Private Property Impounds Oklahoma City
Protect your property with a legal, reliable and professional impound service. We enforce parking rules, remove unauthorized vehicles and help property owners maintain control of their lots.
Why Private Property Impound Is Important
An unauthorized vehicle sitting on your property is more than unsightly, it is a headache that grows every hour. It blocks spaces, scares off customers, invites complaints, and can create safety or liability issues if it leaks fluids or becomes a target for vandalism. You did not sign up to babysit other people’s cars, you signed up to run your property.
That is where our Private Property Impound service comes in. We remove unauthorized, illegally parked, or abandoned vehicles quickly, legally, and with full documentation so you can focus on running your business or property, not policing parking.
At Five Star Towing, we specialize in private property impounds across Oklahoma City, offering property owners, managers, HOAs, apartment complexes, and businesses a fast, no-nonsense way to reclaim their parking. We handle the red tape, the documentation, and the heavy lifting, so you get your lot back with minimal disruption.
A single unauthorized vehicle can cost you in many ways:
- Lost customer parking, fewer sales, and negative online reviews
- Angry tenants or residents who can no longer park where they pay to park
- Safety hazards from vehicles blocking fire lanes, dumpster access, or drive aisles
- Liability if the vehicle leaks oil or is used for illegal activity while on your property
- Administrative time spent calling owners, leaving notes, or trying to enforce rules
Property managers tell us the same thing again and again: the problem is not the car, it is the time and distraction that follows. We take that distraction off your plate, handling everything from the legal checks to removal and storage, all in compliance with OKC regulations.

Common Questions We Get Asked.
A vehicle typically qualifies for impound if it is parked without permission on private property, blocking access (driveways, dumpsters, fire lanes), occupying a reserved or assigned spot, plainly abandoned for an extended time, lacking registration or license, or present in violation of posted parking rules. Local ordinances and the particulars of the property’s signage can affect eligibility; we help you verify.
Often yes, but it depends on the city code and the type of removal. Many OKC property impounds require visible, legally compliant signage stating that unauthorized vehicles may be towed at the owner’s expense. If you lack proper signage, we will advise you on how to comply or suggest steps to remove a vehicle under emergency or safety conditions.
Yes, that is the point. We remove vehicles without forcing managers to confront owners. We do require property owner or authorized agent approval before impound, and we handle notification and documentation afterward to make the process legally sound.
Typical response is same-day or next-business-day depending on when you call, location, and whether any legal waiting periods apply. For safety hazards, fire lane blockages, or emergencies we prioritize immediate removals.
We supply photos of the vehicle at the scene, time-stamped notes, VIN and plate data, tow authorization records, a removal confirmation, and storage receipt. This documentation supports enforcement actions and defends against disputes.
You should verify that the vehicle is unauthorized, confirm you have the right to authorize towing for that spot, and ensure signage or prior notice policies are in place if required. If you’re unsure, call us and we will guide you. We also recommend logging repeat offenders for enforcement programs.
The vehicle owner contacts our storage facility, proves ownership with ID and registration, pays towing and storage fees, and any fines required by local rules. Once verification and payment are complete, we release the vehicle per our legal procedures.
If the vehicle may be stolen or linked to criminal activity, contact the police first. We coordinate with law enforcement and follow their instructions regarding custody and storage. We do not release vehicles to owners until cleared by the police when an official hold exists.
Typically the vehicle owner pays the tow and storage fees upon retrieval. However, property managers can elect to pay the removal fee and pursue restitution through parking fines or collections if desired. For commercial accounts, we offer billing options and account terms.
Treat these situations carefully, follow your lease or employment policy, and document the violation. We recommend a notification step before towing when the vehicle belongs to someone associated with the property, unless immediate safety or legal reasons require removal.
That depends on ownership and easement rights. If you control the easement and have legal authority, removal may be possible. If it is a public right-of-way, contact the municipal authorities. We advise on each case and coordinate with authorities when necessary.
Storage rates vary, but we provide a clear daily rate at intake and an estimate of expected total costs. For long-term storage of oversized vehicles, fees may be higher. Commercial accounts can negotiate storage arrangements and release procedures.
We document vehicle conditions before the tow with photos and notes. If damage occurs during our documented, professional tow, we handle claims through our insurance and cooperate fully with the vehicle owner and property manager to resolve the issue. Our crews are trained to minimize risk, and our equipment is maintained to industry standards.
Yes, for many larger vehicles we have the equipment or can coordinate a heavy-recovery rig. Capacity depends on access, vehicle weight, and local restrictions. We will evaluate and advise on the best removal method.
We provide full documentation and a clear chain of custody. If an owner disputes a tow, we review the records, photos, and authorization. Often disputes are resolved quickly with evidence showing the vehicle was in violation. For complex cases, we assist property owners with records for legal defense.
Yes, we remove vehicles from private garages and enclosed lots when authorized, but access considerations may require special equipment or temporary measures to safely extract the vehicle.
If the owner appears before the tow is complete and provides proof of ownership, we can pause and resolve the issue on site, subject to property rules. If the tow is already underway, the release process still applies at our storage lot.
Yes, but we follow safety and legal requirements. Night removals are common for safety issues, but extra care is taken for lighting and secure operations.
