What will I owe?

Pick where the car was towed and when. We add up the fees allowed under the state or city rules and show your deadline to contest the tow.

Got your receipt? Check it for overcharges

Type what the lot charged for each line. We flag anything above a confirmed legal cap.

Think the tow or the bill was wrong?

Ask the lot for an itemized receipt, compare it to the legal limits, and request a hearing before the deadline. Our step-by-step guide and calculator are free.

Questions

How is the impound bill worked out?

Usually a tow (hook-up) fee, a storage fee for each day or part of a day, and sometimes an impound, notice or after-hours fee. Where the state or city sets a maximum, the calculator shows the most they may charge.

Why does it say some fees are not confirmed?

We only show a number when it appears in the law, a regulator fee schedule or an official city page. If we could not confirm one, we say so instead of guessing.
