if its a newer car, contact the dealer (it can be any dealer for that car), or even for an older one, if you take your vin # down, they perhaps can make you a key,,,,,,also, you can call a locksmith,,,, they should be able to help you,,,,, otherwise, call your local police department, the non-emergency #, and ask them, im sure they have encountered this before,,,,,,, dont know why you would have to move it by 8,, perhaps you can get permission to leave it longer

Hire a tow truck from a service station or wrecking yard to tow it home. It will cost you - but its better than having someone else tow it off.
In the future have a spare key made and keep it in a magnetic box (get at an auto parts store) and place it under the edge of the hood or under the fender out of sight. Never put it so far under the hood you cant reach it when closed.

Get the dealer to make a new set. I only have 1 set of keys for my car, the dealer made a new one for me but it doesnt start the engine, just opens the door and turns the electrics on. Its so no-one can just claim the car is theirs and steel it. you will need ID tho. Then you can move the car by pushing or towing.

Pull the top corner of the door open with a crowbar or a chock of wood, but not to far, then get a long bit of strong wire i.e a wire coat hanger an find the pull or hit the switch to open for the door or the window (if its electronic locking) Good luck

if the key had a chip in it then no point calling a lock smith as it still wont start.
you realy need a truck to put it on its back by lifting and get to the dealer who will sort it from there.
if its an old car then well thats up to you?

You need to call the dealer ship to get the 1-800 number to call, They will call a Locksmith to make you another key.
Have the vin number ready and the year,make and model of your car.if you have to have the ignition key made and it has a chip in it they will charge you about $100.00.

Have to move it? You could either have a lock smith come and get you going or have it towed someplace it can be left parked until you have time to find your keys. Don't smash your window, replacing the window will cost more than towing it somewhere.

Depends on the situation.
If its minor shunting ,2.5 tonne trolley jack under back end will allow you to move it around since h/brake only applies to rear wheels.

could your keys be in the car? try getting a guy who knows how to open the door with a slim jim other than that you'd probably have to have it towed
