New Vehicle Storage Facility (VSF) Release Form Now Required

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation has revised and combined what were previously five separate forms into a single VSF release form, the VSF011-1. The new form replaces the Affidavit of Right of Possession (VSF009), the Notice of Right of Possession for Salvage or Repair (VSF 006), Specific Power of Attorney (VSF007), the Proof of Loss Claim Form (VSF008) and Appointment of Authorized Representative for Inspection of Motor Vehicle (VSF 005).

This form, which has been revised from its original June 14 version, must be completed when releasing a stored vehicle, when allowing access to the vehicle by an insurance adjuster or when allowing access by a representative of the owner.

The new form, VSF011-1, is found on the Towing/VSF Forms page of TDLR’s website, and is coming soon to ADD’s Special Forms.
