Junk Car

I have been asking my tenants since Dec. 1st, 2007 to remove a car from the yard. Every week I ask again what their plan is. Each week I get a new answer: "my friend is taking the car", "my father is taking the car", "we are towing it away", blah, blah......

I called the police dept. and local towing company. I was told I can tow it at my expense.($225) And if the tenants redeem it, I get the $225 back. This dollar number is nearly a half month's rtent, though not alot of money in the laregr picture.

The car is in the way of work I am doing at the property. Do I tow and piss off the tenants and lose the money? Leave the issue alone? Drag the car into the tenats current (and fav) parking spot?
