Towing

Each year, the Police Department tows more than 2,000 illegally-parked vehicles.

Reclaiming Your Vehicle

If your vehicle was towed in Overland Park, cal 913-895-6405 to find out why the tow company removed it.

To reclaim your vehicle you must have the following items with you:

• Picture identification (i.e. driver’s license, passport, state identification card)
• Proof of vehicle ownership by lawful title or other proof of lawful entitlement to the vehicle.
• Current proof of liability insurance on the vehicle.
• Proof of current registration of the vehicle.

The vehicle will be released to the registered owner listed on the title or other lawful entitlement to the vehicle. If this is not possible, the tow company will accept a notarized letter from the registered owner authorizing another person named in the letter to remove the vehicle. The other items listed above will still need to be presented to remove the vehicle from the storage facility.

If you do not have current liability insurance or proof of current registration you will not be allowed to drive your vehicle from the storage lot. You may still reclaim your vehicle by paying the tow and storage charges and have a towing company of your choice tow the vehicle to your residence or other location.
