Frequently Asked Questions
JD's Wrecker Service, operating since 1979, is the primary impound contractor for law enforcement tows in the Anson area, running 24/7 recovery dispatch with a secondary yard in Munday. The attached auto body shop itself keeps business hours only on Mondays, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. — a separate matter from vehicle release.
Texas caps a light-duty tow at $272, a drop fee (if the owner arrives while the vehicle is hooked up but still on-site) at $135, daily storage at $22.85 per calendar day, an impoundment fee up to $20, and a notification fee up to $50.
Retrieving the vehicle requires photo ID plus proof of ownership — a title, current registration, or notarized bill of sale. If the arresting agency placed an evidentiary hold on the vehicle, the lot legally cannot release it until that hold is cleared directly with the Sheriff's Office or the arresting municipality. Owners can always access the vehicle for free to retrieve personal property or ownership documents, and the facility must accept cash, debit, and credit cards.
