US-DE · 25 Del. C. § 4904(a)(2)-(3)

Delaware's self-storage lien statute encoded day-by-day - first notice at D+0, sale eligibility at D+60. 25 Del. C. § 4904.

Delaware lien clock

The full day-by-day clock, with statute citations.

This is the actual policy seeded for Delaware. Every delinquent account locks in the rules that applied the day it opened — later statute updates never retroactively change a case already in flight.

Lien evidence packet

Built for the day you get sued.

For Delaware cases, the packet presents the evidence trail beside the policy snapshot that was pinned when the case opened. It lists notices, delivery proof, ledger entries, photos, and state changes in chronological order. It presents records and citations only. The downloadable sample uses fictional seeded data with redacted names and a SAMPLE watermark.
