Do you tow semis, box trucks or other heavy-duty vehicles?
Yes. Light- and medium-duty towing is in-house: cars, SUVs, pickups, vans and motorcycles, plus box trucks, delivery vans, shuttle buses, work trucks and small RVs. Heavy-duty tows such as semis are arranged through our heavy-duty partner's rotators and heavy wreckers; you make one call to (740) 812-9489 and our dispatch coordinates the heavy tow and stays your point of contact.
How much does each service cost?
Every service page publishes the rate for that job rather than asking you to call for a quote, and the same rate card drives the online quote builder at /quote. A jump start or lockout is $75 plus en-route at $4 a mile from our yard; most local tows run $180–$310 before tax (price ranges at /pricing). Distance, vehicle size and time of day change the total, and dispatch will give you the figure before a truck rolls.
How fast can you get a truck to me?
Dispatch runs 24 hours a day, every day. Most calls inside I-270 are reached in 20 to 40 minutes and outer communities in 40 to 60. We give an honest estimate based on where the closest truck actually is, not a guaranteed time we cannot keep.
