WEll, first off, did you have a contract or agreement for storage fees? If not, then selling it is going to be difficult to impossible. You have tohave an impound license to do this, or a contract for storage fees.
Assuming you have those, there are several steps.
First, you need to take the agreement to the DMV and request an RO/LO check (Registered owner / Legal Owner). The RO is whoever has the title to the car. An LO would be a bank or lienholder.
When that comes back, you send certified letters to BOTH parties (If there is no LO, just send to the RO). The letter needs to state that the owner has 21 days to remove the property or it will be sold at auction.
You need to place a notice in the legal section of your paper, or any local publication that has circulation within your area. You cant put it in the Thrifty Nickel, it has to be a real publication. That notce must also state that the owner has 21 days to remove the property or it will be sold at auction.
If the registered letter comes back to you, DO NOT OPEN IT. Opening it will start the whole process again. You must keep the sealed envelope as prrof you attempted to contact hte RO at his last known address.
You must contract with an auctioneer to sell off the property. You must publicize the exact date, time and location of the auction. Then you pay auction fees and keep the balance of the sale.
You will then send a second certified letter to the RO stating the vehicle was sold at auction to satisfy outstanding storage fees.
The buyer of the RV gets all the documentation - storage bill. lein sale affidavit, copies of ad in paper, the unopened certified letters, and any other documentation in order to title and register the RV.

If you DONT have a contract for storage, you cant do any of this. Its abandoned on your property, but with no agreement or impound license you cannot sell it. You need to contact the largest tow yard in your area, and ask them to remove it. THen THEY get to do all the fun steps above. You wont receive any money, but it will be gone, and it will be their legal hassle not yours. xx_satanic_mechanic_xx
