abandoned car?

A tenant moved out of my rental and abandoned a car inside the garage after being served an eviction notice. What is the cheapest/best get rid of this? Call the police (stolen car?) or donate to kars4kids or tow it away somewhere? This is in the Atlanta ghetto area.

@Kevin Lopes To donate or sell it you'll have to get title to it and I'm sure the abandoned vehicle laws vary state to state.

This happened to me once in the past, we chained it to one of our trucks and dragged it out to the street and called the police to report the abandoned vehicle. It got removed by the city with no headache for me. The car had no value above scrap value and it's not worth going through a bunch of paperwork and time for a minimal gain.
