16 Tex. Admin. Code § 86.1002 - Technical Requirements - Towing Company Records

(a) General records to be maintained. Except as provided in paragraphs (1) and (2), every towing company shall maintain at a principal office in Texas all records and information required by the department.

(1) Texas firms. If a towing company wishes to maintain records at a location other than its principal office in Texas, the towing company shall make a written request to the department. A tow company may not begin maintaining records at an alternate location until the request is approved by the department.

(2) Out-of-state firms. A towing company whose principal business address is located outside the state of Texas shall maintain records required under this section at its principal office in Texas. Alternatively, a towing company may maintain such records at an out-of-state facility if the towing company reimburses the department for necessary travel expenses and per diem for any inspections or investigations conducted under these rules.

(b) Preservation and destruction of records. All books and records generated by a tow company must be maintained for not less than two years at the towing company's principal business address.
