There are procedures for substituted service to use when you are unable to serve a defendant. For example, some states allow service by publication, i.e. placing an ad in paper. There are several different methods of substituted service, you just need to check the laws of your state. Usually you need court approval for substituted service. I would call the small claims court and ask the clerk about this. If you cannot get help from the clerk, file a motion in writing with the court asking for substituted service and ask the judge.
