Here are the fees that can be charge legally for a tow i n Massachusetts.
Although there are maximums muicipalities are urge to negotiate a lower rate on behalf of the citizens they serve. That being said here is what you can be charged:

Coomercial vehicle-all other vehicles different from above......
Max tow for vehicle/motorcycle tow $90.00
Second tow when needed $90.00 because the expenses are considered the same
If tow truck is at scene of involuntary tow(police tow) for more than one hour it is allowed to charge $35.00 per one half hour for every one half hour increment over one hour.
