Should I discard old TR-52 Notices of Abandonment?
 
Answer:

Yes.  Law enforcement agencies are instructed to discontinue mailing Abandoned Vehicle Notices (TR-52) to vehicle owners and secured parties. Under the Abandoned Vehicle law, the Secretary of State sends the notices within seven days from the LEIN entry.

 

At the same time, the department will send a Bill of Sale (TR-52L) to the law enforcement agency that entered the abandoned vehicle on LEIN. If you need to dispose of the vehicle immediately (i.e., scrapped), you may complete the Certificate of Scrapping (TR-208).
