Filing Fee Rubbish Removal

Order

James Thompson must pay [The landlord/s] $791.40 immediately for rubbish removal, trailer hire, dump fees and mileage, cleaning and reimbursement of filing fee, as calculated and shown in table below. DescriptionLandlord Rubbish removal: and specific cleaning$770.96 Filing fee$20.44 Total award$791.40 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$791.40

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, the tenant did not attend. The Tribunal rang the tenant twice on his mobile number, but it went unanswered.
The landlord has applied for compensation and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy. The tenancy terminated because of a previous Tenancy Tribunal hearing before adjudicator Blake on 10 January 2024. The rent arrears and disposal of possessions left at the property were dealt with in that hearing, application number 4765479.
This application is solely to deal with the vacated claims for specific cleaning and rubbish removal, trailer hire, mileage, and dump fees.

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 is required to replace worn out smoke alarm batteries during the tenancy. See section 40(1)(ca) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. The tenant must also replace standard light bulbs.
The tenant did generally leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy but had not cleaned the oven and did not remove all rubbish and possessions left at the property.
The previous order directed that the landlord could dispose of possessions left at the property that were deemed to have no value. The landlord needed to employ the services of a tradesman to collect the rubbish, hire a trailer to take the possessions to the rubbish dump, mileage and dump fees and attend to specific cleaning.
An invoice for $770.96 from Karabiner Cleaning Services dated 29 January 2024 was provided to the Tribunal, in addition to an exit inspection report and photographs.
The amounts ordered are proved.
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
The landlord seek suppression of their name and details. As they have been successful, I am granting suppression.
