Frequently asked questions
Plain-language answers about Alabama move-out checklist papers. LeaseGen.io is not a law firm. Confirm current statutes before anyone signs.
- What is a move-out checklist?
- It records unit condition when the tenant surrenders possession. Use it alongside the move-in list before you send the deposit accounting. Alabama does not set a statewide maximum security deposit. After the tenancy ends, unused deposit plus an itemized list is generally due within 60 days (Ala. Code § 35-9A-201). Ordinary wear and tear is not deductible.
- When is the deposit due back in Alabama?
- Unused deposit money is generally due within 60 days after the tenancy ends, with an itemized list of lawful deductions (Ala. Code § 35-9A-201). Ask for a forwarding address in writing.
- Is the move-out checklist the same as deposit itemization?
- No. The checklist documents condition. Itemization is the formal accounting that states what you kept from the deposit and why. You may need both.
