A car accident towing and storage can last anywhere from two hours to seven days. This is dependent on the severity of the accident, the location of the accident, and the availability of tow trucks. For example, if the accident is on the highway and there are no tow trucks nearby, it may take longer for the car to be towed. Additionally, if the accident is in a remote location, it may take longer for the car to be transported to a storage facility.
The amount of time a car will be towed and stored depends on the circumstances of the accident. If the car is totaled, it may be towed to a salvage yard and stored until it is sold or scrapped. If the car is repairable, it may be towed to a body shop and stored until it is repaired. In some cases, the car may be stored by the insurance company until the claim is settled.
n most states, the car must be towed to a licensed towing facility within a specified amount of time, usually within 24 hours. The car may then be stored at the towing facility for up to 30 days, after which it must be either sold or returned to the owner.
