I've actually thought a lot about this myself. Couple thoughts: 1) Rent a spot in warehouse-type building with bay doors and "store" your RV in it along with your tools etc. most of them have a bathroom and it's easy to plumb in a shower or connect your RV plumbing to it. You could probably find one for $300-400/month 2) Look for someone with a barn or pole barn and rent from them. House some larger storage tanks for waste that you could have pumped. 3) Find a business (excavator, plumbing, granite supplier) and trade on-site "night security" in exchange for a spot to park and use of the bathroom/shower inside the facility. You could probably find something closer to work and/or family and could write off the rent.

November 6th, I entered into a verbal agreement with a contractor to trade an old SUV for some work in my basement. I'm the homeowner. The work was laying linoleum, installing doors and trim, framing a bathroom, then firing out and insulating the dining room and living room areas of a mother-in-law suite. Two of his guys showed up a few times between Thanksgiving and Christmas, did mediocre work, then I never saw them again. They maybe got half the work done. I've emailed, called, and texted. No answer. Tried to stop by his shop. Another business name is on the door. One of the workers stopped by in March and picked up the tools they left behind and said the owner said he was still going to finish, but no word. I've not paid him a dime and still have the SUV title in my name but I want to sell it or for him to finish. Sick of paying insurance and registration on it. What are my options? 1) Send a certified letter to the address 2) Take out a legal notice in the newspaper 3) Just move on and assume he doesn't care. Doubt he'd sue me over $500-800 worth of work. 4) Other ideas? Thank you!
