I was parked in a visitors spot with my visitors tag hanging from my mirror. That should be enough for you to move on about your business, but no, they towed me. Because my tag was expired. What they didn't know was I had a medical emergency and was in the hospital for a month. I was going to finally be able to get it fixed that weekend (they towed me middle of the night Thursday or early Friday morning). I called and they said ...did you know your tag is expired. I said yeah that's why it's parked. They said "oh" they don't care they just want to make a quick 160. On top of it they tried to pretend they were closed when my friend took me to get it. Trying to get me to pay extra to have it sit over the weekend. We had to keep calling the number and have someone open the storage. The sign said I still had two more hours until closing. I don't have 160 laying around, especially with what I'm going thru with my medical incident. And because this happened, I can't sleep at night. I'm on anxiety medication now just to relax and sleep here. I don't even come home that much any more because I'm so disgusted. I pay all this rent for a place I'm hardly living at because I'm scared the stress from the chances of getting towed again, even though I got the car fixed. If a medical emergency happens again, I can't take the chance of my car not being here just because someone is shady and wants to make a few bucks. Never have a had this problem until I moved here. I can't wait until my lease is up. I will never ever live in manassas again. People have nothing better to do than find any sneaky loophole just to make a buck off of already poor people. We live in manassas. It's not like we're rolling in it! And thanks for the months of sleepless nights and the added medication I don't need...so not worth it.
This company is no good. Do not do business with them. The drivers are very disrespectful. The manager Dennis is a coward. Towing cars is one thing but stealing from people's lively hood is another. Driving through neighborhoods they have contracts with like a bat out of hell. Not watching for children driving way over neighborhood speed limit. This company is a scam. They do nothing but steal from hard working people. I can't believe this company is still in business. They either need to close down or wipe clean of all the nasty disrespectful drivers and staff.
This is the second time that they have towed my daughter's car. Each time they waited less than the required hour by state law. Every interaction with the staff has been met upfront with anger and distain. They​will not admit to thier mistakes and further more seem to be proud to rip of a struggling kid. I would equal them to pond scum.
On July 30, 2015 DTR Towing stole my vehicle from an unmarked parking space while I was on an emergency service call leaving me standing at my client's house with a handful of tools. After running down possibilities of who may have stolen my vehicle from an unmarked parking space, which by the way has no warning signs, permit required signs, or if you are towed call........, or anything else of this nature.
After my client made a few phone calls while I was on the phone with the police, we found out that it had been stolen by DTR Towing in Manassas.
So off we went to DTR towing to retrieve my truck. DTR towing charged me $160 for a vehicle that they stole. I presume the $125 was for the towing as neither of the two boxes were marked either for towing or impound), and another $35 for a storage fee. A storage fee? We were practically right behind them. Nothing had to be stored! It is a 10.39 mile trip that takes approximately 15 minutes!
I was towed for a vehicle breakdown in the middle of winter and it only cost me $70 to be towed from Fairfax to Manassas! Now, they were a great towing company and I used them again to move my vehicles when needed!
The vehicle sat at the dealer's lot for a week and they charged me nothing! Here, according to my receipt, my vehicle was stolen at 8:10 pm and I picked the vehicle up at 8:46 pm. $125 for towing and another $35 for a 36 minutes vehicle hideout? Really? Really?
When my vehicle was released by someone behind the counter, I was told that I was towed because I did not have a parking permit and that my State Inspection was out of date. Since when did the state of Virginia make DTR Towing an "Authority Having Jurisdiction" and bless them with the authority to tow a parked vehicle with an out of date inspection sticker.
When the tow truck driver didn't see any signs posted about parking permits or towing announcements, where was his common sense???? The vehicle was not illegally parked by any stretch of the imagination!
I have a great distaste for unethical people and businesses with unethical business practices and no morals.
What DTR Towing did was exactly that.
It is a towing company like DTR Towing of Manassas, Virginia that gives other good towing companies a bad reputation. Come on DTR Towing clean up your criminal act! Go get real tows where people are illegally parked or are needing vehicle assistance and stop stealing service vehicles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
