Marked Abandoned
Within a few days of receiving an abandoned vehicle tip, an officer will mark the vehicle as abandoned with an orange warning sticker. Seventy-two hours after the vehicle is marked as abandoned, the officer will return to determine if the vehicle has been moved. If the vehicle has not been moved, the vehicle will be towed.
Towing Companies
The City maintains a rotating list of multiple local towing companies; if you would like to apply for your towing company to be added to the rotating list, please contact the Traffic Sergeant via the Dublin Police Services Business Office.
