J & D Towing, Oshawa Reviews (6)
My car broke down on the hwy and they were the only ones who could come out immediately and were very reasonably priced!
I called several tow companies to help me out after I dropped my keys in the car as I shut the door. After being locked out for over an hour, J&D towing was the ONLY company willing to help me out. The driver was kind, efficient and arrived a few minutes after he was called.
THE ONLY TOW COMPANY THAT WOULD COME TO ME AND HELP.

paid 10 grand for tow truck was told in good shape motor went 2 weeks later was told to bad for you in short don,t deal with them call bobs towing
I was cut off by this company while he was driving like a mad man thru traffic! Then he throws his yellow lights on and drove around the stopped cars at the red light ahead and on to the sidewalk to get by!! Is it really necessary to put my families life in DANGER cause they are trying to go somewhere so URGENTLY to RIP SOMEONE OFF????
from being a dispatcher for 4 towing companies, i can re-assure you that these prices are accurate. you have to realize that yes this is a business that ALL TOWERS are out to make money. you guys have to realize what the towing was for.. was the vehicle in an accident? in the ditch? a big mess that needs to be cleaned up? waiting time for the police to do their investigation? was it the accident in town or on the 401, meaning was it OPP OR DRP??? all OPP calls are the same price NO MATTER WHAT COMPANY YOU GO WITH, they have standard rates that all towers must use... and yes that is $275 just to hook... doesn't matter if they hook your car and drop 2 feet ahead.. as for the re-hooks if it needs to be moved do you expect it to be done for free?? they should all be brought to the pound unless the owner requests somewhere else.. but to complain about prices... is insane, who goes to work and expects not to get paid?? as for the one who said go with who the police tell you too, like i said if its opp they put out a call on the radio, first one their gets it.. yes ALL tow truck drivers are VULTURES.. so before you go and put negative stuff about people, check it out, call around... most places are the same.. and it all depends with cop gets their first.. DRP is MUCH CHEAPER!! but you cant tell an officer to go away ...
How is this a review of the company? All you are doing is defending your scumbag industry. You say yourself they are vultures, so for reason that justifies outlandish prices?
You don't just have to accept things because "they have standard rates".
I'm not sure if you come for Communist USSR, but you don't have to accept nonsense in my country just because some scumbag tow-truck driver says so. Especially these guys who are lying pieces of garbage at J & D

I think it's about time something is done with the prices that a towing company charges.
Case in point, a fee of $275.00 plus $100.00 milage and an additional charge of $100.00 re-hook up fee was charged to take my car less than 10 kilometers to a body shop after it was involved in an accident. The ironic part is that this towing outfit was not even called they were hanging around like vultures waiting for their prey.

Not sure why these guys are even around , they are not in it to help anything but their own pockets ,I was in a wreck a while back , and they were there swarming like mad jackyls around my car ,quoting me prices before they even found out if I was OK ,assuring me that they were the cheapest company around ,but luckily I had already heard of the so called promise of taking care of their customers only to find out down the road they have charged outrageous prices for an intown tow call ,be warned to anyone who reads these things ,if you are ever in an accident in the oshawa or bowmanville area ( or anywhere for that matter )..DO NOT go with these vultures cause the only things these guys are good for is raping your wallet ! allow the police to guide you to their contract towing company ,you will be assured quality service by them !! I did and was amazed ! ..
