Due to me being foolish to lock my keys in the car and cold weather battery issues I have used Standish twice this winter and all of the drivers are professional and nicest people especially when things go wrong. Haven't used their towing service but if something thing ever happens to my car while in the Bow Valley these are the guys I would turn to! Thanks so much to Larry for helping me out today

Unfortunately we hit some ice and went down a very steep embankment and got wedged in some trees. Francis is my hero! I feel this guy went absolutely above and beyond to help us out. He is very good at what he does!! Because we had Ama it didn't even cost us a penny 🙂 Can you please pass onto Francis Jen and Alex said Thanks again, we made it and we ♡ him. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone stuck and needing a tow or a winch outta the ditch

Eli showed up & saved the day! (I should say night).
Ran out of gas on the Icefields Parkway (not knowing the only gas station between Jasper & Lake Louise was closed Oct 1-Apr 1) & coasted into the Bow Lake parking lot.
Eli was professional, friendly & courteous.
He showed up within the time stated & followed us back to Lake Louise to be sure we arrived safely!
Highly recommend Eli & Standish Towing & Recovery!
Thank you 👏🏼 for the roadside assistance!! 😊

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality
Took a while for the tow truck to get to us due to boundary challenges between Jasper and Banff. We were out of cell service area north of the Columbia Icefields but when the driver Mitch arrived he was very professional. Delivered us and our puppy and travel trailer to our campsite in Banff and the truck to Canmore.

This towing company helped me in a very bad situation as my car had broke down due to an alternator problem while I was on a hike in canmore. We were staying in Airdrie and as every mechanic shop was closed around us so we had to tow all the way back to Airdrie. They were very flexible with the situation and helped us with AMA too. Our tow truck driver Jesse was very friendly and kind about the situation considering we didn't know the long haul we were in for.

We lost the only existing key to our car while skiing with our young child and because it was a holiday (with helpful places like dealerships, who can cut a new key, closed), we had no choice but to get our car towed back to Calgary.
It was a stressful afternoon as the hill closed down and we were stuck there waiting with a hungry kid. We were incredibly grateful for our driver, Jesse, who was VERY fast to arrive, friendly, and willing to take our vehicle almost 160 km to get it safely home. He beat us to our house and found a safe spot to drop the vehicle, despite mountains of snow on our street

I would like to thank Francis for the winch service on my work truck. It looked to me to be an impossible task. 12,000 lbs of truck embedded in the snow on a switchback driveway with a very steep road grade. At first sight he called it a "situation". I was very impressed with how he took charge and the way he directed his team. I could tell it was not easy. You have a very valuable employee with great problem solving skills. In the end, the price was fair. Thanks again Francis and thank you Standish!

This was one of the best experiences in terms of customer service, niceness, politeness, and just plain being professional and helpful! It was a Sunday, we had been having some weird experiences with the Altima locking and unlocking ad litem.....And when it decided to do it on its own sometimes it would turn all the accessories on too, so after a day of sightseeing we return to the car in the little but absolutely stunning community Of Banff in the province of Alberta in Canada.
Here on Sunday other than tourist attractions it's quiet and conservative.
Banff is a resort town in the province

We were stranded in the middle of nowhere on 93 and Dave came to the rescue. He went above and beyond in every way! He gave us recommendations for mechanics nearby and drove us through downtown Banff on the way to the shop to show us what was within walking distance. Not to mention he had a super friendly personality, which actually made the two hour drive in the tow truck cab an enjoyable experience. He even took the extra time to make sure our storage basket on the hitch didn't scrape the ground as he loaded/unloaded our truck from the tow bed. This guy is a pro!

If I could make this less than one star, I would. Let me just say that keys got locked inside the car and we had to wait for someone to come and help unlock our car. I understand customer service is a hard enough job but the person that came and helped with our car was completely rude upon meeting him. A Chinese man that didn't even bother to introduce himself. What he said to us was "You should have waved your hand, I drove around once" in the most rudest tone I have ever gotten from someone that works in customer service. And I have worked in retail. First of all, once is not enough
