Frequently Asked Questions
B&B Wrecker Service, at 2738 W F St in Pecos, handles the bulk of DWI impounds for Reeves County. Its hours are the single biggest headache in the entire recovery process: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to noon, then 1:00 to 4:30 PM — a mandatory lunch closure right in the middle of the day — and completely closed on weekends. Arrested on a Friday night? The car isn't coming out until Monday morning at the earliest.
Texas caps the fees regardless of what the lot wants to charge: $272 for a light-duty tow, $380 for medium-duty, $22.85 a day for storage, another $22.85 for the impound fee, and a $50 notification fee. The release line is (432) 447-0231, with (432) 445-3246 for emergency dispatch.
Bring a valid license, proof of insurance, and proof of ownership — a title or current registration. If you're not the registered owner, that person has to show up themselves, or the lot can't legally release the car. If the arresting agency placed an investigative hold on the vehicle, the tow yard can't release it until that hold is lifted directly through the Pecos Police Department or Sheriff's Office — a separate call you'll need to make before heading to the lot at all.
If you think the tow itself was improper, Texas gives you 14 days to request a hearing at the local Justice of the Peace court. The exact local filing fee wasn't available for this report.
One detail specific to the Permian Basin's transient workforce: out-of-state vehicles get a longer grace period before the lot has to send a formal abandonment notice — 14 days instead of the standard 5 for Texas-registered cars. After 30 days past the second notice, the lot can sell the vehicle at auction to recover its fees.
