Thank you to American Towman for planning the American Towman ShowPlace – Las Vegas from April 22-24 at the South Point Hotel Exhibit Hall & Arena. This gathering of towing professionals and vendors that support the towing industry is an extraordinary opportunity to meet, mingle, network, and learn about critical topics and trends in the industry.

Stop by our booth (D6 booth) to learn more about how to make sure you comply with the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA). This federal law is not widely understood by the towing industry and can lead to severe penalties and costs for noncompliance. It does not matter if you operate your business in California, Massachusetts, Florida or Idaho, the SCRA applies to you and your lien auctions and sales of impounded vehicles.

We are prepared to meet with you in person at ShowPlace and discuss the steps you can take to protect you and your towing business. Learn about verification of active-duty military service, key indicators of military service you can identify when impounding a vehicle at the request of a private property owner or a law enforcement agency. Our SMD compliance professionals will be in attendance and can answer your questions accurately and quickly.If you cannot make it to Las Vegas, don’t worry.
