Travis County Justice of the Peace Precinct 3 publishes an application that asks for the receipt or notice, and photos or a no-sign statement. We do not infer that it is the only venue.

Publication

County newspaper or the approved website.

When publication applies, a yard in Travis County may use a newspaper of general circulation in the county or, since September 1, 2025, a TDLR-approved website (currently CarLocate.com/Texas). We have not verified which local papers qualify and confirm that with you. Publication rules

Confirmed at kickoff

What we do not assume.

  • Whether your police or sheriff's office requested abandonment reports, and in what format
  • Whether your city or county sets storage fees lower than the state cap
  • Your rotation-list obligations, if any
