20. If the items are owned in a trust

The other family members in the house may already be co-trustees and the items simply stay with the trust and whoever is in it.

If the are owned directly by the individual, the items should be in possession of the executor of the will or estate until the designated beneficiary or heir is approved to take possession. They have to submit all the normal paperwork but can apply to have them transferred tax exempt, so no $200 fee per item again.
