Should you not have your driver’s license with you or your driver’s license is no longer valid, please be advised that you must provide a “licensed” driver to remove your vehicle from any of our impound lots.

Only loose personal belongings may be removed from an impounded vehicle.

All vehicles placed on hold by a police department, will require a court release before you can get your car.

You must pay with cash, credit card, or bank verified check.

or

Bring an original notarized letter signed by the vehicle owner stating that you are their authorized agent allowed to pick-up their vehicle or property. Government issued photo ID required.

Can I Redeem A Car With A Bill Of Sale?

A bill-of-sale does not constitute proof of ownership in Washington State, and therefore cannot be used to redeem an impounded vehicle.

You must go to a licensing agent and transfer the vehicles’ registration into your name before attempting to redeem the vehicle.
