What should be done with items of excessive bulk at a police impound lot?

Items of excessive bulk at a police impound lot should be stored until they are needed for investigation because they may contain evidence related to a case or may be pertinent to an ongoing investigation. Properly securing these items ensures that they are available for further examination or examination by investigators, ensuring that nothing crucial is overlooked.

While there might be a need to manage space and organization at the impound lot, retaining such items for as long as they might be relevant to a case upholds the integrity of the investigative process. It also prevents potential destruction of evidence, which could lead to complications in legal proceedings. The approach reflects an understanding of the importance of maintaining a chain of custody and ensuring all relevant materials are available for judicial and investigative requirements.
