What we handle
Breakdown towing
Car quit on the road or in the driveway? Flatbed to the shop of your choice — your mechanic, not ours.
Accident towing
After the police report, your car needs to get somewhere. We tow to your shop or home, not a storage lot with daily fees.
Jumpstarts
Dead battery at work, at home, or in a parking garage — jumped and tested so you know if it'll die again.
Lockouts
Keys in the car, engine maybe even running. Damage-free entry, faster than you'd think.
Tire changes
Spare on, or a tow to the tire shop if the spare's flat too. No lectures about checking it sooner.
Junk car towing
That project car that never got started — hauled off the property, title questions answered.
Richmond knows where cars die
The Bryan Park interchange where 95 meets 64. The Powhite toll plaza backups. Broad Street at rush hour. A parallel spot in the Fan that took twenty minutes to find and one dead battery to ruin. Breakdown geography is local knowledge, and it's why dispatch that actually knows Richmond beats a national app sending whoever's somewhere within forty miles.
The price comes first
Towing has a reputation problem, and it's earned — hook fees, mystery mileage, storage charges nobody mentioned. We run it the other way: you get the price on the phone — hook plus loaded miles to your destination — before any truck moves. Roadside jobs (jumps, lockouts, tires) are flat rates. The number you hear is the number you pay.
Frequently asked questions
How fast can a tow truck get to me in Richmond?
Depends on where you are and the hour — city-center calls are usually quickest, and we dispatch 24/7. You'll get an honest ETA when you call, not a 'twenty minutes' that means an hour.
Do you tow to any shop I choose?
Yes — your car goes where you say: your mechanic, the dealership, or your driveway. We don't steer tows to a shop that pays us.
What does a tow cost in Richmond?
A hook fee plus per-mile for the loaded distance, quoted as one number on the phone before dispatch. See the towing cost page for how the pieces work.
Can you tow from a parking garage?
Low-clearance garages are a real constraint for flatbeds — some levels we can reach, some need a wheel-lift or a push to the exit. Tell dispatch it's a garage and which level, and we'll send the right equipment the first time.
Do you handle motorcycles or AWD vehicles?
Yes — flatbeds are the right answer for both. AWD vehicles should never be dragged on two wheels; that's how transfer cases die.
