How our tools work

The tool shows the usual path based on your state and whether the vehicle is on public or private property. It is designed to help you find the right office, the likely sequence and the official links to confirm the current rules.

Start with your state, then choose whether the vehicle is on public or private property. Those two paths often use different offices, different notices and different timelines.

Use the results as a starting point, not the final word. Before you tow, report, post notice or apply for title, confirm the latest rules with the official office shown in your results.

Nothing you type into a tool is saved on our servers unless the tool says so. Letter builders and checklists run entirely in your browser.
