    Law enforcement activities of the Miami-Dade Police Department frequently result in the impounding of property and evidence.

    • Maintains records of vehicles impounded and released by contract wreckers.
    • Coordinates departmental use of and/or payment for wrecker services.
    • Coordinates vehicle records and investigations with other departmental entities.
    • Investigates unidentifiable or unclaimed impounded vehicles.
    • Investigates complaints to ensure that the contract wrecker companies perform in accordance with the wrecker service contract and applicable laws.

    The Property and Evidence Bureau's main facility is a 50,000 square foot secure warehouse.  In addition, the Bureau operates a remote vehicle storage lot and an off-site overflow facility. 
       
    The Property and Evidence Bureau has;

    • Impounded over 30,000 articles of general property, 11,000 narcotics articles, and 4,000 firearms.
    • Oversaw the towing of approximately 25,000 vehicles.
