Policy

The contracted towing service will tow from anywhere in or near the City of Minneapolis. However, if it is necessary to tow a vehicle for MPD business from far enough out of the city to justify a private towing service, officers shall contact the Fleet Manager or the on‑duty Watch Commander for permission. The bill for such service will be accompanied by a memorandum and forwarded to the Auto Desk.
