Towed car in Chicago
We email when the City's public list matches a hash of the plate you gave us. We store that hash and the last three characters, not the plate.
A missing email is not proof the car is still there. We do not show a history.
Look up your address to add a plate, or to check your street.
Questions people actually ask
How do you know my car was towed?
We email when the City's public list matches a hash of the plate you gave us. We store that hash and the last three characters, not the plate. Look up your address at Don't Get Swept to add one.
I didn't get an email. Is my car still there?
A missing email is not proof the car is still there. The City list can lag, and some tows have no plate.
Can I see a history of tows for my plate?
No. We do not show a history.
