Crushed motorhome incident in Elbeuf blocks canopy project

In October 2025, during storm Amy, a wall collapsed onto a motorhome parked at the Elbeuf media library (Seine-Maritime). The wreckage was removed in early July 2026, but the installation of shade canopies and additional parking on the newly renovated square remains stalled due to a legal dispute over insurance liability. Mayor Djoudé Merabet stated that no timeline for resuming work can be set, and once approved, completion will take about two months.

Mayor of Vence files complaint over illegal caravan occupation on private land

Since July 14, a private plot in Vence (Alpes-Maritimes) has been illegally occupied by caravans, growing from two to six. The mayor has contacted the prefect and prosecutor, noting the land is in a red fire-risk zone and that temporary residents have tapped into a fire hydrant for water. Similar illegal encampments are rising across France: in Saint-Nazaire, about 300 caravans occupied farmland; in Savoie, 200 caravans settled on a private agricultural field.

Caravan and tiny house culture drives new era in home appliances

The rise of caravan and tiny house living is reshaping the home appliance industry, shifting demand from large kitchen units to compact, portable technologies. French company Daan Tech has introduced the BOB Mini dishwasher, measuring 34 cm wide and weighing 10 kg, with a 3.9 L integrated water tank that eliminates the need for a fixed water connection. It uses 2.9 L of water and 0.43 kWh per cycle, washes dishes in 20 minutes, and is designed for caravans, boats, campsites, and small apartments.
