Don’t Get Overcharged by Towing Companies
Having your vehicle towed can be stressful, and sometimes towing companies take advantage. They may charge very high fees, add hidden costs, or use aggressive tactics to get extra money. This can leave you frustrated, angry, and out of pocket. At Unscrewed, we help people like you fight back. We review towing invoices, check fees against legal limits, and guide you to recover your money or challenge unfair charges. Even if full reimbursement isn’t possible, your story helps expose dishonest towing companies and protect others from being overcharged.
What We Take On
We help with all kinds of problems people face with towing companies, making sure you are treated fairly:
Excessive Towing Fees
Some towing companies charge way more than what is reasonable for hooking up and moving your vehicle. We check every part of your bill, compare it to standard rates, and fight to lower fees so you only pay what is fair.
Unfair Tactics
Tow operators sometimes try to scare you, rush you, or pressure you into paying more than necessary. We explain your rights in simple language, guide you on how to respond, and help you stand up to these tactics.
Confusing Rules and Paperwork
Towing invoices and notices can be full of confusing terms and numbers. We help you understand exactly what you’re being charged for and which fees are legal or illegal.
Hidden Charges
Extra costs can appear on your invoice that you didn’t expect, like storage fees or “service charges.” We carefully review your bill, identify any hidden or unfair charges, and challenge them so you don’t get overcharged.
Delayed Vehicle Release
Some towing companies hold your vehicle for hours or even days to force you to pay extra. We work to get your car returned quickly and fairly, making sure they follow the rules.
Sharing the Truth
Even if we can’t recover the full amount, we expose companies that overcharge, break the rules, or use predatory tactics. Your story helps protect other drivers from being treated unfairly in the future.
