How Much Will It Cost Me to Get It Out?

Walking out to find your car missing is a nightmare. When it’s impounded, the costs can escalate shockingly fast. Tow fees, daily storage, administrative charges, and unpaid fines can add up to hundreds or even thousands of dollars — often before you even know where your car is. The good news? You don’t have to face this alone. OUTPOUND is here to help you recover your vehicle quickly, safely, and without overpaying.
🔍 Why Cars Get Impounded
Vehicles can be impounded for several reasons:
- 🚦 Parking violations or expired meters
- Private property violations
- ⚠️ Unpaid tickets or registration issues
- 🚔Accidents or abandoned vehicles
Once your car is towed, it’s taken to an impound lot. Every hour it sits, the fees grow, which is why acting fast is critical.
💵 Understanding Impound Costs
Impound fees vary by city, type of tow, and storage duration. Here’s a realistic breakdown for major metro areas:
- Tow Fees: $250–$400 for standard cars; $350–$600 for trucks, SUVs, or oversized vehicles
- Daily Storage Fees: $50–$100/day for standard vehicles; $75–$150/day for oversized
- Administrative / Release Fees: $50–$150, plus $50–$100 for after-hours pickup
- Fines or Tickets: $500–$1,000 depending on city and violation
💥 Total Potential Costs: In big cities, a few days in an impound lot can easily top $1,000–$1,500.
