Towing costs depend on the type of vehicle, the equipment needed, and the service provided. Cars are usually easier and cheaper to tow, while SUVs might need dollies or a flatbed tow truck because of their size or all-wheel drive. Flatbeds are the safest option for towing larger or heavier vehicles.
For short tows, the cost is around $3.50 to $4.50 per kilometer after the first 6 kilometers. For heavy-duty towing, the rate is charged hourly, with a 2-hour minimum since bigger trucks require more time and specialized equipment.
At Towstar, we offer fair and competitive rates. For light-duty tow trucks, our prices start at $65 with 24-hour notice. Regular rates begin at $89, which includes the process of loading and unloading your vehicle. Need a flatbed or medium-duty tow truck? These options are priced based on the type of vehicle and service required, ensuring you get the right equipment for the job.
Fuel surcharges may apply depending on the distance, and GST (5%) is added to the total. Whether it’s a quick tow or a big job, Towstar is here to help with transparent pricing and reliable service.
