What to do if your car has been towed....

VEHICLES TOWED BY LOUISVILLE METRO ARE TAKEN TO VARIOUS CONTRACTED LOTS THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY, NO MATTER WHERE OR WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED.

If you think your car may have been towed, please call the Local Government Radio Dispatch at 502-574-3506.  You can call anytime of the day or night.

To determine if your car has been impounded by the Louisville Metro Police Department, you will be asked for your:

                              License Plate Number

                                             or

                      Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)


Once it is determined where the vehicle is located, you will need to call that lot for details on

• when you can retrieve your car
• the cost to get your car out of the impoundment lot
• what is required to claim your car (i.e. ID, title, license, VIN number, etc.)

If your vehicle is not located at one of the tow lots used by LMPD, it is possible that your vehicle was left at the scene or your vehicle may have been towed by a different law enforcement agency, such as Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Shively Police Department, St. Mathews Police Department, Jeffersontown Police Department, etc.
