Yes, typically you must pay the towing bill to retrieve items from your vehicle. Most towing companies require full payment for any fees associated with towing and storage before allowing access to your belongings. However, some jurisdictions may have specific regulations regarding access to personal items, so it's worth checking local laws or contacting the towing company for clarification.

If I do not have a bill of sale how do I obtain a title for a vehicle that I bought from a towing company that's still in previous owners name and towing company won't transfer the title?
If the towing company sold you a vehicle, they must have a title or a magistrates bill of sale. If they sold you a vehicle without one of these, then they sold you something that wasnt theirs to sell you. You will have to take them to court to get your money back. Call them and let them know what your intentions are and they will probably come up with one or the other instead of going to court.

What happens when a car is totaled before the title is transferred?
It sits in a towing impound lot for 20 dollars per day awaiting an insurance "adjuster" to review so he can knock 20% off it's fair market value. Once the vehicle is delivered to a salvage yard, the title transfers if clear. Otherwise the insurance check goes to the lienholder, which is required to cash and send the difference ( equity, if any ) to you, or bill you if you owe more than it's worth. Owners also have right to view, photograph and retrieve "un-attached" personal items. You cannot take anything from the vehicle that requires a tool to remove. You can take your radar detector & GPS, but not your stereo, wheels or speakers. You may not remove the battery, tires, filters, brake pads, nor anything which would have 'disabled' the vehicle from operation before the accident ( not even light bulbs or wiper blades )..
