I don't think there is anything wrong with thinking about things. It's an intellectual exercise.

The more I think about it, it's the time frame that matters to me. I'm assuming the tenant doesn't know their stuff is on the curb. And that's why I think it's not moral to take it yet. But once the tenant is aware of what is going on and has had a chance to fix it, anything left over is trash at that point.

But I'm convinced that it's both legal and ethical. I'm certain that the rules were followed. The labdlord opens themselves up to too much liability if they didn't follow the rules. They wouldn't do that.

So I'd feel fine taking anything left tomorrow morning. But there won't be anything left then.

I'm leaving now and we'll see what's left of the pile. I walked by mid-clean out, so more may have come out after I walked by.
