Question:
My dad wrecked my car a few months ago, it was totaled and I was told it could never be repaired. Would they still allow me to get my things out of it? Cd player, plates, my dad's belongings (he passed away 1 month afterward) etc?
Answers:
If they are owed money for towing and or storage they might not give it back to you until they are paid. If you don't pay, then after 90 days they can sell that stuff to recoup a portion of the bill.

Word of warning: If your father died because of the accident, ie badly injured in the car, send someone else to get the stuff. And only get what you REALLY want.
Cars where people were badly injured in or died in, stink horribly afterwards and that includes all the stuff in the passenger compartment.

*edit*
If your car is still there, then there shouldn't be any reason to keep you from getting your stuff.
Yes, they should. First, sorry for your loss. It is possible that the car is not there, depending upon if insurance company took posession. If it is still there they may want a storage fee. They should let you get your stuff, two months is a long time in a tow yard. lastly, let me get to a hard fact of life. Things disappear in a tow yard. Sad, but true. Good luck.
Same 98 Malibu with fuel guage problem.?
No. They are holding the car and everything that was in it as collateral against the towing and storage bill. At some point they will auction it off - you may be able to purchase your stuff from whoever buys it, but these folks are not known for their sensitivity.Should we go back to horse & buggy to keep the earth clean?
