    Hey guys does anyone know the policy on the previous owners leaving a ton of rubbish and we want them to collect it but aren’t sure if this is okay? 
    This happened to my sister - if it's not listed on Fixtures and Fittings then they were required to remove it before handing over the keys. Talk to your solicitor and they should be able to arrange removal at the seller's expense.
    Fab thank you! They’ve left a ton of stuff in the garden that’s a mess and dirty underwear 😂😂 which I defo do not want. I’ll take pics and ask them to remove them. 
    🤮 hope you get it sorted. I’m sure the clause is that they agree to remove all rubbish but I have read some stories on here of all kinds of things left behind!
