How much does a tow cost in El Paso?
How much does a tow cost in El Paso?
A light-duty tow is a $95 hookup plus a per-mile rate, and $95 is the minimum for any service call. The price is the same at 3 a.m. as at 3 p.m. - no night, weekend, or holiday surcharge. Heavy-duty, RV, long-distance, and specialty transport are priced per job. For nonconsent private-property tows, Texas caps the light-duty fee at $272 under 16 TAC 86.455.
Do you charge extra at night, weekends, or holidays?
No. Dispatch is 24/7 at the same rate. Same-price nights, same-price Sunday mornings, same-price Fourth of July. No surge pricing.
What payment methods do you accept?
Credit card, debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Zelle, and cash. Payment is taken at the drop-off, by the operator who did the tow.
Do you work with insurance or motor clubs?
Yes. AAA, Allstate, Geico, USAA, State Farm, and most major motor clubs route calls through us. Call your insurance or motor club first if you have coverage - they typically dispatch directly and cover the tow.
How fast can you get to me?
How fast can you get to me?
It depends on where you are, what traffic is doing, and which operator is closest when you call. Nobody can honestly promise a number before knowing your location. Call and you get a real ETA for where you actually are, not a script.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole El Paso metro - City of El Paso, the East Side and Horizon, the Lower Valley, the Northwest Valley, southern New Mexico, and Fort Bliss. Fort Bliss gate coordination handled. Cross-border work arranged with our partners at the ports of entry.
Do you respond to freeways?
Yes. I-10, Loop 375 / Border Highway, US-54 / Patriot Freeway, Spur 601 / Liberty Expressway, Transmountain Rd, and the major arterials like Mesa, Montana, and Joe Battle - we cover every El Paso highway. If law enforcement is directing the scene, the tow runs under their process. For private calls on freeway shoulders, we dispatch directly.
What if I break down on Transmountain or out in New Mexico?
We come to you. Transmountain Rd, the far East Side, Santa Teresa, Sunland Park, and the New Mexico communities all take longer to reach, and the operators sent out there carry the right gear. Pin-drop your location or give a mile marker when you call.
Which tow truck does my car need?
Flatbed or wheel-lift - which does my car need?
AWD, 4WD, and all EVs must go flatbed - no exceptions. Wheel-lift works fine for standard FWD or RWD sedans and most trucks. Lowered, damaged, or luxury vehicles should go flatbed for safety. Tell us year/make/model when you call and we route the right truck.
Can you tow my Tesla or EV?
Yes. Every EV needs a flatbed - the drive motors stay engaged with the wheels. We move Teslas, Rivians, Mustang Mach-Es, Lucids, and Hummer EVs regularly. If the battery is completely dead and the transport mode will not engage, we have workarounds.
Do you tow motorcycles and RVs?
Yes. Motorcycles get low-deck flatbeds with soft straps. Class A, B, C motorhomes and fifth-wheels are handled with heavy wreckers. We tell you on the phone what truck is coming.
Can you do long-distance tows out of El Paso?
Yes. Common routes from El Paso: Las Cruces, Albuquerque, Phoenix, Tucson, Lubbock, Midland-Odessa, San Antonio. Long-distance runs are priced by distance and vehicle. Scheduled pickups are preferred so the operator can route a driver efficiently.
Do you offer roadside help besides towing?
Can you jump-start my car?
Yes. The trucks we send carry high-capacity jump packs. If the battery is the only issue, you drive away after a 10-minute idle. If the alternator or battery is bad, the driver tells you honestly and can tow from the same call.
Will you change a flat tire for me?
Yes. The driver brings the tools and swaps the spare. On a freeway, we may recommend a short tow to a safe lot for the swap - freeway shoulder tire work is dangerous and often illegal without a lane closure.
Do you deliver fuel?
Yes. 2-gallon minimum, gas or diesel. Enough to get you to the nearest station. Fuel is charged at cost plus a small service fee.
Can you unlock my car?
Yes for most standard vehicles. Some newer models with transponder keys require a locksmith or dealer; we tell you on the phone whether we can help or you need a specialist.
Will my insurance cover the tow after an accident?
Will my insurance cover the tow after an accident?
Most comprehensive and collision policies cover post-accident towing. Call your insurer right after the tow and we provide a detailed invoice with scene location, reason, and destination - exactly what adjusters need.
Do you coordinate with DPS and local police?
Yes. Accident scenes of every kind get dispatched, and if law enforcement is on scene the operator works directly with the officer on removal and destination.
Can you tow a vehicle to a specific body shop?
Yes. Your car goes where you want it. We deliver to any shop, dealer, or storage across the El Paso metro, and coordinate long-distance delivery to out-of-area destinations.
How does private property and HOA towing work?
Can my HOA or apartment get a private-property agreement?
Yes. The enforcement operators we work with sign Texas Occupations Code Ch. 2308-compliant written agreements with apartment complexes, HOAs, and retail lots across the El Paso metro. Sign audit, patrol schedule, and release procedure are all set out in writing before enforcement starts.
What do I do if my car was towed from private property?
Texas law requires the tow company to provide release info to the vehicle owner. Call us with your license plate and we will help you track down which lot has it, what the release fee is, and what paperwork you need (driver's license + registration in most cases).
