What are you really paying for when you call a tow truck?
A lot of people look at a tow and think:
“It’s only a few miles.”
But the miles your vehicle travels are only part of the job.
The truck has to get to you first.
At roughly 10 MPG with diesel around $6 a gallon, fuel alone costs about 60¢ for every mile that truck moves.
That’s before:
• Labor
• Commercial insurance
• Tires
• Maintenance and repairs
• Equipment
• Licensing
• Proper securement gear
• The time it takes to load and unload your vehicle
• And the thousands of dollars it takes to keep a dependable rollback on the road
Then there’s the part you can’t put a simple dollar amount on:
Experience.
Knowing how to load the vehicle correctly.
Knowing where and how to secure it.
Knowing how to handle a damaged, disabled, low-clearance, or specialty vehicle without turning one problem into two.
When you call Crosby Towing, you’re not just paying for a few miles.
You’re paying for the truck to come to you, the equipment to do the job correctly, and the experience to get your vehicle where it needs to go safely.
We’re not building our business around being the cheapest tow in town.
We’re building it around being the company you can trust when you need us.
Because anyone can quote a cheap price.
Doing the job right is where the value is.
