Frequently Asked Questions
Almost every DUI tow in Lincoln County goes to one place: Stovall's Body Shop and Wrecker Service, a family business that has run the Sheriff's and Fayetteville Police rotation since 1968. The dispatch and release line is (931) 433-1516, and the lot is at 9 Molino Rd in Fayetteville.
Call before you drive over. The wreckers run 24 hours, but the office staff who can process a law enforcement release hold, verify your ownership, and take payment are only there during business hours. Showing up at 2:00 a.m. after a jail release gets you nowhere. On the call, confirm an authorized release agent is present and get the exact total to satisfy the lien.
The property is large, with a body shop, the wrecker yard, and a separate mini-storage complex. Go to the main business office at the 9 Molino Road entrance, not the storage-unit gates.
Storage fees compound every day the car sits, and every day you are in jail is a day of fees. The registered owner has to be present to claim the car, or provide a notarized release-of-property form naming a third party. Whoever picks it up needs a valid, non-suspended license and proof of active insurance, along with the registration or title.
Stovall's is a longtime local business with a cooperative reputation, not a predatory urban operator. The fastest way through is to bring flawless paperwork and be polite. Trying to fight the fees at the counter just slows the release and lets the daily storage rate keep running.
