Late On The Rent: Escambia County To Dispose Of RV Left Behind At Lake Stone
October 21, 2024
Escambia County will dispose of a dilapidated recreational that was abandoned at Lake Stone near Century after the owner did not pay rent.
Back in September, Escambia County Parks and Recreation asked Code Enforcement to assist with the removal of an abandoned camper that had been stored at the Lake Stone Campground since August 2024. Officials said the owner of the camper was two months behind on rent, and the owner, as identified by the vehicle registration, was mailed two notices.
Last week, the Escambia County Commission voted to remove and dispose of the RV. Staff noted that the rental agreement for the Lake Stone Campground states that any abandoned camper will be removed after 31 days.

Auction if off!
Ok, everyone needs to calm down and go camping.
What part of “dilapidated” do people not understand? I’m sure if it were livable it would not be set for demolition.
Yes please donate it to either NC or south Florida. People are homeless. It would be very sad to destroy the camper, if it is in good shape and liveable, knowing there are people who need a home.
Please donate iit to North Carolina for a person or family who have lost everything including family members. We can take it to North Carolina
It’s obviously not dilapidated on the out side. So what was the disposal plan, while addressing it as dilapidated.
Wish it was as easy to remove and dispose of derelict boats of any sort.
Lots of abandoned, dumped, left behind boats litter our waterways and it takes a lot of effort to have them removed.
This camper thing, with so many 1+ folks wanting it they should be able to work with county to buy it….
I thought the length of stay was 30 days max… how can they be two months behind?
I feel this needs to be auctioned if anything. Ill buy it for the rent they did not pay. And some more but the fact that they are disposing of it shows they dont even want the money they could get. Please let someone buy it. This could be an answer to prayers for people (including me) to have the opportunity to purchase something for a decent price, fix it up, and use it. Especially with people trying to sell beat up things for the price you could buy one new. Please bless someone with the opportunity.
Scrap it… Not knowing what type of drugs residues in it.
THE OWNER OF THE CAMPER WENT TO JAIL ON DRUG CHARGES (SUPRISE)
WITH NO LIVING FAMILY TO ASSIST.
Instead of trashing it, maybe donate to someone who has lost their home in one of the hurricanes!
Looks like it just needs washing. No obvious exterior damage.
Was a wellness check requested to the sheriff’s office in the town of the mailing address? Was there not an address and or phone number provided on the rental agreement when the camper arrived?
If the camper is solid, I’d be willing to bid on it.
Been looking for one to strip down and re-do into an EmComm trailer for the ham radio club.
Just curious –
Apparently certified mail doesn’t mean anything anymore. I have had at least 3 pieces of certified mail signed for and stuffed into my mail box.
I called the post master each time, was told they would “look into the problem”.
Pretty sure that’s illegal, but if the courts and USPS say it’s okay then I guess it’s okay now.
Who knew in 2024 that your mail man can accept your legal responsibilities for you?
What a great time to be alive!
I will come get it today if u can give me some kind of paperwork or bill of sale. I mean all there going to do is trash it or take it to a salvage yard
Was mail certified?
With state of mail system simply mailing something doesn’t guarantee delivery.
If your willing to sell it. I’m sure someone would love to purchase it. To many families without homes. If salvageable and liveable I’m sure someone at a reasonable price would buy to have a home.
