The solution is simple, don't park illegally, they won't tow your car

Not true for Riverside Towing, before you run your mouth do a little research and you will find plenty of examples of them towing people with the proper tags

Like at your apartment complex?

The managers would either be paying for my tow and the cost/time to get my car back and they would be calling Riverside to have them personally deliver my vehicle back where they found it.

It seems to be pretty established (at least here) that Riverside is a bunch of worthless vultures so you need to make the people that sign their checks pay for their screwups if you want any action to be done. The problem is that requires you to play the long game somewhat and do something more than pray that a meteor falls on Riverside's complex.

Company has trucks, trucks require maintenance and fuel.

Company has people, people who drive the trucks and work behind a desk.

Everyone needs to get paid in a business. That's how a business is run.

As for the cost of the tow, a lot of cities charge around that rate.
New York City - $185-370
San Francisco - $194
Houston - $143
LSU - $125

It's all about supply and demand. And cities do usually set boundaries. Riverside might have just gone with the maximum. It's somewhere in the municipal codebook, I just don't feel like sifting through all of it tonight.

Yet, at the same time Riverside Towing has been investigated by the police and been found to be in violation of the law multiple times.

While this may be the case, they're still up and running, correct?

how long have you worked for riverside

White trash cock suckers

THIS chick recently did.....

I'm not defending anyone. It's my belief that everyone is entitled to voice their own opinion.

Also, the companies that have contracts with them like them because they get the job done. If you had someone parking in your spot that was not permitted, would you want that person towed? What if it was covered parking and you had $150 worth of groceries in your car and now you can't park in your designated spot because someone else did.

As long as there is a need for the job, it will still exist.

Not sure the point of your post. Nobody here is claiming that towing companies shouldn't exist, just talking about Riverside's terrible practices.

I live in my own house in NOLA nowadays but when I lived in BR and attended LSU, I lived in an apartment building that was family owned and the old lady who was my landlord (who I knew well after living there for several years) specifically did not have a contract with towing companies because of previous shite that had gone down between them and her tenants. My only real problem was that on LSU gamedays I could not leave my apartment unless I wasn't coming back until hours after the game, because there'd be no place to park. It was a problem that the tenants complained about, but she asked our input and in the end we agreed in the end to not hire a towing company.

Well, I don't park illegally. So I'm not sure how that will happen.

Thanks though
