there.

Now that they have moved out can I bill them for the dumping costs of getting rid of it ?

    Yep. Asking you doesn't mean you have to shoulder the cost. Council will probably take it away for £15 or so.

    Was deposit (their money) protected & has it been repaid??

    You can bill them (you can bill me...) but if they've left and deposit repaid why would they pay??
