Booted Vehicles

If your vehicle has three or more outstanding tickets, it may be immobilized with a wheel “boot.” If you don’t pay your outstanding tickets — along with the boot fee — within 24 hours of your vehicle’s booting, your vehicle will be towed, and you’ll incur additional tow and storage fees.

Retrieving Your Vehicle

Use one of the following methods to pay your outstanding tickets

  1. Scan the QR code on the notice that was placed on your vehicle, or type in https://arlingtonvaparking.rmcpay.com/ in your web browser to access the RMC Parking Ticket Payment and Processing Portal.
  2. Call 571-570-2208 anytime to pay by credit/debit card. 

Show your proof of payment and vehicle ownership — along with a valid driver’s license — to the Police, who will complete your vehicle’s release form and remove the boot. If your car was towed, they will give directions to your vehicle’s location.
