So glad he finally has his things out of your house, if not you pod. I will be another voice suggesting that you have your locks rekeyed. It isn't too expensive to do and worth the peace of mind it brings. It not your peace of mind, then the peace of mind of all of us peas! We are finishing a remodel within 2 weeks. There has been a lockbox to allow access to the master bedroom, as well as the gate code given to the contractor and specific workers. As soon as they are out of here the locks will be rekeyed and the gate code changed. In the meantime one of us is always here, along with the dogs.

The front door hardware is due to be changed next week. Until then, I have a deadbolt that I throw that keeps the door locked even if you have a key. That is in place now and will remain there until they put the new hardware on. I will be locking all the windows before dark tonight, I just needed to get some fresh air into that room. And there is no way the renter could climb up into that window without my next door neighbor seeing him. They watch my house for anything unusual and always have, for which I am very grateful. And that neighbor now cannot stand my renter, so no way would he be stepping foot onto this property without my neighbor seeing him.
As far as his stuff in the pod, if he doesn't come and get it, the pod people will be picking the pod up anyway, probably just cut the lock off, and do whatever they want to do with his stuff inside. That's no longer my problem since it is out of my house.
I am so relieved. I can now walk around the house braless! I know that sounds so minor, but its not to me. I had to be fully dressed every time I left my bedroom and I hated it. Now I can go back to being myself.
I want to know why a few of you think I'm not done with him? I don't think I will be bothered by him any longer. And if he did try, I can call the police. He has no rights to be in my home, which he had as a renter. He did say he wanted to come back in today to clean the carpeting. I said no. I have a carpet cleaner. There is nothing he needs to be in here for now.

I'm delighted to hear he is gone, gone, gone. And yes, get that bra off and let the girls move freely in their own home!

I'm so happy he's gone and out of your life. I had a foot dragger too and when I showed up at my house with my suitcase he was still there. I asked where his boxes were and he didn't have any. I then asked where his garbage bags were and began shoving stuff into them. He just stood around. I told him to go rent a truck. Then he wanted to pick up bums to help load. NO WAY! And like you, a woman down the street took him in!

Yeah, this is great news for you. (But I'm going to miss the crazy renter stories) Me too. Really? Because I almost posted a number of them and thought that I was being too uncharitable. Here are two quick ones for you then. His last one was requesting me to disinfect both the washer and dryer in the middle of my doing laundry so that he could get a couple of loads in there. I told him I was washing my cat blankets and rugs I made a face as if they were disgusting. (They just had some cat hair on them, nothing else) I admit I did that on purpose because I knew it would get to him. I then said after I finished all my cat laundry, I was going to wash up some of the things that had been somewhat exposed to the mold. They smelled a bit moldy, yet didn't have mold on them. These were items that were in the bags that got wet, but they were at the top and did not have mold that I could see. I wanted to wash some to make sure I could get that mold smell out. If I couldn't get the smell out, I was going to have to submit another claim to the insurance like I did for all the clothing that had mold all over it. (And FYI, if anyone ever needs to do that, a full scoop of Oxyclean in with my normal detergent took it right out) I told him I was going to disinfect everything after I finished the cat and then the mold laundry. I know I was pushing his buttons and making him not want to use my machines, but by that time, with the fit he had just pulled over the internet issue, (another story) I knew him thinking my machines needed disinfecting would stop him from pushing me about how long it was taking to do my laundry. And it would prevent him from taking my stuff out and putting it on the floor so he could wash his, which he had done in the past in the middle of the night. Along with his toilet issues, he has issues with his own clothing. He would wash about 8 things in one load and do a double wash and double rinse cycle, running the machine for 2 hours for his 8 things. That irritated me because I told him NOT to use the extra wash/rinse cycles because of the drought. There was nothing on his clothing that would require 2 hours in the machine! But I caught him doing it more than once. I'm sure my water and electric bill are going to go way down now. He also had to run a fan full blast - outside his bedroom door when he was inside the bedroom with his door shut. Why run a fan in an empty hallway like that? He said it was to keep the hallway air from being stale.  ? Yet he wouldn't open the windows in his room for fresh air, he had the blinds closed and that silver material taped over them so that you could not see the blinds at all. Then he hung pictures on the silver stuff. I am big on fresh air and opening up windows every day to change the air out in the house. I leave my own bedroom windows open 24/7 because I am upstairs. What a burden it must be to live within those phobias. And what a relief it is not to have to have them around me anymore. SaveSave

He must have gone to the school of laundry my son is going to.
I just showed him the quick wash option for the four things that he is washing.

There is nothing he needs to be in here for now. I think because he a) has stuff in the pod - even if the Pod people take it away, he could hassle you about that and b) didn't he move just down the street? Not far enough! Anyway, congrats that your ordeal will be over. Save

But I doubt he's done with you. ie: "I want to clean the carpet"

Oh, yeah, freebird, that I get. He also said he wanted to ask me about using the IP he bought on my recommendation. Months he had it here still in the box, and suddenly he now wants to start cooking for himself? Better her house than mine! Although, he did make his eggs and toast in his bathroom. He had one of those all in one machines and would make his breakfast in there. I also noticed when I just went into that room to open up the windows again that he had put that black adhesive rubber stripping stuff for insulation all down the edge of his bedroom door. So that the hallway stale air couldn't come in? Or maybe whatever he was doing in his room couldn't come out? I doubt he was a pot smoker though, which would be one reason to try to block the air exchange. I think maybe he should be a pot smoker to mellow out a bit. He also "forgot" to remove his doorknob. He bought his own keyed knob to put on that room. He's not coming back in for that one! I don't want it on my door, and I have already purchased enough knobs to redo the whole interior of the house, but he's going to have to wait for his until I get around to changing them out after I paint the doors. He had two months to get his crap out. It isn't my fault that he started two days before he had to be done.

Holy crap! Just read small update and final update. He seriously has a problem. Good for you for telling him to get his stuff out immediately.
Can you change your locks completely? I don't think I'd want to risk betting he didn't have an extra key made.
(hugs) to you.

I don't think I'd want to risk betting he didn't have an extra key made. (hugs) to you. Yes, I am having new hardware put on the front doors, which will of course, give me new locks. They will be installed next week. And I doubt with his cheapness he would have paid the $8 to get a duplicate key. And even if he did, my door is now bolted, and even with a key, you cannot enter. He was like a bad rash that you just can't get rid of! I am not too happy about him being down the street, but what can I do? He went knocking on doors and asking to rent a room from all the neighbors! This one neighbor that took him has no idea what she is getting herself into, and from what my next door neighbor said, neither does he. I guess she is a real piece of work and her kids are out of control. I don't know her at all, I'm just glad she got him out of MY house. He may not last too long down there. He has been kicked out of other houses. He didn't even last a month in one of them. I honestly don't think he realizes how he comes across to others. He can be really nice, but he also latches on and starts with his weirdness. He can't handle change very well, as was made obvious to me by how he became such an ass during my leak repair. It is no wonder he's been married 3 times, and now rents rooms from women, probably hoping for a 4th. SaveSave
