Vehicle Impound
JJ Hogan Towing operates a secure, professionally managed impound facility where vehicles are stored after authorized removal. Whether it’s due to illegal parking, police-directed towing, or private property enforcement, impound services ensure that vehicles are held safely and legally until they are released back to their owner.
What Is Vehicle Impound?
Vehicle impound refers to the legal process of towing and storing a vehicle at an authorized lot due to violations such as illegal parking, police seizure, abandonment, or other circumstances that require temporary or long-term vehicle holding.
Vehicles that are impounded can only be retrieved by the registered owner (or someone with legal authority), and fees must be paid in full before release. Impound services are typically linked to local enforcement efforts or private property towing situations.
When Do You Need It?
Vehicle impound becomes necessary in situations like:
Cars towed at the direction of local law enforcement or the City of Danville
Vehicles parked in violation of posted signage on private property
Abandoned or unclaimed vehicles on commercial or residential lots
Tows following arrests or traffic incidents where the vehicle must be secured
Repeat offenders ignoring parking policies on managed properties
Impound ensures there’s a secure, traceable process for handling these vehicles legally and responsibly.
