What Is Impound Lot Recovery?
Impound lot recovery is the process of retrieving a vehicle that’s been towed and held at a City of Calgary impound lot, whether it was towed for parking violations, an expired registration, an accident, a traffic stop, or unauthorized parking on private property. Once your vehicle is released by the facility, it still needs to get to your home, a repair shop, or wherever it’s headed next. That’s where we come in.
As your Calgary tow truck service, we pick up your released vehicle from the impound lot and deliver it safely to your chosen destination, using the right truck for your vehicle type every time.
How Impound Lot Recovery Works
Call the impound facility first
Confirm your vehicle is there, check the fees owed, and find out what documents you'll need.
Gather your documents
Most Calgary impound lots require valid photo ID, proof of ownership (registration), valid insurance, and payment for outstanding impound and storage fees.
Settle the fees and get the release
Pay the impound facility directly to release your vehicle.
Call KTC Towing
Once your vehicle is cleared for release, we dispatch a tow truck in Calgary to pick it up and transport it wherever you need, home, a repair shop, or a storage location.
We handle the transport
Flatbed, wheel-lift, or heavy-duty, we match the right truck to your vehicle for damage-free handling.
Response Times You Can Count On
Our dispatcher always gives you an honest, updated ETA. Every KTC Towing truck is GPS-tracked, so we send the closest available driver, not whoever’s next in a queue.
Most Calgary neighbourhoods, most hours of the day.
Snow, rush hour on Macleod Trail or 16 Ave, extreme cold.
Every truck tracked, so the nearest driver reaches you first.
What to Do Until We Arrive
If your vehicle is drivable, pull onto the shoulder, into a parking lot, or onto a side street away from moving traffic.
Even if you've already stopped off the roadway.
If you're stopped on a highway shoulder. Exiting into live traffic is more dangerous than waiting inside.
With your exact location. A cross street, highway marker, or nearby landmark such as a gas station, mall, or interchange is enough for us to dispatch fast.
Only if you can do so safely and are not near moving traffic. Otherwise, stay put and wait for our driver.
