Evicting 25 year old son

Moonface72

My son works very part time,   doesn't pay me any board as doesn't think he has to!  I want him out.  Any ideas? 

Mr.Generous

Stop cooking for him, doing his washing, having sky / cable TV, financially supporting him, anything else making him so comfortable he doesn't have to work.

Are you buying food for him? washing for him? cooking for him?

Have you told him you want him  out? What was his response

 I had my nephew living with me who didn't work regularly or full time nor did he study.
 I eventually told him he had 3 months to make arrangements to get a job and pay his own way or go to College with me paying or move out. 

 he went to college which still left me paying but it eventually got him into a full time job and moved into his own flat.

You could simply bundle up all his things and put them outside and change all the locks.  But a bit of a firm warning would be good.

You have asked this without providing any context. Are there two parents involved and is this idea shared?/ Are there any other siblings who have been supported? Did he work or attend college previously lose his job become tll? Do you provide him with all food clothing and other creature comforts?. Have you discussed this with any other members of the family and what are  their views? Why have you allowed this to continue unaddressed for so long?

Clearly more going on here than your one line post. Time for a family discussion.

You tell him he has a date to be out by. 

Leave the number for the councils homelessness team and then give him a text with the housing register link and and number and tell him to get that done before the day he need be out.

You then withdraw all financial support and support to sustain his lifestyle. 

If there are issues going on at home seek help through local support agencies or your GP or Social Services. Don't suffer alone in silence.

Jesus wept, make sure not to forget to spit on him out the window while he picks up his things off the pavement.

While it's very kind of you to refer him to the councils homelessness team, a young single man in employment with no disabilities and no dependencies will stand approximately zero chance of being housed.

It would be more pragmatic to offer help with financing the deposit, or acting as a guarantor, than just leaving the council to deal with it.

While it's of course convenient for adult children to live at home (and the parents don't help themselves by subsidising it and waiting on them hand and foot), it can be just as exciting fleeing the nest, gaining his freedom and being able to do what he wants when he wants (this should be an easy sell - it also helps with relationships). You just need to motivate them.

+1 to this ^^^^.

Nobody can give any useful advice on the limited information provided by the OP.

I'd add:
What have you said to him about the situation and what was his response?
