Private Property

Private property towing. Done by the book.

Managing a parking lot is harder than it looks. The rules are strict: the Texas Towing and Booting Act (Occupations Code Ch. 2308) governs every step from signage to dispatch to notice, and Dallas City Code Sec. 48A-43 caps what a non-consent tow can cost by vehicle weight. The enforcement operators in our network work with property managers, HOAs, retail landlords, and apartment complexes metro-wide to enforce parking rules cleanly, no rogue tows, no liability headaches, no customer-facing surprises.

What do Dallas drivers ask about Private Property?

Is private property towing legal in Texas?

Yes, when done right. The Texas Towing and Booting Act (Occupations Code Ch. 2308) requires a written agreement between property owner and tow company, state-compliant signage at every entry, the required notice before towing, and specific release procedures. Every step gets documented in writing before enforcement starts.

Do you work with HOAs?

Yes. HOAs are the most common private-property client. The enforcement operator audits the existing signage, updates the parking rules with the board, and sets a patrol schedule that fits the community. Board members do not make the call, dispatchers do, per the agreed rules. That keeps the board out of personal liability.

Can I call to tow a specific car in my lot?

If there is a signed property management agreement, yes. The property manager, or a designated contact, calls dispatch, confirms the vehicle and the violation, and the operator responds. Without an agreement on file, no legal tow can happen from that property.

What if a resident forgets their permit and gets towed?

They pay the release fee at the vehicle storage facility and get the car back, with full paperwork. It is rare, tows happen only after the required wait time and sign check. If a resident calls in a good-faith mistake, releases are handled professionally and documented. Property managers can also preauthorize per-vehicle exceptions.

Is there a cost to the property?

Usually the vehicle owner pays. Dallas City Code 48A-43 caps a non-consent tow at $121 for vehicles under 10,000 lbs, $191 up to 26,000 lbs, and $445 above that, billed when the driver retrieves the car. How your property's agreement is structured, including any specialty services like event enforcement, gets set in writing before enforcement starts.

Dallas & Park Cities Private Property in Uptown Uptown Dallas, ZIP codes 75204 and 75219, is dense with high-rise apartments and retail along McKinney Avenue, and building garages enforce guest parking and expired passes with regular tows.
Dallas & Park Cities Private Property in Deep Ellum Deep Ellum, ZIP 75226, sits along I-30 and US-75 and its nightlife strip pulls late-night parking tows when street spots and small lots fill up on show nights.
North Dallas & Richardson Private Property in Richardson Richardson sits where US-75, the President George Bush Turnpike and I-635 converge, and that three-highway crossing brings a steady run of commuter crashes and breakdowns. UT Dallas student housing and the Telecom Corridor office parks add their own private-property tow patterns on top of the highway traffic.
Collin County North Private Property in Plano Plano runs along US-75, the Dallas North Tollway, PGBT and SH-121 Sam Rayburn Tollway, so a stalled commuter car can end up flagged for towing under any of three separate toll authorities. Corporate campuses including Toyota’s North American headquarters, with garages built to hold roughly 10,000 vehicles, and Frito-Lay’s headquarters add breakdown and enforcement volume of their own.
Collin County North Private Property in Frisco Frisco sits along the Dallas North Tollway, SH-121 and Preston Road, and event traffic around The Star and Toyota Stadium adds parking enforcement on game days and concert nights on top of the usual tollway crash and breakdown volume.

SH-121 and Eldorado Parkway add tollway and commuter volume, and Historic Downtown Square runs its own weekend parking enforcement.

South Dallas & Oak Cliff Private Property in Oak Cliff Oak Cliff is the largest neighborhood in Dallas and Hispanic-majority at roughly 82%, sitting where I-35E, I-20 and US-67 all touch, and apartment-complex private-property tows are a routine part of life here.
