Whether you are an apartment manager, a bank holding a mortgage on a property, or a private landlord renting out a home or apartment you own there are times when you need to evict the tenant through Marshall eviction. The eviction process consists of a court hearing in which the court will hear evidence and decide if the tenant should be evicted. If an evacuation order is entered, the evicted tenant has a set number of days to remove themselves from premises. However, there are some cases when the residents refuse to vacate the property and landlord must obtain a writ of eviction to have the Sheriff or City Marshall evict the hesitant tenant.
What Happens During a Sheriff or Marshall Eviction
In most cases during a sheriff or Marshall eviction, the sheriff or city marshal will contact the tenant to be evicted and let them know at least 24 in advance that the removal will be taken place. When they arrive at the property, the tenants and everyone residing in the rental unit or property must leave the property immediately, and the door is padlocked, or the locks changed. If the tenants haven’t already removed all their property, they must contact the landlord and gain permission to retrieve their property during regular working hours. The evicted tenant has a set amount of time to make arrangements and recover their assets. (Normally 5 to 7 days).
What Exactly is Marshall Eviction Locksmith Services?
Many landlords prefer to have a locksmith service change the locks or rekey the locks rather than the sheriff or marshal place a padlock on the door. When you hire the locksmith service a key control specialist arrives at the rental property with the Marshall or Sheriff who is handling the eviction and once the tenants are removed they then change the lock on the door or rekey the lock as a safety precaution against the tenant keeping the keys or having a copy of the key that the landlord is unaware of.
Once the apartment or house has the locks changed or re-keyed the locksmith will then give the new keys to the landlord, apartment manager or representative of the bank so that they can let the tenants back into the property to receive their remaining property or issue the new key to the next tenants when the property is rented again.

Are Landlords Required to Change Locks or Have them Re-Keyed after an Eviction?
If you are a new landlord, you may be wondering if you have to have the locks changed or re-keyed following an eviction. Legally the answer is no, but there are several reasons why changing the locks are a good idea. Here are just a few of those reasons:
Evicted tenants are often angry and sometimes vengeful and may decide to enter their former home without your permission. This could result in the new tenants being terrorized, their property being stolen or damaged or damage to the apartment, home or building itself. 
Even if the tenant gave back the key that doesn’t mean they didn’t have the key copied and you simply don’t want multiple keys to your rental property floating around out there somewhere.
Protecting your present and future tenants. As landlords you want your tenants to feel safe and secure in the home, they have rented from you and changing the locks or re-keying the lock after an eviction is a relatively inexpensive and easy way to provide your new tenants with at least a minimum amount of protection.
Replacing that lock or having the lock re-keyed also gives you as a landlord a certain degree of peace of mind. Whether you own the property or are solely responsible for keeping the property in order why take the risk of having to make costly repairs in the case and evicted tenant decides to do damage to the building? Something as simple as re-keying a lock can help protect the building itself and save you thousands of dollars in costly repairs.
