The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation posted proposed rule changes affecting tow trucks, operators, and vehicle storage facilities on March 31, with a public comment deadline of May 11, 2026, according to the TDLR rulemaking notice. Operators who want input into how those rules are written have 34 days remaining to submit written comments through the TDLR portal.
Operator takeaway
TDLR rule changes become binding on operators once adopted — the comment window is your only formal opportunity to push back or flag unintended consequences before the rules take effect. Pull the rulemaking notice from tdlr.texas.gov and review what is being changed.
