Emergency Towing in South Lake Tahoe, Done Right
Emergency towing means a real person answers, a truck heads your way, and your vehicle gets moved somewhere safe. Up here that often means snow, ice and steep roads, so our trucks carry chains, winches and recovery gear. If the problem can be fixed where you are, like a dead battery or a flat, we will tell you so you do not pay for a tow you do not need.
