Overview

The rates listed in the fee schedule are part of the Tow Zone Pilot. The fee schedule is provided to authorized towing companies operating under contract with the Ministry of Transportation.

Authorized towing companies that are under contract for restricted towing zones must:

  • show their identification to customers upon request
  • provide customers with the fee schedule and other information materials

About the fees

The fee for each towing service is listed under the “base rate” column.

Services with a per-hour base rate are based on a one-hour minimum for the first hour.

After the first hour, the rates are calculated in 30-minute increments. The 30-minute increments will be rounded up and prorated according to the base rate.

Inclusions

For fees related to vehicles and/or equipment, the base rate includes driver and operator charges.

For fees related to disablements and impoundments, the base rate includes preparatory work, hook-up and 10 kilometres of towing.

Storage

The storage base rate is based on the calendar day starting at the time of arrival of the vehicle, equipment or load at the storage site. A partial day counts as a full day.

An after-hours fee of $60 will apply if you require access to the storage site when it is not open for regular business.
