So for past 2 year I 25m live in a small apartment building. The apartment didn’t have laundry room for the building when I moved in but did come with hooks up for a washer and dryer in the apartment so I to bought them myself because I work for a wildlife sanctuary and I get pretty dirty during my work.

Just the other day I had to chase down and wrestle one of our wild boars Bacon (we didn’t name him that he came with that name) who love to escape his pen and thinks it funny to play chase.

I got me completely dirty I was covered in grass stain and mud. So I very much need them.

My boyfriend and I just got engaged and since my lease was up I moved into his house with him. I finished moving everything out of my old apartment yesterday and I thought nothing about taken my washer and dryer with me as I had bought them.

(My boyfriend had some but there were old and kept breaking down and were costing to much to have fix.)

Well I woke up this morning to mutiple miss called from My old landlord , I left my phone number and new address in case any mail was delivered to my old places.

I called him back and He asked me why the washer and dryer is gone.

I explain I took them with me

He started freaking out saying that he had put that the place had a washer and drying in the ad for the place. Apparently having raised the rent due to them. He started to demanding I bring them back because the new clients he has set up to move and had already signed the lease are not interested in the place without them. Even threaten to call the police if I don’t take them back

I got angry and told him that I would do no such thing reminding him that they belong to me I bought them and I still had the receipts from when I bought them. As well as text from him when I moved that explaining I was buying them myself.

He again threatens to call the police.

I told him to do it and see what happen and hung up at that point.

Personally I don’t think I’m in the wrong. I bought them and they weren’t cheap so I feel I have the right to take them. My boyfriend is on my side but today co worker said they think I the asshole for not telling the landlord I was taken them. In my opinion that should have been obvious I payed for them why would I leave them.

AiTA for taking the washer and dryer I paid for with me when I moved out of my apartment.
