Many states require a for towing operations, a surety bond (typically $5,000–$50,000) to protect against wrongful actions, and completion of a state-approved course covering UCC provisions, skip tracing, and de-escalation techniques; for example, mandates 16 hours of initial for recovery agents. National certifications, such as the Certified Collateral Recovery Specialist (CCRS) from the American Recovery Association, provide standardized education on industry best practices and are often required by larger agencies. Tools commonly used include non-destructive lockout kits (slim jims, wedges, and air bags for doors), (GPS) trackers for locating assets, wheel lift tow trucks or flatbeds for transport, and digital skip-tracing software to access and information. The profession emerged in the early alongside the expansion of consumer credit, particularly automobile financing, which originated in 1919 when introduced installment loans to boost post- car sales.

Fictional characters

The Repo Man was a character portrayed by Barry Darsow in the World Wrestling Federation (, now ) from late 1991 to 1993. As a (villainous) , the Repo Man was depicted as a cunning agent who stealthily stole personal items from other wrestlers, often sneaking into locker rooms or ringside areas under the cover of darkness. This persona drew loose inspiration from the real-world profession of repossessing goods, but emphasized comedic absurdity and mischief to entertain audiences during the early era.

Repo Man's feuds often revolved around these thefts, positioning him as a mid-card who irritated top stars through petty crimes rather than direct physical dominance.

Darsow's tenure as Repo Man ended in 1993 when the character was phased out amid creative shifts in booking, leading to his departure from after feeling underutilized in storylines. The gimmick contributed to the wrestling landscape by exemplifying 's experimentation with eccentric, character-driven heels that blended humor with athleticism, influencing later comedic personas in . In October 2025, Darsow released his autobiography Sickles, Studs & Stolen Cars: The Many Faces of Barry Darsow, co-written with Graham Johnson and featuring a by fellow wrestler Eadie (), which dedicates significant chapters to his experiences embodying Repo Man, including behind-the-scenes anecdotes on the gimmick's development and execution. , published on October 10, 2025, provides firsthand insights into how the role affected Darsow's career trajectory and its lasting nostalgic appeal among fans.
