    Sounds like all these complaints come from people that were towed because they parked where they should not have. Grow up and take responsibility for your actions. Blaming the tow company because you got caught is just stupid. Read the signs at the parking lots and stop thinking rules don't apply to you.Dorseys does an excellent job with private parking enforcement, that is why they are contracted by so many HOA's and private lot owners. And a note to Tony F...the damage you show in the picture looks to be many years old. Maybe you should stop hitting parking lot curbs. Oh, but I forgot....blame the towing company.

    Predatory Towing is the best description of their practices. I was unloading my car for my daughter’s wedding and was in an almost empty parking lot next to the Delaplaine Visual Arts Center for 15 or 20 minutes, came back to take her to get her hair done and my car was gone. Construction workers nearby said it was just towed and the truck tore out of the parking lot. Not only that, but their 200 dollar fee is way out of line even with Washington DC rates.

    They also damaged the underside of my car by dragging it across the gravel parking lot. Paint was scrapped off and a piece of plastic was broken off by their careless driver. When confronted by these facts they claim they did not do the damage and are careful. They only lifted it off the ground an inch, no wonder it dragged as the rocks, ruts and holes are a few inches or more deep on the parking lot and not even considering the sidewalk apron. They also said they towed it by the front. That is a load of bull, since the vehicle was parked front in and against a curb in the front. They dragged it out and left the tire drag marks in the gravel where they did so. After by confronted with this fact ‘Mike’ who wouldn’t give a last name said I’d have to call my insurance company and they would call him and get his name. If you screw up, admit it like a man, ‘Mike’.

    These people are practicing what is known as Predatory Towing. I was unloading my company van in a LOADING ZONE, was there less than 15 minutes, came out to get my last box an the van was gone. They clearly were sitting down the street waiting for me to run back inside. Not only that but 200 dollars?!? WAY too high! God forbid someone unLOAD a van in a LOADing zone. What was i THINKING??

    Sidenote - Their office was disgusting and smelled terrible, avoid these people.
