Abandon Vehicles

JimW

We are a storage facility in Berea Ohio and I am trying to figure out exactly what forms that need to filed at the Ohio BMV and how to fill them out correctly

Go to your local DMV, they have all of the forms that you'll need.

Is it abandoned or a lien?
In Ohio if it is a vehicle in lien your statutes give you instructions:
5322.03

(K)

(1) If the property upon which the lien created under division (A) of this section is claimed is a motor vehicle or a watercraft, the owner shall have the motor vehicle or watercraft towed from the premises if any of the following circumstances applies:

(a) The notice was delivered or sent pursuant to division (B) of this section to all persons holding a lien on the motor vehicle or watercraft, and thirty days have elapsed since the notice was delivered or sent without a response from any of those persons.

(b) Rent and other charges related to the property remain unpaid or unsatisfied by the occupant for sixty days, and no lien holders have been identified.

(c) The owner is planning to hold a sale at auction of the personal property that was stored in the self-service storage unit with that motor vehicle or watercraft, in which case the motor vehicle or watercraft shall be towed prior to the auction.

(2) The owner shall not be liable for the motor vehicle or watercraft or any damages to the motor vehicle or watercraft once the tower takes possession of the property. The notice delivered or sent pursuant to division (B) of this section to all persons holding a lien on the motor vehicle or watercraft shall include the name of the towing company. The name and the address of the towing company shall also be made available to the occupant or any lien holder upon the presentation of a document of title or another document that confirms an interest in the motor vehicle or watercraft....
