* The city/county where the car was impounded: Each jurisdiction sets its own fees. Larger cities tend to have higher fees than smaller towns.
* The reason for impoundment: A tow for a minor traffic violation will likely cost less than a tow after a DUI or accident.
* Storage fees: These are daily charges for keeping your car in the impound lot. The longer your car stays, the higher this cost becomes.
* Towing fees: The initial cost to have your car towed to the impound lot.
To find out the exact cost, you must contact the specific impound lot where your vehicle is located. They will be able to provide a complete breakdown of all applicable fees. You'll likely need the location of the impound lot and your vehicle information to get this information.
