See who's nearby, who's open right now, and who runs the right truck for your vehicle - then call them directly. No call center, no middleman, no markup.
The right tow starts with the right equipment. Compare local towing companies by what they actually run - flatbeds, wheel-lifts, heavy wreckers, rotators - and call the one built for your vehicle and your situation, the first time.
The safest ride for AWD, EVs, luxury and collision-damaged vehicles - your car travels, its wheels don't.
Semis, buses, RVs and equipment. Rotator and landoll operators for the jobs a pickup can't touch.
City-to-city and state-to-state transport with per-mile rates you can compare before you book.
Post-collision towing, scene clearing and insurance-compatible paperwork - know your rights before the tow.
Wheel chocks, soft straps and operators who know a dropped bike is not just another load.
Ditches, snowbanks, mud and soft shoulders - recovery specialists who pull you back to pavement.
A dead battery, a flat, keys dangling in the ignition, an empty tank ten minutes from home - these are 20-minute fixes for a mobile roadside unit, and they cost a fraction of a tow. Hundreds of the companies listed here run dedicated roadside fleets alongside their trucks.
Before you assume the worst, check the company's profile: if it lists battery boosts, tire changes, lockouts or fuel delivery, ask for the roadside rate first. A boost that gets you to work beats a tow to a shop that finds nothing wrong.
Pick your state and city to see the operators who actually cover your roads - including the small-town one-truck outfits the big apps never list.
Pick your state and city, or jump straight to the service you need. Companies are ranked by rating and review depth, with 24/7 operators flagged.
Profiles are built from each operator's own published information: equipment, coverage area, hours, and what they actually specialize in, so you know before you call.
We're a directory, not a dispatcher. No call center in the middle, no referral markup: the number on the page rings the company's own line.
Towing in the U.S. is typically a hook-up fee plus a per-mile rate, and both vary by state, vehicle and time of day. This estimator runs on real published rates we collected from towing companies in every state so you can sanity-check a quote before you say yes - especially after an accident, when you're in no state to haggle.
Rule of thumb: a local daytime tow for a sedan runs $100–$250 in most American cities. Long distance, heavy vehicles, winching and 2 a.m. calls cost more - and impound release fees are a different animal entirely.

Most local tows for a car or SUV run $100–$250: a hook-up fee (typically $75–$125) plus a per-mile rate ($2–$4). Heavy vehicles, winching, storms and after-hours calls cost more. Many states and cities cap non-consent towing rates - always ask for the total before the truck is dispatched.
Usually, yes. Apps and call centers add referral fees. Every number on Towing USA rings the company's own dispatch - you pay their rate, not their rate plus a middleman.
After an accident, towing from the scene is generally covered under your collision claim. Breakdown towing is only covered if you added roadside assistance to your policy or carry a plan like AAA. Keep every receipt either way.
From private property (a plaza, an apartment lot) - yes, if signage meets state and local rules. From a public street, only police or parking enforcement can order it. If your car vanishes, call the local non-emergency police line before assuming theft; they log all authorized tows.
A flatbed carries the whole vehicle on a deck - required for AWD vehicles and most EVs. A wheel-lift tows with two wheels rolling on the road: faster and often cheaper, but only for the right drivetrain. When in doubt, say what you drive and let the dispatcher choose.
In cities, 30–60 minutes is typical; 24/7 operators flagged on our listings often quote 30 or less. In storms, expect multiples of that - which is why the winter guides exist.
Pick your state, pick your city, and call the top-rated 24/7 operator on the page. That's the whole process.
