Can landlords touch your stuff?

Can a landlord move in after a tenant moves out?
While the property is let to the tenant it is hers and you have no right to go in there or indeed do anything with it without her permission, until the tenancy ends (which won’t be until after she moves out). If you try to move someone else in, this would be harassment and trespass and you could be sued and ordered to pay compensation.
Do you still have rights to property if you move out?
Check your local laws before disposing of or selling anything.

As previously mentioned, it is possible that the tenant still has rights to the items.

What happens to permanent fixtures when tenant moves out?
Permanent fixtures installed at the property by tenants – such as built-in bookshelves or lights – are considered part of the property. They are yours to keep and do not need to be reported.
