I have gotten my car back from them due to them using illegal "staging areas". Their latest staging area is the little baptist Church on Brightside, near the Fire Station. I have gotten towed a couple of times from my apartment complex because my windows are tinted so it is tough to see my parking sticker. Every time it happens I just walk down the street to the Church, mull around on the sidewalk for a minute, then once the tow truck goes to arse rape another innocent and hop in my car and go about my business

I spent a lovely evening in EBRPP one night due to Riverside towing.

why are y'all hating on neal?? seems like you'd be on his side over the predator towing company. who cares if he's making money if he's making them squirm.

This! upvote sir. Similar tactics to when i was a student at ULL. i paid for parking and would sometimes sit in my car and do homework. Almost every other day i would watch the tow trucks tow away cars literally 5 mins after the person parked. This was why i was only parked for an hour.Who knows how many they got in a day. I say its time to shut this type of stuff down. Not saying all of it is wrong but having trucks patrolling a parking lot every few minutes needs to stop.

Quality wise, probably 6/10. Mattress pads were all in decent shape and the blankets hadn't lost any of their scratchiness. Breakfast sucks, but the rest is decent

I could hardly imagine. I had to bail out a buddy for a DUI when I was at LSU 2 years ago, and that place smelled like arse and feet, even from the counter where I posted the bail.

They keep the A/C at 48 degrees and trustees constantly mop, so it smells clean in the back. Just as loud as anywhere else though

I honestly wonder why more people don't just beat the frick out of these thieves. We need someone who can get off due to insanity just unload on one of their thugs as they try to tow a car. Scare the ever living shite out of them.

They are usually armed and are very quick to let people know. I've seen what you're talking about happen twice

I'm not a lawyer, but if someone is illegally towing you, wouldn't that be theft of property with a weapon? I feel like you could get off on a technicality.

try getting towed from your own parking spot, at your apt, when you have a tag in the correct spot...... That is the shite people are pissed about with Riverside. Being parked legally, and getting towed.


I have never experienced that, or known anyone to experience that and i lived at an apartment complex for 5 years that Riverside went to every night.

I'm not trying to say these towing companies don't do illegal things, i just think idiot college kids make shite up a lot of times when they do something wrong and can't admit it.
Someone is usually telling these guys to come tow people. Get mad at your apartment complex, or the parking garage people that made them come out and tow people.

They would complain if there was a sign in every single parking spot. A lawyer would cherry pick the shite out of it, like the contract part previously discussed, to make an issue out of it. This is the age of, the rules don't apply to me and if you dare correct me your an evil bootlicker.


this is how you see what riverside is doing?

The only good thing about Riverside Towing is climbing the I beam and going up under the Mississippi River Bridge.

If Black Lives Matter wanted to use its insanity and ignorant rioters for good, they'd go take over the Riverside lot and send their employees into hiding.

yeah, back in like 1998 or 99 a buddy of mine on liquid courage was about to try and fight to get his car back. The tow truck driver pulled out a 44 magnum. We ran like scared little bitches.



One time years later I almost rammed the gate and stole my car out of the lot. I lied to get to my truck, started it and was going at the gate when this dumb arse drunk, who rode in my cab for free got in front of the gate to stop me. I slammed the brakes and left my truck there running and hurried up and went out past the gate.

Called someone else to go get my truck the next day.

I wouldn't have cared had I just been charged with ramming the gate, but I wasn't about to hit anyone.
That was my last time being towed. September 2005. I was parked legally at an apartment I was staying at.
