Frequently Asked Questions
MARS Towing & Recovery, at 1206 W Brown St in Hearne, handles the bulk of Robertson County's law-enforcement tows — 979-497-9205, though confirmed release hours weren't available for this report. The company also runs an administrative and repossession hub in neighboring Bryan, so it's worth verifying exactly which location has your vehicle before driving out.
Texas's statewide fee caps apply: $255 for a light-duty tow, $357 for medium-duty, $22.85 a day storage, another $22.85 for the impound fee, $50 for a one-time notification fee, and a capped $135 drop fee if you catch the vehicle before it leaves the scene.
Bring valid ID and proof of ownership, or a notarized authorization from the registered owner if that's not you. The lot has to accept cash, debit, and credit — Texas law requires it.
If you think the tow itself lacked probable cause, or the fees exceeded state caps, you can request a hearing at the Robertson County JP 1 Court in Calvert, under Judge Barker. The filing fee is $20, and the court must hold the hearing within 21 calendar days of your request — file within 14 days of the tow or you lose that right entirely.
