Your vehicle was towed and now you need it back. We tell you exactly where it is, what to bring, and how to complete the release - no runaround, no wasted trips.

Vehicle storage in American Canyon means your towed vehicle is held in a secured, monitored lot where it stays in documented condition until you arrange pickup, most retrievals completed the same day you call with the right paperwork.
Whether your vehicle was towed after an incident on Highway 29, pulled from a private lot, or impounded at law enforcement request, the storage process follows the same steps. The key is moving quickly: daily storage fees start the moment your vehicle arrives. If you also need a vehicle moved to a repair shop, our police towing team can coordinate the full process from scene to lot to release.
American Canyon sits near the Solano-Napa county line, and tows in this area may fall under either county's rules depending on where the tow originated. We know which agency to call, which release forms are required, and how to move the process forward without delays.
If you return and your vehicle is gone, do not assume theft before checking whether it was towed. In American Canyon, vehicles are towed from private lots, public streets, and incident scenes regularly. Storage charges begin immediately, so a quick call to confirm its location can save you money.
California requires storage facilities to notify the registered owner after a tow, typically by mail. The notice includes the facility address, contact information, and what you need for release. Reading it carefully and acting the same day avoids another day of fees stacking up.
Accidents on these corridors often result in a law-enforcement-requested tow to an agency-approved facility you may not have chosen. You may need a release form from the responding agency before the lot can hand over your vehicle - confirming this before you drive to the lot saves a wasted trip.
If an insurance claim, travel, or finances are delaying your retrieval, contact the facility as soon as possible. Leaving a vehicle without communication does not pause the fees. California law also sets a timeline after which an unclaimed vehicle can enter a lien process - staying in touch protects your options.
When your vehicle arrives at our lot, it is logged with a condition report documenting its state at pickup - this protects you if there is ever a question about damage. It is held in a fenced, lit, monitored facility until you are ready to collect it. If your situation involves law-enforcement paperwork, medium duty towing for a commercial vehicle, or a transfer after storage to a repair shop, we handle the coordination so you are not tracking down multiple parties.
We also offer after-hours release for situations where waiting until morning is not practical. We will tell you upfront whether an after-hours fee applies and give you an itemized breakdown before you arrive - no surprises at the gate. For vehicles involved in incidents that also required police towing, we can confirm which release documents you need from the responding agency so you complete the process in one trip.
For any driver whose vehicle has been towed following a crash, breakdown, or impound and needs a monitored, documented holding facility.
For drivers who need to retrieve their vehicle outside of standard business hours and want clarity on any additional fees before they make the drive.
For vehicles towed at police request, where a release form from the responding agency is required before the lot can hand over the vehicle.
For box trucks, step vans, and other medium to heavy vehicles that need a facility equipped to handle larger rigs safely.
American Canyon sits at the southern gateway to the Napa Valley, where Highway 29 carries commuters, wine-country tourists, and commercial trucks through the area daily. Incidents on this corridor - fender-benders, breakdowns, and commercial vehicle problems - generate a steady flow of tows that end in storage, and the volume increases sharply on weekends and during fall harvest season. When your vehicle ends up in storage here, the Solano-Napa county line adds a layer of complexity: which agency's rules apply depends on where the tow originated. We work this corridor regularly and know how to sort that out quickly. Drivers from Vallejo, CA frequently have vehicles towed to American Canyon area lots after incidents near the I-80 interchange, and we handle those releases the same way we do local tows.
Out-of-area visitors traveling up to Napa Valley wine country make up a meaningful share of vehicles that end up in storage here - drivers unfamiliar with local roads, unsure which agency to call, and navigating a process they have never dealt with before. We make it straightforward: one call, a clear list of what to bring, and a facility that is ready for you when you arrive. Customers traveling from Napa, CA and the surrounding area count on us to know the local paperwork requirements and get them back on the road the same day.

Call us or the responding agency to confirm exactly which lot holds your vehicle and what you owe. We give you an itemized breakdown over the phone so you know the tow charge, daily storage rate, and any after-hours fees before you leave the house.
We tell you precisely what to bring: a government-issued photo ID, proof of ownership such as your registration or title, payment, and any law-enforcement release form if the tow was agency-ordered. Showing up with the right paperwork means one trip, not two.
At the lot we walk you through the itemized statement and compare the current vehicle condition to the condition report completed at pickup. California law gives you the right to a clear receipt - we provide one without hesitation.
Once charges are reviewed and the vehicle is inspected, you pay, sign the release paperwork, and take your vehicle. We accept common payment methods and confirm what is accepted when you call ahead. Most releases are completed in under an hour.
We will tell you exactly where your vehicle is, what to bring, and what it will cost - before you make the trip. No surprises at the gate.
(707) 283-3489We confirm exactly what you need before you drive over - ID, registration, payment, and any agency release form. Drivers along the Highway 29 and I-80 corridor should not have to make the trip twice because something was missing.
Companies on the California Highway Patrol tow rotation for the Highway 29 and I-80 corridors must meet the agency's standards for equipment, insurance, and response. That qualification means we have been vetted for the roads you travel most.
Every vehicle arriving at our lot is logged with a condition report before the driver leaves the scene. Your vehicle is stored in a fenced, lit, monitored facility, and we can account for it at any time you call.
One of the most frustrating parts of an unexpected tow is not knowing what you owe. We give you a line-by-line breakdown over the phone - tow charge, storage days, any after-hours fee - so you arrive knowing the total before you see the counter. For information on California storage rate regulation, see the{' '}California DMV at dmv.ca.gov.
Every proof point above adds up to one thing: you get your vehicle back quickly, with no confusion about what you owe or what you need to bring. That matters most when the tow was not your choice.
