- Fuel Delivery Service: Ran out of gas near the Phoenix Zoo entrance or on your way to South Mountain? We’ll bring enough fuel to get you to the nearest gas station.
Specialized Towing Options
We operate a diverse fleet to handle various vehicle types and situations:
- Flatbed Towing: Ideal for luxury cars, all-wheel drive vehicles, or motorcycles, flatbed towing ensures your vehicle is fully off the ground, preventing any additional wear or damage during transport. This is often requested for vehicles near Gammage Auditorium or for sensitive equipment.
- Light Duty Towing: Most passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks fall into this category. Whether you’re stuck on Scottsdale Road or need a tow from a parking garage near the ASU campus, our light duty trucks are equipped for the job.
- Heavy Duty Towing: For larger vehicles like commercial trucks, RVs, or buses, our heavy duty towing capabilities ensure we can manage the weight and size safely and effectively. We’re equipped to handle these larger jobs that might occur on major thoroughfares like the US-60 or I-10 passing through Tempe.
