We're always interested in trying something new! Even a double-decker bus is no match for our heavy-duty truck!

This one was a while back - and everyone was fine!
If you or someone you know has a vehicle that has been affected by doing donuts in a gravel parking lot with tires that are nearly as bald as a bowling ball, help and support are available to you by calling 907-247-6481. We're happy to come assist!

The auction is tomorrow! You can arrive as early as 9am, and the auction starts at 10!

The next auction is coming up soon!

Whether you're on pavement or 70ft off the road, we've got the equipment and know-how to get your vehicle picked up safely!
When you need assistance, you want to call the pros to avoid extra potential damage! 907-247-6481

Video sped up x2 for the sake of short-term entertainment, but only 3 minutes and 30 seconds from hooks on, to back to a tow-able position!

PRO TIP: Using the right equipment and the proper anchor points in any scenario will make sure you don't damage your vehicle (or someone else's) any more than it already may be after an accident, as well as avoid personal injury.

🎆 Happy 4th of July from our team to yours! 🇺🇸
Hope you get some good time with family, a plate of something off the grill, and a great view of the fireworks tonight. Proud to be part of this community!

Your car and the guardrail don't need to be introduced, but if they do - we'll come pick it up!

Anyone remember where this happened?

🎆 4th of July Parking Reminder 🇺🇸

A quick heads-up for everyone celebrating this Independence Day!

Please be aware of temporary parking restrictions and no-parking zones during the holiday festivities. We want everyone to enjoy the fireworks, parades, and celebrations—not come back to find their vehicle has been towed.

Have a safe, fun, and happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸🎇

Hi, folks! This is the first of TONS of times you will see this in the coming days FOR THE GRANT AND MAIN PARKING LOT ACROSS FROM THE POLICE STATION.

Physical Signs will also go up on the fencing at the parking lot Monday, but each and every year there are a small handful of vehicles who choose to park in the lot across from the police station and let their vehicles remain-and we cannot reach those vehicle owners.

You will not win a free pass because you have not read the posted signs ( #1 cited excuse in 2025), and we certainly do not want you to "win" a bill from tow trucks.

Our goal every year is no tows. Seriously, what a bummer on a holiday weekend

**Please share this far and wide, because we need to allow our Fourth Fest Vendors to access the area and set up.**

Thank you all so very much for helping to make this 2026 Fourth of July Fourth Fest amazing.

Tuesday Throwbacks

Living in Ketchikan means we've seen:
Cars stuck in mud.
Cars stuck in snow.
Cars stuck in places that had neither mud nor snow.
Some talents are truly impressive!

Let us know if you need us to come pick up the pieces after your adventures!
