<div dir="auto">I once had this problem with an abandoned manufactured home. I also had a Judgement against the owner so we executed on the Judgement bought the home at auction for a couple bucks then, as the new owner put it in Craigslist for free. Guy hauled
it away for a chicken coup. On a fifth wheel we had, when the Sheriff did the move-out on the writ of restitution we just had it towed away on private impound. </div>

<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"> The issue on what to do with abandoned mobile/manufactured homes has come up on this site with various thoughts about solutions. I am not sure about a 5th wheel. Mobile homes have VIN numbers, so you would think that
RCW 46 would cover it. DOL says no, you cannot treat them like an abandoned vehicle. The abandoned property statutes only deal with intangibles. However, there is a small body of case law dealing with abandoned property. Essentially, if there is no intent
to retrieve the property, it is deemed abandoned. You then get into the question of, how do you determine that. </div>
<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"> What I do is include it within my pleadings, something to the effect that if they do not retrieve the property within 30 days or similar, it will be deemed abandoned. I then end up with a court decree that confirms
that. I have used that process maybe 20 times and never had an issue. Almost always I am dealing with a very old mobile home that needs to be trashed. So after we get the decree, the thing is dismantled and taken to the dump. Even if the thing is somewhat
functional, the cost to move it is more than what it is worth. The one huge concern is asbestos in old mobile homes. You need to go through a permitting process and a failure to do so is subject to criminal penalties. I had a client that learned that the hard
way, </div>
