About
TowTrapMap was built to help truck drivers and fleets fight back against predatory towing — an unfair practice that costs the trucking industry millions every year in hidden fees, lost loads, and driver downtime.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple
Every report protects the next driver. By crowdsourcing tow trap reports, we turn individual stories into a powerful shared database that protects the entire community.
The Problem We’re Solving
Truckers face unfair towing practices across North America:
- Hidden or unclear signage
- Aggressive tow trucks patrolling high-risk lots
- Excessive release and storage fees
These practices hit fleets hardest, draining tens of thousands in unexpected costs each year.
How TowTrapMap Works
- Drivers and fleets submit tow trap reports
- Reports are moderated and verified.
- Risky zones are added to our live map.
- Fleets will soon be able to export geofences directly into Samsara, Geotab, and Motive.
Why It Matters
Predatory towing thrives in the dark. TowTrapMap makes it visible, so drivers can avoid traps and fleets can save money. Together, we’re building a safer, more transparent trucking community.
