Description of service

This service was for towing my motorcycle 35 miles. My bike broke down and would not restart while I was at work. I live approximately 35 Miles from my work and the total cost of the tow was $60.00 flat. The towing company brought a flatbed truck and the tow guy hoisted my bike up with straps and chains. They brought my motorcycle to my house and parked in my drive way.


Review of Service

This was a good service that I hated to pay for. If I had a pick up truck I would not have had to pay for this. A family member of mine does have a big pick up truck, but was unavailable at the time I needed a tow, so I had to pay the sixty dollars to get the bike home. The tow truck guy was nice enough, and he was very gentle with my bike. I only had to wait about a half hour for the tow truck to show up after I called them.


Tips

Get a friend of family member to help you tow it. That way all you have to pay for is the gas. Most bikes will fit in the bed of a pick up, so if you have that option it will be much cheaper.
