⚠️ Beware of Broker & Scam Websites

We’ve recently seen an increase in websites advertising services in our area that appear to be local companies but are actually brokers or potentially fraudulent operations.

When you Google keywords such as "towing near me", these fake local tow companies will show up. These websites may charge significantly higher prices, collect your information or payment, and then fail to provide the service you expected leaving you out money and still waiting.

Protect yourself: When you need service, contact a local, recognizable company directly. Make sure you know who you’re speaking with, verify the business, and be cautious of websites that make it difficult to determine where the company is actually located.

Best way to know if they are a middleman?
Ask this simple question:
"Where are you located?"
If they are a middle man, they will not be able to give you a street name, city, or even a state. This is a big red flag.
Or ask them what their company name is, they will beat around the bush or give a general name.

Supporting a trusted local company means you know who you’re calling—and who will be showing up at your door.

When in doubt, call local and call direct.

Sub-zero temps are on the way!

We hope you don't have any car problems, but in case you do, it's important to be prepared. Here's a quick refresher on the proper way to jump start a weak car battery.

1. Find the jump-start points on both vehicles, either on the battery or a special spot in the engine compartment, under the hood.

2. Connect the red cable to the positive terminals of both batteries, starting with the inoperable vehicle first.

3. Attach the black cable to the negative terminal of the helping vehicle's battery, then the other end to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis of the inoperable vehicle, away from the battery.

4. Let the helping vehicle charge the inoperable battery for a few minutes.

5. Try starting the inoperable vehicle. Allow more charging time if needed.

Pro Tip: Auto parts stores often offer free battery and alternator testing along with free battery replacement.
