Why impound & storage fees costs what it does in Duluth

Gwinnett private-property tows run under Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5, the same statewide cap: $228 for a vehicle at or under 10,000 pounds, $33 a day after a free first 24 hours, and $91 in total notification charges. O.C.G.A. Section 44-1-13 gives the driver the signage and no-patrol protections.

Duluth is in Gwinnett County, which runs its own impound and sets its own fee, so call the department that ordered a police tow. A car in the wrong space at a Pleasant Hill complex is a private-property tow instead, governed by O.C.G.A. 44-1-13 signage rules, and the Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5 caps a non-consensual tow of a standard car at $228 and storage at $33 a day, with no storage for the first 24 hours, so a driver here knows the ceiling before anyone hooks the car.

Local context

How we work Duluth

Duluth sits along I-85 in western Gwinnett, built around Pleasant Hill Road and the old Gwinnett Place Mall district. Peachtree Industrial Boulevard runs the length of the city, Sugarloaf Parkway crosses the north side, and the Pleasant Hill exit off I-85 is one of the busiest interchanges in the county. That mix of interstate, big-box retail and dense apartments is the towing engine here. A stall on I-85 at rush hour is highway recovery; a car in the wrong space at a Pleasant Hill complex is a private-property tow under Georgia law. Gwinnett is the metro's largest Hispanic county and Duluth runs about a sixth Hispanic, so every page on this site, the quote form included, is published in Spanish, in the Mexican-American and Central American register: carro, grúa, corralón. Georgia's DPS Tariff No. 5 caps a non-consensual tow of a normal car at $228 and storage at $33 a day, with no storage charge for the first 24 hours, so a driver here knows the ceiling before anyone hooks the car. The signage rules in O.C.G.A. 44-1-13 apply to every apartment and retail lot in the city. The operator we send covers I-85, Peachtree Industrial and the Sugarloaf corridor, wheel-lift for most jobs and flatbed for newer or all-wheel-drive vehicles.

Duluth pricing FAQs

Common Duluth cost questions

How much does it cost to get my car out of impound in Duluth?

A non-consensual tow off private property in Duluth runs under Georgia DPS Maximum Rate Tariff No. 5. 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 Duluth?

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 Duluth?

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.

Can Quick Tow Atlanta get my car out of impound in Duluth?

No, and it's worth being straight about that. We connect drivers with private tow and roadside operators; we aren't the pound, the county or the police department holding your car, so we can't waive anyone's fees or release it faster. 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.
