Towing & Impound Management — one system for the dispatch desk, the impound lot, and the billing that follows both. Built inside a working towing operation, released as free software. (Around the shop, we just call him Tim.)
What it does
TIM covers the job from the first phone call to the paid invoice. Nothing here is theoretical — every feature exists because a dispatcher, a driver, or a bookkeeper needed it.
Every call on one board, updated live on every screen in the office. Assign a driver and it's on their phone.
Take a call, type in the pickup, and quote a real price while the customer is still on the line.
Track every vehicle on the lot, what it owes, and when it can release — with the fee schedule your state requires.
Send invoices one at a time or in batches, keep account statements straight, and see who's behind at a glance.
Drivers get the day's calls on their phone, with a push notification the moment a new one is assigned.
Sales tax, commissions, lot aging, AR aging — the reports your bookkeeper and your state actually ask for.
Installs with Docker on a modest server. Use Google Maps, or run entirely on OpenStreetMap with no API keys at all.
Standard PostgreSQL under the hood and an AGPL license on top. If you ever want to leave, you take everything with you.
TIM runs the day-to-day at a working towing & recovery operation in Eastern Washington. It dispatches real calls and bills real accounts, every day.
Three ways to run it
We host TIM for you, keep it updated and backed up, and set up your rates, fee schedules, and accounts. You log in and dispatch. One predictable monthly bill.
Your server, our setup. We stand TIM up, move your data in, configure it for your operation, document everything, and hand you the keys.
Clone it from GitHub and run it yourself, free. If you get stuck, you can buy a few hours of our time.
Pricing is simple, and we'll tell you up front — just ask.
