Report an abandoned vehicle

Abandoned vehicles can take up important parking space or present a hazard to the neighborhood.

How

You’ll need the following information about the vehicle to submit a report:

  • The exact address
  • Whether the steering column is broken
  • Condition
  • Make and model
  • Color
  • Body style
  • License plate number and state
