Filing Fee Rent arrears Rubbish Removal

Order

Timothy Rynd must pay Modus Community Housing Limited $2,450.60 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $312.00 (6451594-001) to Modus Community Housing Limited immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, conducted via video. The tenant did not join and a call out was made. The call went unanswered and to voicemail. He is understood to be living in Australia now.
There was a question of service given the application was lodged two months after the tenancy ended. Further information had been provided by the applicant and I was satisfied it was appropriate to dispense with the requirement for service and proceed as if the notice or other document had been served on the party (see s 91B(2)(c) Residential Tenancies Act 1986). I continued with the hearing after the call to the tenant went unanswered.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy ended on 4 August 2023. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy was $1,922.21.

Did the tenant comply with their obligations at the end of the tenancy?

At the end of the tenancy the tenant must leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, remove all rubbish, return all keys and security devices, and leave all chattels provided for their benefit. See section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish. He gave notice remotely and instructed the landlord to empty the premises.
The landlord provided an invoice for $819.95. That invoice included a clean, rubbish removal and a fridge clean. Photos from the exit support the effort and cost and the full invoice is awarded. Application filing fee
Because Modus Community Housing Limited has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
