Frequently asked questions
Q. Does it matter how long I leave my vehicle at Triple J Towing?
Yes, there is a towing and daily charge for your vehicle to sit at our location.
Q. What will happen if I just leave my vehicle at your lot?
It will approximately take 25 to 30 days to process your vehicle for auction. At that time whatever is owed on the lien minus what the vehicle sales for, you are responsible to pay. If not paid the lien amount will go to collection.
Q. What if I never put the vehicle in my name?
It is the law that when you sell a vehicle you are required to do a sellers report in most states. So most likely the person who sold the vehicle to you did this and this is a legal document which puts you as the buyer responsible for the lien amount.
Q. What happens if I cannot make payment or don’t want my vehicle back?
We understand that sometimes this happens, which we do offer what we call a release of liability. You can pay the initial towing plus tax within 7 days, anything after 7 days will be rate adjusted depending on the amount of days in our lot. We strongly suggest this if you are not going to pickup vehicle so you are not turned over to collection.
