Is private property towing legal in Texas?
Yes, when done right. The Texas Towing and Booting Act (Occupations Code Chapter 2308) requires a written agreement between property owner and tow company, compliant signage at every entry under San Antonio City Code §19-391, the required notice before towing, and specific release procedures under City Code §19-54. Every step gets documented in writing before enforcement starts.
Do you work with HOAs?
Yes. HOAs are the most common private-property client. The enforcement operator audits the existing signage, updates the parking rules with the board, and sets a patrol schedule that fits the community. Board members do not make the call - dispatchers do, per the agreed rules. That keeps the board out of personal liability.
