Frequently Asked Questions

Allen's Body Shop & Wrecker Service, right in Pittsburg, handles most impounds in Camp County and runs 24/7. Because the facility accepts vehicles around the clock, Texas regulation requires it to release them around the clock too — no lunch closure, no overnight cutoff to navigate, which genuinely sets it apart from a lot of smaller rural lots.

State caps apply regardless: $272 for a standard tow, $22.85 a day for storage, up to $22.85 more for securing the vehicle, and a one-time $50 notification fee if it sits unclaimed past 24 hours. The lot can't demand proof of insurance before releasing a car, and it has to accept at least one electronic payment method. If its card reader is down, Texas law bars it from charging additional storage fees past the date someone attempted to pay.

Retrieving the vehicle requires valid photo ID and documentation proving ownership — a title, a current registration receipt, or a notarized power of attorney. If the tow itself seems unlawful or the fees charged exceed the state cap, Texas law allows a hearing to contest it, filed with the Justice of the Peace for the precinct where the vehicle was towed.
