I have a security risk to my home and after several weeks of still not having my key back which I had to give to the Unlimited Security Doors to make coppies they owed me from Nov. they now are stonewalling me and not answering their phone,(305-626-4747) they were supposed to mail them to me over 10 days ago and so far no keys!! It worries me that my keys are out there when they should be in my possession. Do you have any suggestions as to how to get these people to answer me, the man is Aldo by the way.

MIAMI BEACH (CBSMiami) – Residents and visitors alike may soon have to shell out even more cash if their vehicle gets towed on Miami Beach.

Currently, the two truck companies which have contracts with the city charge more than $200 to return the vehicles. Oh, it’s a cash only business. It breaks down to $115 per tow, plus a $30 administrative fee, $30 after-hours fee, $25 labor fee and $5 per mile fee, adding up to an average tow of $205, according to CBS4 news partner the Miami Herald.

Those rates have not changed since 2004. But Tremont Towing and Beach Towing say they can’t make it anymore at those levels and have asked the city for an average increase of $64 per tow.

According to the paper, Tremont and Beach Towing are believed to make $2.5 million a year handling 14,000 police and parking department tows. Additionally, under the city’s law, private condo associations, hotels and businesses can only use Tremont or Beach Towing to remove violators in their lots. For each tow, the city gets $25.

A vote of the City Commission could happen Wednesday.
