Massachusetts H4981 mandates notification of automobile lien holders about towing and storage costs.
Massachusetts H4981 amends Chapter 255 of the General Laws to require garages to notify lien holders of towing and storage costs. If a vehicle is not claimed by the owner or lien holder within 21 days, the garage owner may sell the vehicle. The garage owner must then notify the lien holder of the sale proceeds, charges, and any remaining balance. The bill ensures transparency in the process of handling and selling involuntarily towed vehicles.
