1. Provide proof of ownership, such as a vehicle registration or title.
2. Pay any outstanding fees, including towing and storage charges.
3. Sign a release form authorizing the towing or storage company to release the vehicle.
Some states have laws that protect consumers from excessive towing and storage fees, so it is important to research the laws in your state before paying any fees.
If the owner does not retrieve the vehicle within the timeframe set by the towing or storage company, it will likely be sold at auction.
