Legal Question in Business Law in Maryland

tow truck companies

Is it illegal for a tow truck company to search out vehicles to tow, even if my apartment complex has a contract with the towing company? I was under the impression that the tow company had to be called for a particular vehicle to be towed, and my leasing office was not open when the vehicle was towed.
