Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Arizona

I need advice

I rented our semi trailer to a guy at the end of april of 2009(10 months agreement). The guy only paid the security deposit since then and he is not making any rental payments. I left him so many messiges on his phone but he is not responding. Also the adress he gave me where he was leaving at the time agreement was made is incorect that house has been forclosed. I really need help, what do I need to and how to get money that he owns me for rent and also how to get my traler back and I want to cancel agreement with him as well. We dont leave in same state. Please help

Re: I need advice

By semi trailor I assume you mean a truck trailor, you can call police and report theft (prob not take action but would get police report filed, if possible), find and repossess the trailer (you said "rent" so he has no ownership interest, correct? so call local repo company) or you can file a replevin action (expedited lawsuit to take possession of personal property that belongs to you). Would get you a court order enforceable anywhere. Replevin option would be $5000 advance deposit. Could have us write a letter with follow up but I am not optimistic on that.
