Why people call us

  • A person answers the phone.

    Not a menu, not a call centre. Day or night, you talk to someone who can send a truck.

  • You get the price before the vehicle is hooked up.

    Tell us where you are and where you’re going. We tell you the price. Then we hook up.

  • Flatbeds for AWD, low, electric and luxury cars.

    Some vehicles should not be dragged on two wheels. Ours ride on the deck.

We work with all insurance companies

Tell us who insures you. We call them and get the tow approved, so you are not the one on hold at the roadside.

Been in a collision?

When no one is hurt, here is how it goes in Ottawa, and where the tow fits in. If anyone is hurt, call 911 first.

  1. Get safe, then swap details

    Hazards on and out of live lanes if you can. Exchange names, licences, plates and insurance with the other driver, and photograph both vehicles and the scene.

  2. Report it at a Collision Reporting Centre

    If the combined damage is over $5,000, Ontario law says it must be reported. With no one hurt, you report it at a reporting centre within 30 days, not at the roadside.

  3. Call us for the tow

    We take the vehicle to the reporting centre, your body shop, or wherever your insurer says. We work with all insurance companies and get the tow approved.

Questions people ask

  • Will a real person answer if I call at 3 a.m.?

    Yes. The line at (613) 265-5529 is answered around the clock, every day of the year: nights, weekends, statutory holidays and through Ottawa winter storms.

  • Do I find out the price before you hook up my car?

    Yes. Cost depends on the service, the distance and the vehicle, so tell us those when you call or text and we quote you before the vehicle is hooked up.

  • How fast can you get to me?

    It depends where you are and what the roads are doing. When you call we give you a realistic arrival window up front rather than a number that sounds good on the phone.

  • Can you tow an AWD, electric, lowered or luxury car?

    Yes. We use a flatbed, so the vehicle rides on the deck instead of being pulled on two wheels. See flatbed towing.

  • Can you tow me after an accident or for an insurance claim?

    Yes. We handle collision scenes and will take the vehicle to the body shop, dealership or storage yard you choose.

  • Do you work with my insurance company?

    Yes. We work with all insurance companies. Tell us who insures you and we contact them to get the tow approved. Whether the tow is covered depends on your policy, and your insurer decides that.

  • Can I text instead of calling?

    Yes. Text your location to (613) 265-5529. A location pin from your phone’s map app is the most accurate.
