Reporting an abandoned vehicle
You can report a vehicle online or by calling the Bellingham Police Department at (360) 778-8802. Be prepared to give the address where the vehicle is located as well as a full description of the vehicle (make, model, color, and license plate number). Also let us know how long the vehicle has been at the location. We would also like your name and phone number so the Bellingham Citizen Patrol (BCP), or officer who responds to your call, can contact you if needed. Your name and phone number are kept confidential.
