Doesn't matter if there isn't a written lease......a verbal lease is the same thing.
If a tenant doesn't pay their rent, you can hire a bailiff to enter the premises and seize enough of their belongings to cover the cost, as well as the bailiff fee. This includes vehicles. The other option is to give them 15 days written notice to cancel the lease, at the end of which you can evict them.
Long story short, if a tenant doesn't pay rent you can REALLY screw them over. I've had to do it once, so if you need any info let me know and I'll dig up a number you can call to get them out.
