Frequently Asked Questions

Towing Crosbyton handles non-consent tows for the county on a 24/7 basis, though no fixed physical lot address is listed in standard public directories — coordinating pickup means calling the dispatch line directly. Expect a hookup and tow fee between $150 and $300, with daily storage capped at the state maximum of $22.85, plus administrative fees running $50 to $150.

A real evidentiary complication: if the arresting agency has placed an active hold on the vehicle for further processing or asset forfeiture considerations, the lot is legally prohibited from releasing it, and the owner has to petition the arresting agency directly before any payment even matters. Retrieval also requires valid photo ID and proof of ownership — a title or current registration. If the owner's license was confiscated at arrest, a sober, licensed driver has to accompany them to physically remove the vehicle. Texas law bars the lot from demanding proof of insurance as a condition of release.

A genuinely useful procedural detail: a tow hearing has to be filed in the Justice of the Peace precinct where the traffic stop and tow actually happened, not necessarily wherever the vehicle ended up stored. For Crosby County, that's Justice of the Peace Precinct 1 Place 1 at the Crosby County Courthouse, and the request has to be filed within 14 days of the tow.
