The problem our townhouse complex has with always towing is that they are always towing illegally. Three years ago Berrada properties related our parking lot which resulted in every units spaces being reassigned and eliminated by one in which, since the 10yrs I have lived here we have had assigned parking spaces and NOT once in those 10yrs has ANYONE vehicles has been towed for parking in a space that wasn't assigned to them. Last year I even called Always towing and informed them someone was parked in one of my spaces and I had nowhere to park, always towing informed me then that they wouldn't be able to tow the vehicle because it has a designated sticker to be parked in this lot and that I just had to find some where else to park. I also have been contacting Berrada Properties often regarding this issue and never received an response. I was I forming them that Everynight I get home from work there's this car parked in my spot and that they would take care of it, a few months ago I got rid of my other vehicle and pleaded with them to switch the spot(#40) that I was paying for to my regular spot #8 since I still have this on going issue. Now always towing has towed Several units vehicle's stating that they are parked in the incorrect spaces in which everyone has been parking in the same spots for over a year and always towing has came out numerous times and towed vehicle's within this time frame but NEVER for this reason. Also the fact of over charging renters because they want to tow more vehicle's at once, so who ever vehicle is put on the flatbed get charged 100$ more than the car they are towing on the same truck and saying that they had to use special equipment is the reason which I know is a lie because of how often the use to tow my other vehicle and NO special equipment was never needed it was just who vehicle got picked up first and that's not fair in pricing. Always towing is illegally towing and over charging. ******************Always Towing & Recovery, Inc. Response

*************. Was spoken to several times and got emails responses from Always Towing. We are contracted to patrol the lot for parking violations per the management company. ************* received several notices from his property management company which is located on site where he lives 5 days a week. Notices about towing have been going out to the tenants from management since March 2023 per management and we did not start patrolling til July 1st of this year. Multiple signs are posted on the property. We have explained this several times so here is another response to ************* getting his vehicle towed. ************* is now claiming damages that he admitted on a recorded call that the vehicle was already having issues and he was waiting to get issues fixed prior to towing. Always Towing takes your complaint seriously and investigate all consumer concerns thoroughly to uphold the integrity of our business. Because we do investigate all complaints, false, slanderous, and defamatory claims and/or statements will be prosecuted.Review from Mary V

I have further evidence to show that the my vehicle was towed while it was parked with a permit and sticker in my assigned parking spot. My Condo association had formally met with a representative from Always Towing to convey their disapproval and inform them in writing that my vehicle was to be written without charge. Always towing refused to return my vehicle. Always Towing sent me a certified letter advising me to pay or my car be be auctioned off. When I tried to pickup my car, I was told the amount was over $500.00 and that payment has to be in cash. After 13 days Always Towing charged me $665.00 to return the vehicle. The company forced me to sign documents I didn’t agree with by holding the vehicle as a ransom. I was forced to incur transportation expenses while my car was held hostage. Always Towing has and is violating their agreement with my condo association, several local and state laws along with some federal laws. At this time, my car is in for service to make sure everything is running since the manner they towed the vehicle left visible marks and damages to my driveway way.

I am a current tent from Berrada Properties, LLC. They had my car towed based off the fact that it did not have a sticker that said Berrada properties on it. 2am March 19,2022 my car was taking on 37th and wells to Always “********” Towing. Where I had to retrieve my vehicle that morning at 9am and pay the ** ridiculous amount of $348.19. It’s **** right highway robbery. They had my for less than 12 hours. And I have to pay that **** ridiculous *** price of damn near 400$. Praying on the ones that have to live paycheck to paycheck. I will also in the near future contact a lawyer to see if have a case against these illegal acts.
