What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA

This may not be the right section to post this questions but here it is anyway. I recently found out my girlfriend cheated on me, I don't want her stuff here anymore but she is not coming to get it. She has been staying here for a couple of months and has a lot of stuff here. She has never paid rent! I want to know how long I have to keep her stuff here before I can get rid of it. I can't really just leave it outside because I live in an apartment complex and there's a possibility someone might take it or damage it. What should I do?

Thank you for your help.

Did the landlord know that your girlfriend was staying with you for a couple of months? Did you have something in writing that required her to pay rent? The rules don't suddenly change because you're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend.
