SF2475 modifies regulations on abandoned vehicles, including retrieval of personal property, notice requirements, and fees.

SF2475 updates the handling of abandoned vehicles in Iowa. It allows the registered owner to retrieve personal property from an abandoned vehicle once, without reclaiming the vehicle. The bill mandates that garagekeepers provide notice to the owner and any lienholders twice, once by regular mail and once by certified mail, parcel delivery, or personal delivery. It also requires garagekeepers to display their contact information on towing vehicles and at their business. The bill prohibits garagekeepers from charging fees on days they are not open and mandates they accept credit card payments.
