Yes. Under Nevada law (NRS 487.560), you have the legal right to retrieve personal belongings from a repossessed vehicle without paying the full redemption amount. Tow yards must allow you to access personal property within reasonable hours, typically charging a $25-50 administrative fee for the retrieval service.

However, most Las Vegas tow yards require notarized authorization if you're not the registered owner or if there are title complications. This protects them from liability claims. Common scenarios requiring notarization include:

• Co-borrower retrieving property when primary borrower is unavailable
• Family member accessing belongings on your behalf (requires notarized power of attorney)
• Property disputes between joint owners or divorcing spouses
• Business vehicles containing company property (corporate authorization letter must be notarized)

⏰ Critical Timeline: Nevada tow yards typically hold personal property for 30-45 days after repossession before disposal. Storage fees continue to accrue, so retrieving belongings quickly saves money. Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides same-day tow yard notarization service throughout Las Vegas and Henderson, meeting you on-site to notarize property release authorizations.

📋 What You Can (and Can't) Retrieve: Personal property includes clothing, tools, car seats, electronics, documents, and personal effects. You cannot remove permanently affixed equipment (stereo systems, GPS units, custom wheels) or items that are part of the vehicle's secured collateral. If disputes arise, notarized affidavits documenting ownership of contested items may be required.
