Q: Can I call the cops on someone for throwing my things away from their house without letting me know? Is it theft?

My uncle had a room in his house that I was going to move into, but after I got my belongings in there he changed his mind but let me keep my things there for safe keeping and free storage. They moved to San Antonio and didn't tell me they discarded my things until after the fact.
