Right to repossess depends on the terms of your contract. Review it. You
have rights to deny entry into your private home but then they may use the
contract to sue you, obtain a court order, obtain a writ of execution by the
local sheriff, etc. It is likely preferable to settle the matter rather than
go to court over rented furniture. Of course, they will threaten or pressure
you to pay the rent due by threatening to repossess it or sue you which
they will not due unless the amount is substantial.
