What an impound release receipt shows
When a car is towed to a private tow yard or vehicle storage facility, the owner pays the tow, storage and impound fees to get it back and receives a release receipt. It records the vehicle and VIN, when and why it was towed, the storage days, each fee, the payment and who the vehicle was released to, with a signature. This impound receipt follows the stock vehicle storage receipt used by Texas storage facilities, with fees at the state's published maximums.

FAQs
How much can a tow yard charge in Texas?
TDLR sets maximums: $272 for a private property tow of a vehicle up to 10,000 pounds, and $22.85 a day for storage and $22.85 for the impound fee at a vehicle storage facility.
What is an LAPD repo receipt?
In California, a repossession agency must report a repossession to local police, and the owner may need the police receipt for that report before the car is released. That is a police document; this template is the tow yard's own payment and release receipt.
Can a California tow yard refuse a credit card?
No. California Vehicle Code 22658 requires lots to accept cash or a valid bank credit card and to post a notice saying so.
Are the example details real?
No. The tow yard, license, plate, VIN and card are fictional.
