Only the Sheriff can physically remove a tenant in Nassau or Suffolk county. Once you get your warrant of eviction from Court, you bring it to the Sheriff and the Sheriff will come to the apartment and serve the tenant with a 14 day notice. If the tenant doesn’t leave at the end of the 14 days, the Sheriff can return and physically remove the tenant from the premises. In Nassau County, landlords are also required to pay for 30 days of storage for the tenants' belongings if the Sheriff has to physically remove them.
