Repo trucks are essentially the same as a tow truck or flatbed tow truck. They are used to repossess vehicles for non-payment. They have a larger engine, reinforced frames and hydraulic lifts that are needed to tow another vehicle. Repo trucks, depending on the size and tonnage, may require a commercial drivers license to operate.

Yes. If he has a repo order, it is no longer YOUR truck.
As a nyc repo man myself there really aren't any certificates for repo agents, If you use a tow truck then you need a cdl lic. If you are just an investigator no other license other than a NYS Drivers license is needed

This is based on where the repo is done (what State and Country) What the contract between the towing operator, bailif and lender as well as the law in the Jurisdiction the repo takes place. Then how many miles, where the semi is stored and how long. Also how difficult was the repo? Was the unit surrendered to the lender? or did the lender have to sneak out with tow truck and repo it the hard way? A tractor that is surrendered at the lenders storage facility may only cost $1000 If they had to track down the unit and repo it the hard way $3000 to $5000 is common. And no it isn't $5000 for driving it away. That includes bailiff fees towing skip tracing auction costs etc.
In some states but not all. Each state has its own requirements. Some require a license to repo. Some require a collections license. Some prohibit previously convicted felons from obtaining licensure or certificates to do repossessions. Some reuire only insurance. Contact your states licensing bureau for details in your individual state or the states in which you hope to work.
