A notice handed over at 10:00 AM on November 2, 2026 gives 48 hours' notice at 10:00 AM on November 4, 2026. Pick an entry window that starts no earlier than that, during the hours the rule above allows. The form warns you if the window starts too soon.

City and county rules can be stricter than state law, and your lease can require more than the statute does. Use whichever rule gives the tenant more time or protection.
