Abandoned property

A renter who didn't pay October rent and was given the 3 day notice to vacate, did so on 11/5. Unfortunately, she left behind an apartment full of furniture/clothes etc. She left a voice mail message that someone would be contacting me to pick up everything. So far, I have been contacted once by said people but they did not come on the agreed upon day. 1. How long do I have to hold on to the contents of the apartment? 2. Do I have to send the previous tenant a certified mail to her previous address (as no new one was provided) that the contents will be removed? 3. If I do the above, is there a time limit from the time the letter is sent? I've never been in this situation before, so any help is appreciated. Thank you.
