A bike rack on any car you like makes sense to me.

I see why I was confused. I just looked at their membership and you are right that they have guaranteed spots but not reserved spots but they do offer year round trailer storage so you can leave your stuff up there just not set up on site.

Anyone ever gotten rid of a trailer that was of no value to sell? Our trailer, unfortunately, gained some unwelcome squatters of the rodent variety the past couple months, and once we go in and remove everything we can, if the infestation is bad enough we may just get rid of it. It's over 30 years old, so it's on the low end of value anyways. Just not sure we're going to be able to reclaim it enough to sell.

Landfill will take RVs (assuming no motor). You'd have to pay for disposal but that might be better than trying to spend a bunch of time cleaning it and then it doesn't sell anyway...

I have never sold anything to them but they're on my mind as my 5th wheel is getting old. I have successfully purchased from them though.

Lots of people will take them and tear them down into flatbed trailers or turn them into ice fishing shacks or something. Just list it as free or for a super low price and you’ll have a lineup of people willing to take it.
