After an accident, our car needed a tow. The driver who towed our car was super helpful. He assessed the car damage and suggested where to tow the car based on the damage and where we live. After the shop looked at the vehicle, it turned out that his assessment was accurate. I'm sorry I didn't get his name. I appreciated his helpfulness and expertise during a stressful time.

I have used Advance Towing twice within two days. On Saturday, Oct. 30th, Harvey (a driver) came to my aid and helped me, towing my truck to my home. I used BCAA who first called Drake Towing, who left me waiting stranded for five hours. Drake Towing never showed, so BCAA then called Advance Towing to help me. Harvey came to my aid within 40 minutes and was incredibly helpful, informative and just really kind. Then on Monday, Nov. 1st, I need another Tow to get my car to an auto repair shop. This time I asked for the same company and the same driver. Again, Advance Towing was quick to send a tow

My Volvo died en route to finish shopping this morning with my wife in Vancouver heading to North Vancouver. Died Nanaimo and Grandview heading north.
I called for first time Volvo Roadside Assistance for the first time and 5 minutes later the tow driver arrived on scene.
He not only towed my car that was blocking traffic yet also attempted to resolve my issue. He jump started me which seemingly worked and did not. He then towed my vehicle to the restaurant so we could unload groceries for my wife and he insisted on helping us unload my cargo.
He then towed my vehicle to the dealership and along

I put my groceries away and accidentally left keys in trunk , called this company. They came quick but of course they were making a premium for unlocking my door to get my keys. My fault for not asking how much . Called other companies only to find out this price I paid was the going rate. But did find out there were a few companies charging almost half there price. My fault for not calling around for prices, quick response. Terrible pricing . There price was more than my groceries. Learned a valuable lesson .. my fault

On March 08, 2020 I called my insurance company belairdirect to have my car towed out of the underground parking. To make a long story short, my car was damaged as the car was towed up the ramp out of the garage. The strap gave way and my car rolled down the ramp crashing against the security fencing. As it turns out, Advance Towing did not have any insurance at the time of the accident so I have to pay $500. Seems to me the Advance Towing and bellairdirect are both liable. Time to sue!

STAY AWAY! First, the driver of the tow truck was trying to line up the t-bar lift and forgot to put my car in park so it almost rolled to hit the parked car in front of me on the street. Then when returning to my car, he turned my ignition key when the car was already on. The screeching sound that came from my car made us cringe. He proceeded to take the car to Stan's transmission where I learned the driver did not hook up the car correctly and took this picture. I'm not sure why but he sees this every day so I trust him. The Drive also released the car too soon while on the sloped entrance

Oh 5 Stars and Beyond !
Mo, the owner. Craig, the Tower, Brittney on Phone. All 3 were swift and courteous and helpful and above and beyond in every way. Took a miserable situation, calmed me and took care of everything. And at a completely fair rate that I was so relieved.
Keys at bottom of Pacific Ocean 20 minutes before leaving on an 10 day Boat trip, car now stranded in a Loading Zone at Coal Harbor Marina, I don't live in BC. OMG! What to do? Mo answered my panicked call on Sunday morning and walked through my options, no pressure let me decide and call back. I called

Although it was a slow start (dispatcher said 20 min. wait, was more like 40 min.), the driver did call to adjust the arrival time though, so appreciated that. The tow was from East Vancouver to North Vancouver and the price quoted was the price charged and paid -- for less than what I had expected. Craig, the tow driver, was great; very professional, excellent attitude and courteous. If I ever need a tow again, this is the company I'm calling!

They came within 30 minutes which was the only good part. The guy that came didnt even bother to greet us. He then proceeded to put the tow bar on a weird angle and tried to put it underneath the car while SCRAPING the bottom. He realized it was scraping so he lowered it more to fit underneath. He didnt bother to say anything and once we pointed it out at the shop, he denied it. He called his manager and said his manager would say the same. During the car ride, he was texting and swearing at whoever was texting him. Completely unprofessional. His truck number is 48. Would not recommend this company

After waiting over an hour and a half for a tow trunk and being told over the phone that the tow truck was 7 minutes away, it did not show up. We tried calling Advance back but we were sent to voice mail multiple times. This service is very unreliable. I would recommend going to another Tow Truck company for your car troubles.

You guys get 5 stars tonight. It's been raining and I'm an idiot and put my uhaul 26' on the front lawn. So first I called my BCAA card they said they wouldn't do. Called 3 others and not tonight. I called these guys and he said 25-30 min. It's been 35min total and the driver has come and gone and I'm back to moving. Plus the driver was super nice.

What a horrible company, I called them for a quote to take my vehicle to the auction and they quoted me $70 plus a 10% fuel charge a total of $77, to which I agreed.
When I met them at the auction they told me the bill was $115.
They said it was $70 for the pick up only, I argued and said that the dispatcher quoted me $77, they said that it was $70 Plus Plus.

No one likes tow trucks. I get that. I have been on the receiving end of the few. Worse is that I hate calling a tow truck on someone, however, we knocked on all the doors of every building to try and find out whose car was parked in our spot. Of course we couldn't find the person, therefore, we had to call these guys since they were one of the few to pop up on the Google search. Of course the guy saw his car being towed and came running out. The tow truck driver could've thrown us under the bus and rated us out that we called him but instead he just pointed out that the guy should&apos

I needed a boost on the sea to sky highway. I happened to have a business card for Advanced Towing. I phoned and was patched through to some dope head who was just waking up (at 1:30 in the afternoon). He said he would be there in about an hour or so. While I was waiting he phoned me like 4 times to complain about his life (as if I care). When he finally showed up. He looked like a wannabe biker, skin head (I guess that's to be expected). His eyes were bugging out of his head and he was talking a mile a minute and wouldn't shut up. I think he was on something. He had a bad vibe about

A d-oh! moment: firmly locking the car door only to realize the keys are not in my hand. I never knew it before, but in these situations, if you don't have a auto club membership, you can call a towing company to come rescue your keys. The tow truck came within about 20 minutes, and the friendly driver did his magic with the wedge and wire to open the door so I could retrieve the keys. All for the low, low price of $47.25.
Although I was really pleased with the service, I feel weird about giving too high a rating to a company that might tow me someday down the line. It could happen.
