A plain-English guide to impound and storage costs in Fenway & Kenmore: release fees, daily storage, the paperwork you need, and how to get your car back for less.
Why impound & storage fees costs what it does in Fenway & Kenmore
Inside Boston the numbers are published and they are not ours. The City of Boston tow lot at 200 Frontage Road charges $90 to tow and $3 per hour of storage up to a $15 daily maximum. A street-cleaning tow is different: it is run by a private company at $108 plus $35 a day at that company's lot. Before you go anywhere, look up the plate at cityofboston.gov/towing/search, which covers the past 15 days, or call 617-635-3900. Bring a valid driver's license, the plate number, and proof of active registration and insurance.
A Fenway tow inside the city goes to the City of Boston lot at 200 Frontage Road. Look it up at cityofboston.gov/towing/search, entering three characters of the plate, which covers the past 15 days, or call 617-635-3900, and 617-343-4629 if you do not know your plate. The city fee is $90 to tow and $3 per hour of storage up to $15 per day. To release it you need a valid driver's license, your license plate number, proof of active registration and proof of insurance, and the city takes cash, a money order, a cashier's check or a debit or credit card with a 2.5% fee on cards. The lot is staffed Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM, with automated kiosks around the clock. A street-cleaning tow is different: a private company holds the car at its own lot and charges $108 plus $35 per day, so confirm which kind of tow it was. On the 81 Fenway Park home game days the resident district tows aggressively, so a game-day car is very likely a city tow you can find in the lookup.
How we work Fenway & Kenmore
Fenway and Kenmore live on the Red Sox calendar. There are 81 home games, and on each one the Fenway resident-parking district carries a $100 fine for parking without the right permit, with posted game-day tow zones that get cleared before first pitch. Northeastern sits on the southern edge and the Longwood medical cluster on the other, so student turnover and hospital traffic pile on top of the ballpark. Permits here are free, zone-specific and good for two years, but they do not cover a snow emergency or a meter. A city tow lands at 200 Frontage Road, $90 to release plus $3 an hour up to $15 a day. The operator we send reads the game schedule the way the drivers here have to, and works the breakdown or the lockout around it.

What do I need to get my impounded car back in Fenway & Kenmore?
For the City of Boston lot you need a valid driver's license, your license plate number, proof of active registration and proof of insurance, and all charges paid; the city accepts cash, a money order, a cashier's check, or a debit or credit card with a 2.5% processing fee. A suburban impound sets its own list, so ask the department that ordered the tow what it needs before you drive over.
What happens if I don't pick up my car in Fenway & Kenmore?
Storage at the City of Boston lot accrues at $3 an hour up to $15 a day, so calling early costs less than calling late. Redeem the vehicle with a valid driver's license, the plate number, and proof of active registration and insurance; the city takes cash, a money order, a cashier's check, or a debit or credit card with a 2.5% processing fee. If a car sits unclaimed it can be treated as abandoned under state law, and the owner still owes the charges, so the clock is worth watching.
Can Quick Tow Boston get my car out of impound in Fenway & Kenmore?
No, and it's worth being straight about that. We connect drivers with private tow and roadside operators; we aren't the city lot, the town or the police department holding your car, so we can't waive anyone's fees or release it faster. What we can do is help you work out who has it and what the process is, and line up an operator to move it once it's released. Call (857) 858-5057.
