If the vehicle is not a repossession and is in fact a law enforcement impounded vehicle, in California the answer is, NO. The law in California says "we towing companies" must allow you to pick up your property, however, we are only going to give the property to the legal owner of the vehicle.

What are the state laws for vehicle repossession in Maryland?

AnswerI have recently learned that the Department of Finance regulates collection agencies as well as finance companies. I was emphatically told that in a vehicle repossession, the towing company/repo company cannot, repeat, cannot charge a separate storage fee for your personal belongings. They belong to you. If you are told that they can charge for the goods, the goods, under the credit law means the good that can be repossessed under the loan which is the vehicle or the home, not the personal belongings. Call your local Consumer Protection agency to get help. I know this is the law in Maryland for a fact. It took me 30 days, but I am going to pick up my personal belongings tomorrow and I do not have to pay a storage fee for them.

Can repossession companies in Missouri charge a fee for the retrieval of your own personal belongings?

No matter what you had in the vehical, it's probably gone if there was any value to the items. I would suggest you move on and forget about it. You should have paid your note or worked something out w/ lender. You are the one to blame Yes repo companies can charge you a processing fee to get your personal belongings back in missouri. LAME answer above by some do gooder lecturing you - The fact is that repo companies may not keep any of your personal belongings and are required to bag it, list it and insure it - this is the reason for the fee. Btw - Most everyone has bad circumstances sometimes and gets down on their luck. Just keep pushing ahead.
