Abandoned Vehicle Removal FAQs
What do I need to do to have a car removed from my property?
To have an abandoned or unauthorized vehicle removed, you’ll need to confirm that you're the property owner or authorized agent. It helps to have the license plate, VIN, year, make, and model of the vehicle available. This allows us to check with local authorities to ensure the vehicle isn’t reported stolen before proceeding with legal removal.
Do I have to be the property owner to request a tow?
Yes. Only the property owner or an authorized property manager can request removal. We’ll confirm authorization before dispatch.
Is it legal to tow a vehicle from private property?
Yes — as long as proper procedures are followed. We help ensure all removals are compliant with Arizona towing laws and local regulations.
What types of vehicles can you remove?
We remove abandoned cars, trucks, SUVs, and sometimes trailers or motorcycles. Call us to check if your situation qualifies.
Can you tow a vehicle at night?
Yes, we offer 24/7 dispatch — including night and weekend removals.
Will I be charged for the removal?
In many cases, no. If the vehicle is forfeited or abandoned, we often tow it at no charge to the property owner.
Who pays for the towing fees?
In most cases, the towing fees are recovered from the vehicle owner. If the vehicle is truly abandoned and forfeited, there’s often no cost to the property owner or manager.
Do you work with apartment complexes or HOAs?
Yes — we regularly partner with apartment managers, commercial landlords, and HOA boards to legally remove unauthorized or abandoned vehicles from private lots.
Can you tow vehicles from alleys or public easements?
If the vehicle is on or blocking your private access, and it’s abandoned or creating a safety issue, we may be able to remove it. Call us to verify the location and situation.
How do I find my car if it was towed?
If you believe your vehicle was towed in Phoenix, start by calling the Phoenix Police Department non-emergency line at (602) 262-6151. They can confirm if your car was impounded and which towing company has it. If Freeway Towing & Storage towed the vehicle, call us at (602) 377-0036 and we’ll help you through the release process.
