How much does it cost to get a car out of impound in Canton?
A plain-English guide to impound and storage costs in Canton: release fees, daily storage, the paperwork you need, and how to get your car back for less.
Why impound & storage fees costs what it does in Canton
Across the outer ring the controlling schedule is Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5, which caps a non-consensual tow of a vehicle at or under 10,000 pounds at $228, storage at $33 a day with the first 24 hours free, and notification charges at $91. O.C.G.A. Section 40-11-1 treats a vehicle left 30 days as abandoned.
How we work Canton
Canton is the Cherokee County seat, sitting on the Etowah River where I-575 runs its northern miles before the interstate ends and the road continues toward the mountains. That position makes it a long-haul town: a breakdown here is often a haul of thirty-plus miles back to a metro shop, not a short tow. Riverstone Parkway carries the main retail and commercial traffic, and Highway 5 and Highway 20 feed the interstate. Winter is the wildcard on this end of I-575, where treatment capacity is thin and a single ice storm can strand vehicles on the grades. Georgia's DPS sets the ceiling on a standard non-consensual tow at $228, with no storage fee for the first 24 hours, and the private-property signage rules under O.C.G.A. 44-1-13 apply to any lot in the county. The operator we send covers the I-575 corridor, Riverstone Parkway and the downtown square, running a flatbed for the long recovery south and a wheel-lift for the local call.

Common Canton cost questions

For a vehicle at or under 10,000 pounds the tow is capped at $228, storage at $33 a day with no charge for the first 24 hours, and total notification charges at $91. Ask the department or lot that ordered the tow which fees apply to you.
What do I need to get my impounded car back in Canton?
Bring valid photo identification and proof that you own the vehicle, usually the title or a current registration, plus a lien release or a notarized authorization if you're claiming it for someone else. A private lot operating under Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5 must post its retrieval address, its cost of recovery and its accepted payment methods on its required sign. Every lot sets its own exact list, so call the one holding your car and ask before you drive over.
What happens if I don't pick up my car in Canton?
Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5 charges no storage for the first 24 hours, then up to $33 a day, so the earlier you claim the car the less you owe. O.C.G.A. Section 40-11-1 treats a vehicle left 30 days as abandoned. Call the lot or department that ordered the tow to confirm the total before you go.

What we can do is help you work out who has it and what the process is, and line up an operator to move it once it's released. Call (678) 379-5984.
