Check every door before calling about a lockout
Walk around the car and try every door, the hatch and the trunk. A rear door is sometimes still unlocked. A child or a pet shut inside on a hot afternoon or a below-zero Quad Cities night is a 911 call first.
Locked out beside an interstate or in a dark lot
A lockout on an I-80, I-74 or I-280 shoulder leaves you outside the car, next to traffic. Walk well back from the lanes, behind the guardrail if there is one. Call 911 if the car is stopped in a lane. In a lot after dark, wait somewhere lit, such as a store entrance.
Then call (563) 208-4670 with the exit or mile marker, or the street and the building. Add the make, model and year, and we give you the price and the timing.
Locked out at St. Ambrose University in Davenport
St. Ambrose University polices its parking 24 hours a day, every day. Visitors park in the lots east of Cosgrove Hall or in the marked spaces at the Rogalski Center. The Security Office, on the Rogalski Center's second floor, issues temporary permits.
Cars parked without authorization are towed at the owner's cost. That includes a car in a disabled space or a fire lane, or one blocking a roadway or garage door. A car towed once goes on a list and is towed again for every later violation.
Locked out in a campus lot without a permit? Pick up a temporary one while you wait, and tell us the nearest building.
Lockouts in Davenport ramps, lots and streets
In a parking ramp, give us the ramp, the level and the space. In a store or apartment lot, give the business or building name. On a street, a house number or the nearest corner is enough.
Downtown Davenport street spaces are free for 2 hours, so a car locked on the street there has a clock running. The Redstone, Harrison and RiverCenter ramps charge 75 cents an hour. During a downtown snow emergency, every downtown ramp is free and cars left on the street can be towed. A car locked on a downtown street then needs help right away.
What is included
A technician unlocks your car, SUV or pickup when the keys are shut inside. Show an ID that matches the registration, or show the registration from inside after the door opens.
