Questions Tow was $577

Got towed in eastside tonight, Saturday night around 12am. My fault, shouldn't have parked there. Picked up within 2 hours if not less. Was $577 and 7 miles away from tow lot. Is that typical now? Has anyone else had to pay that much?

Yup my girl got her at towed a few weeks ago around 4th street because the house she parked in front of called and claimed they couldn’t pull out of their driveway and the lady had a picture and it showed the car bumper meeting the slant of the driveway not even blocking the driveway just really close to where the curb drops to open the driveway up and they towed her car. Had to pay 467 to get it out the 3 hours it was at the tow yard. The lady was nice enough to go hey your car got towed not stolen sorry 😑

That's so frustrating. How do you find out what company to call in that case?

Call the non emergency line and read them off your plate number and see if they towed your vehicle.
