Vehicle Release Information

If your vehicle has been impounded and requires a release from the Police Department, you must visit our Headquarters in person to secure your vehicle release.  Visit us at 530 Newark Pompton Turnpike, Pompton Plains NJ 07444, and enter from the right side of the building (when facing the building.)

Please note that you will need a copy of a valid insurance card, registration, and driver's license.  The requirements for vehicle release will depend on the original impound reason and the method of release from the tow (driving off the lot, towing to another location, etc.) 

All fees will be paid directly to the tow operator and at no time should you make payment to the Police Desk or directly to an officer for any tow-related fees.
