This is possibly a litttle off topic.

I have a rental property. The tenants I had skipped out on their
lease, and left the house filthy and did not provide heat which caused
some plumbing damage. I already intend to take them to small claims
court for the damages, cleaning, and unpaid rent according to the
lease.

My question is this: I will have new tenants moving into the
property, and these old tenants left a junked car in the driveway. I
told them in writing that it must be removed, while they were still
living there. They moved about a month ago, and this junker is still
on my property. Can I legally have a wrecker remove it? What is the
proper and legal method to get rid of this piece of junk?

Thanks

I'll bet that50 states have 50 different laws.
Cities too. Start with city hall.
