The owner of any frozen food locker plant shall have a lien on the contents of each locker, compartment or space for the payment of the locker rental thereon and any processing or other charges. Such lien may be foreclosed by giving a written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested to the renter of such locker, compartment or space, and, after ten (10) days from date of the notice, the owner may proceed to sell the contents of the locker, at either public or private sale, for the reasonable value of its contents. If the proceeds from the sale exceed the amount of the lien, the balance shall be duly paid to the renter. The place, time and kind of sale shall conform to the written notice to the renter.
