How many cars were towed in Chicago this week?

The City of Chicago publishes every vehicle it tows or relocates to a rolling 90-day public inventory, updated multiple times a day. Each record includes the plate, make, color, and — most importantly — which impound lot the car was taken to and the phone number to call.

If your car disappeared, search the inventory by plate before assuming it was stolen: city tows for street cleaning, snow routes, and violations far outnumber thefts.
