What Laneo does for Dallas-Fort Worth communities
Guest lots that earn
Guests pay an hourly rate you set after free hours from their host, so busy guest areas from Uptown to Arlington bring in revenue.
Permits in English and Spanish
Residents register their plate from an invite in either language. The plate is the permit.
A record for every tow call
Your licensed partner checks plates against the same list, free of charge, and every lookup is saved with the time. Patrol partners also get close-match flags.
An 80-space guest area, at an example $2.50 an hour.

Dallas: tows are reported within an hour
Dallas requires a towing company to notify the police department and get a tow number within one hour after it removes a vehicle from private property. Dallas City Code §48A-40Dallas: a written agreement with your towing company
In Dallas, the property’s towing agreement must say whether towing is allowed 24 hours a day, seven days a week or only during business hours. It’s renewed at least every two years and whenever the property changes owners. Dallas City Code §48A-37Dallas regulates towing and booting
The city’s Transportation Regulation division oversees tow services (chapter 48A) and booting (chapter 48C). A driver towed from an apartment complex is told to look for the property’s signs, which name the towing company.

Towing and parking rules to know in Texas.
Checked October 2026. This is a summary, not legal advice. Your property and its towing company are responsible for following the rules.
Tow-away signs at every entrance
Before towing based on signs, Texas requires a sign at each entrance to the parking facility, with the days and hours of enforcement and a phone number answered 24 hours a day. Texas Occupations Code, ch. 2308Towing companies are licensed
Towing companies and vehicle storage facilities in Texas are licensed and regulated by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. TDLR towing programDrivers can ask for a tow hearing
A driver who thinks a tow was wrong can ask for a hearing at a justice court in the county where the car was towed. The deadline is short: generally before the 14th day after the tow, not counting weekends and legal holidays. Texas Occupations Code, ch. 2308Parking rules go in the lease
If an apartment complex has towing or parking rules, tenants get a copy before the lease is signed, in a paragraph titled “Parking” or “Parking Rules.” A change mid-lease needs written notice first. Texas Property Code §92.0131A permit lasts as long as the lease
A parking permit a landlord issues to a tenant runs for the lease term and can’t be ended or suspended before the tenant’s right to live there ends. Texas Property Code §92.0132Cities can set stricter rules and lower fees
A towing company can’t charge more for a nonconsent tow than the state maximum or a fee set by the city or county. Cities and counties can also add requirements to the state’s towing rules. Texas Occ. Code §§2308.2065, .208No money from tows for property owners
Property owners can’t receive anything of value from towing companies for towing from their property. Laneo doesn’t pay or receive anything for tows either. Texas Occupations Code §2308.401
