How much does it cost to get a car out of impound in Roswell?
A plain-English guide to impound and storage costs in Roswell: 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 Roswell
A non-consensual tow off private property in North Fulton 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. O.C.G.A. Section 44-1-13 requires the lot to be signed and forbids automatic patrol.
Roswell is in Fulton County, so a county impound is released from the Fulton County Marshal admin office at 185 Central Ave SW downtown, (404) 612-5100, not from the yard. A tow from an apartment or retail lot on GA-9 is a private-property tow under O.C.G.A. 44-1-13, which requires a posted sign within 50 feet of each entrance and a written contract with the property owner, and the Georgia DPS Tariff No. 5 caps the tow at $228 and storage at $33 a day, with no storage for the first 24 hours.
How we work Roswell
Roswell sits in north Fulton County along the Chattahoochee, with GA-400 running its eastern flank and Roswell Road, GA-9, carrying traffic north through the heart of the city. Historic Roswell and the Canton Street district anchor downtown, and Vickery Creek and the old Roswell Mill draw weekend traffic to the river. Most breakdown and crash work here happens where GA-400's exits feed the surface arterials and back up at rush hour, and along the Holcomb Bridge Road corridor that links the highway to the river. This is an affluent, off-street-parking market, so the mix leans toward flatbed requests for newer vehicles, lockouts and jump starts rather than heavy impound volume. The private-property side runs through the apartment and retail lots on GA-9: under Georgia law those tows need a posted sign within 50 feet of each entrance, a written contract with the property owner, and no active patrol trolling for cars. There's no storage fee for the first 24 hours, and the state caps the tow itself. Fulton County impounds are released from the Marshal's admin office downtown rather than the yard, which trips up drivers who show up at the wrong address. The operator we send covers GA-400, Roswell Road and the Holcomb Bridge corridor, with flatbed for anything low or newer.

Common Roswell cost questions
How much does it cost to get my car out of impound in Roswell?
A non-consensual tow off private property in Roswell 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 Roswell?
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 Roswell?
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 Roswell?
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.
