Procedure for obtaining a vehicle from an impound lot
To obtain information about the location of your vehicle at a towing facility, you should contact the San Diego Police Department at (619) 531-2844. Upon calling, police officers will provide you with the contact information for the company that operates the impound lot where your vehicle is located.
A breakdown of the amount to be paid is as follows: $600 for towing the vehicle from the starting point, $75 per day for parking, and $100 for the operation of hooking and unhooking the vehicle to the tow truck.
This is how it works. Upon arrival at the border crossing, inform the officer of your intention to pick up the vehicle and obtain a copy of the driver's document that is filled out at the border crossing. This document contains the phone number of the San Diego Police Department, which you must call to find out the exact location of the vehicle. You will be given the address and contact number of the impound lot.
After calling the number provided, you will be able to find out the total amount owed and decide whether to pick up the vehicle or continue parking it. When you arrive at the parking lot, you will be obliged to pay the required amount and only then you will be able to pick up your car. It is important to carry all the necessary paperwork for the car, which must be done correctly. This includes the title and the bill of sale. For example, you can have the original documents in your backpack when you cross the border and leave the copies in the glove compartment of your car. That way, you will arrive at the parking lot with the original documents and your passport or driver's license.
