I'm not sure how it works in California. In Nevada, if you're a property owner, and a car gets abandoned on your property, you can wait five days (minimum), and then call a junkyard to come get it. They won't pay you for it, but they will make it go away and then take care of the paperwork. I think you see where this is going.
