That covers police-ordered tows, crash scenes and private-property tows. Light duty, up to 10,000 lb: $100 max (includes clearing the debris). Medium or heavy duty: $350 / $450 max (plus up to $55 an hour after two hours). Owner shows up in time: $0 or half (free if not hooked; half the fee if hooked but not towed).

My car went off Transmountain Road and is sitting below the roadway. What should I tell the operator?
Tell the operator how far below the road the vehicle sits, because vertical drop uses winch line faster than flat distance. Give a pin drop or GPS coordinates if you can.

The operator quotes the recovery before starting work.
