What we haul

Towing & roadside services

One call gets a truck headed your way. If we can fix it on the shoulder, we will, and you won't pay for a tow you didn't need.

Cars · Trucks · SUVs

Local towing

Breakdowns, no-starts and dead engines towed to your home, your mechanic or the dealer.

Rollback

Flatbed towing

All four wheels off the ground for AWD, lowered, classic and luxury vehicles. No drivetrain wear.

Ditches · Mud · Fields

Winch-outs & recovery

Slid off in the rain or buried in a field road? We pull it out without tearing it up.

Wrecks

Accident towing

Scene cleanup and tows to the body shop of your choice. We work with your insurance company.

Roadside

Jump starts & lockouts

Dead battery or keys locked inside. Most calls are handled in one stop, no tow needed.

Roadside

Flat tires & fuel

Spare swapped on the shoulder, or enough gas delivered to get you to the next station.

Before you call

Get there faster

Questions

Common questions

How much does a tow cost?

It depends on distance, the vehicle and the job. Call us with where you are and where it's going, and we'll give you a price before we dispatch.

How fast can you get to me?

Most calls around Trinity and Decatur are reached quickly. We give you a real ETA on the phone and text you when the driver is close.

Do you work with insurance and roadside plans?

Yes. Many policies and roadside plans reimburse towing. We provide an itemized receipt for your claim. Ask us when you call.

Can you tow my AWD or 4x4?

Yes. AWD vehicles go on the flatbed so the drivetrain isn't damaged.

Do you buy junk cars?

Call us about it. We can haul off a dead vehicle and handle the pickup from your property.

How do I pay?

Card or cash at drop-off.
