If I arrive at the spot where I parked my car and find a "Vehicle recalled..." sticker, what should I do?

First, we recommend calling and contacting the Municipal Depot located on Calle Metalúrgicas (965 14 95 21). Once you have confirmed that the car is in storage, you should go to the depot to retrieve it.

If I have been fined by the police, do I have to pay the removal fee?

Indeed, the fine issued by the Local Police is one thing, and the fee for the removal and safekeeping of the vehicle, which is a separate municipal service, is another.
Check the fees on the Fees website.

Is electronic withdrawal legal?

It is absolutely legal, given that any removal carried out by the crane operator along with the evidence is approved by a local police officer, so the claim that it is removed without the local police is untrue. Several municipalities, using current regulations, have already incorporated technological means to execute this removal order (verification) remotely without jeopardizing procedural guarantees or the rights of the interested parties. The jurisprudence of the Courts is very broad in this regard and validates such electronic removal (STSJ of Catalonia of April 25, 2005, STSJ of the Valencian Community of November 11, 2005, or STSJ of Catalonia of October 6, 2011).

If I call a tow truck because a vehicle is blocking my way or I see that it is badly parked, will I be charged a fee?

Of course not, since the offender is responsible for the violation.
