Is my car at the Sarpy County impound lot?
The lot holds vehicles towed by the Sarpy County Sheriff's Office, La Vista Police, Papillion Police and the Nebraska State Patrol. Call the lot at (402) 253-2590 with your plate number or VIN to check that your car is there and ask what you owe.
- Towed in Bellevue or Gretna? Those cities aren't on the lot's list. Call Sarpy County's 24-hour non-emergency line at (402) 593-4111 to find out where your car went.
- Towed in Omaha or by the Douglas County Sheriff? Check the Omaha impound lot instead.
- Towed from a private lot? The sign where you parked names the tow company. See the towed-car finder.
Before you drive out
- Call first. Confirm the car is there, what you owe and what to bring. The county doesn't post its fees or a document list online.
- Go on a weekday. The lot is open 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m., Monday–Friday, and closed weekends and holidays.
- Get there by 4 p.m. That gives staff time to process your release, or a request to get property out of the car, before the lot closes at 4:30.
- Bring cash or a credit card for the towing and storage fees.
Releasing the car to someone else
- Someone else picking it up? Fill out Sarpy County's Vehicle Release Form (PDF).
- Taking the vehicle because of a lien? You'll need the Hold Harmless Form (PDF).
How to get a hold released
A hold stops the lot from releasing the vehicle. To clear it, contact the law enforcement agency that towed the car and ask it to release the hold with the impound lot. For Sheriff's Office tows, Sarpy County's non-emergency line answers 24/7 at (402) 593-4111. For La Vista Police, Papillion Police or the Nebraska State Patrol, contact that agency directly.
Need a tow from the impound lot?
Car won't start at the lot?
Cars that sit for days often come out with a dead battery or a flat tire. Once your car is released, dispatch can send one of our towing partners' trucks out to Springfield to jump it, change the tire or tow it home or to your shop. Ask the lot what it needs to release the vehicle to a tow truck.
