The tow industry is one of the most regulated in the country — lien rules, rotation rules, storage caps, mandatory mailers, retention windows. towyardIQ encodes the rules your state actually enforces. No spreadsheets. No “I think we have 30 days?”
For every state, we encode the notice window, mailing requirements, low-value vs. high-value thresholds, sale-eligibility timing, publication rules, and the title-transfer form your DMV expects. The platform generates state-correct artifacts the day a vehicle qualifies.
For each state we encode:
Police rotation contracts have one rule: don't skip a turn. Most tow software gives you a list and trusts you. towyardIQ enforces the order at the dispatch layer — and produces a defensible audit log for your police-board contract review.
Annual inspection windows, IRP / IFTA registration, DOT number renewals, ELD/HOS records integrated with Samsara & Geotab.
CDL class & endorsements, medical certificates, drug-test windows, MVR pulls. Multi-threshold alerts before expiration.
Garage liability, on-hook, motor truck cargo, and per-vendor insurance tracking with certificate expiration alerts.
State, county, & municipal license tracking. Surety bond status. PUC / TDLR / other state-tow-authority requirements.
State and municipal max-rate enforcement. CA county-level caps. TX TDLR-published max rates. Auto-cap on invoice generation.
Per-state retention rules for photos, notices, releases, & sale records. Automated archival & eligible-for-disposal flagging.
Posting requirements at the yard, fee disclosure, right-to-redeem language, dispute-resolution workflows per state law.
1099 generation for vendors and rotation partners. Sales-tax handling on storage portion (state-specific).
Yard signage requirements, PPE tracking, incident logging, and OSHA 300 reportable-event tracking.
When the pilot opens, we'll walk through every rule for your state with you and your legal team. Your existing rule set, our rule set, side by side. Coming soon.
