When the sheriff does it for you, unless you want to risk liability to the tenant.

After you obtain a judgment for possession, a wtit of possession, the sheriff locks the tenant out of the premises, and after you give notice to the tenant at his last known address that you will be removing the property and giving the tenant a chance to retrieve the property after payment of whatever charges for storage you have incurred.
