Your vehicle will begin to accrue storage charges as soon as it arrives at our state impound facility. The cost to claim your impounded car will increase at midnight each day that it is in our custody.
To redeem the vehicle, the registered owner will need to present the following:
- Proof of Ownership (Title or Registration printed in the last 7 days. Any tag agent can help you with this for a nominal fee. An insurance verification is not acceptable as Proof of Ownership.)
- Valid Government-Issued Photo Identification that matches the name on the ownership document.
- If your tag is expired or missing, you must bring current registration and tag (sticker).
- If the car was impounded for no insurance, bring a valid insurance verification.
- Bring payment for all monies due in cash (Exact change only, we do not provide change).
- If the vehicle was impounded by OU Police or The Village Police, you will need to obtain a release from that police department before claiming your car or any contents.
Also, please note that if you wish to redeem your vehicle outside of normal business hours, an After-Hours Release Fee will apply.
It is not a difficult process. Show us you own it and it is legal to drive, pay your bill, and take it home.
AFTER 30 DAYS FROM THE IMPOUND DATE, VEHICLE FORECLOSURE WILL OCCUR UNDER OKLAHOMA STATUTES, TITLE 47 § 908 – AND YOU WILL LOSE THE RIGHT TO CLAIM THE VEHICLE.
HOWEVER, IN ACCORDANCE WITH OKLAHOMA STATUTES, TITLE 47 § 904 – YOU WILL STILL OWE ANY REMAINING BALANCE DUE FOR TOWING AND STORAGE AFTER DISPOSAL OF THE VEHICLE.
We want you to get your vehicle back. Contact OK TOW immediately to arrange to claim your impounded vehicle.
If you are an out-of-state owner and wish to release your vehicle to someone else who is here in OKC, you will need to print and fax a notarized Absentee Authorization and Hold Harmless Agreement. Please follow the instructions the form, as we must have this to comply with Oklahoma State Law. Failure to complete the form or to have it notarized will result in denial of the release.
