We called hoping for a quick tow to the dealership without having to worry about a long ETA. Sam was quick to arrive and fast to hook up. Very friendly to boot! Isnt that exactly what you look for in a tow company? An overall amazing experience from first call to drop off. I absolutely recommend A1 Towing. I will be using them in the future for our company. Thanks, guys!!!!

Getting my Truck back with damage caused by the tow of my vehicle, Sam- the owner - nicely said that he would have it promptly taken care of for me.Over 2 weeks and 5 unanswered messages later and this company has gone silent.Will have to look into small claims, AAA customer service or local media for help.Be cautious with this team

I was driving in the right lane and the driver almost ran me into another car passing me on the left because he decided to use the exit lane to pass me. He veered into my lane abruptly and I had to slam on my breaks and swerve, in the rain, to avoid an accident. The right headlight was also out. Under no circumstances would I trust this company with my vehicle.

We had an axle break on a 14 box trailer on rt 85. They were the only tow company that would help us and we called about 8 before finding this company. They were there fast and allowed us to stay in our rv at their business lot to await a mobile mechanic. So grateful we found them.

This place is a complete scam. I’ve had my drivers 18 wheeler booted not to long ago, and they charged over $2000K to take off the boot. Driver parked for five minutes on the side of the road, got permission from the Chinese restaurant to park and pick up his food. A-1 Towing clearly didn’t understand. I am thrilled the attorney general is going to shut this place down!!!!

I needed towing to a car repair shop. The driver went above and beyond for me! I had originally told him to take my car to one repair shop, but when we got there it was cash only. He called a repair shop he knew up the street and they got me in. He made me feel very comfortable. He was very prompt in picking me up initially too.

Very surprised with some of these reviews because everything about my experience with this company was great from the initial phone call to the dropping off of my vehicle at my home. The man who answered the phone who I believe to be the owner had a great sense of humor and quoted me a great price; almost half of another quote I received. I must also say another company that was too busy recommended this company. Thank you to them! The driver, David, was on time with great communication, conversation, and service. I highly recommend this company.

...my starter gave out on me @ the worst possible time. Dispatch was friendly & quick. They came & towed my car out of a crowded Target Parking deck, on a Sunday, in the rain & Made it seem like childs play. Got it to my destination without any issues. To top it off, the price was IMMACULATE in contrast to other companies. I dont look to request for a tow often in the near future, but theyll definitely be my 1st choice going forward. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

TWO DAYS AGO, The guy forgot to get the key back from me to take to (with my vehicle) auto repair shop. He told me that he was on his way back TWO DAYS AGO. I Still havent heard from A-1 towing. I dont have a car, and he is supposed to come back to get my key, and getting it the auto repair shop. No work is done yet, because I still HAVE THE KEY UGH.

NC Attorney General has their eye on them for predatory towing. Beware! This is not a professional operation, if there is such a thing in the tow biz.

They are a rip off and will act on a tow request without the proper authority. If I could give them 0 stars I would. I filed a BBB claim against A1 Towing earlier waiting on a response. Long story short they towed my vehicle per the request of the non homeowner when I had permission to park my vehicle in her driveway. Had A1 really cared about ethical business practices they would have rejected the request. But because they only seem to care about money they picked up the vehicle regardless and then charged $500 to release my vehicle... on top of that they stated they could only take CASH!.... I spoke to the owner of another towing company in Charlotte and they were outrage with the whole situation the price and the fact A1 didnt get permission from the property owner. Be ware of A1 Towing . Last thing the manager Tammy I tried to work with seems to be avoiding me and giving me the run around that she cant reach the driver that towed my vehicle nor can she break down the $500 fee that I was charged. The receipt doesnt say anything but $500.... you have to show a break down when you charge someone that kind of money. Crooks!!!!

Should have option for no stars. Got no service. My mom was in the side of the road in the rain Aline tonight. These people said that they were on the way but no one showed up. They even ignored her calls after the initial call. Why say youre going to show up and have someone waiting. We finally called another company hours later, which showed up within the hour. Dont use this tow company.

Our Grandson broke down on the road, we had scheduled Ray and Harris Towing, after 3+ hours of waiting for a no show we called A-1 Towing. They were there in 10 minutes. Not knowing the area, not knowing who to call. Thank you A-1 for taking care of our Grandson for us

Picked me up in less than an hour. Raining and cold outside, but the tow truck driver was very kind and happy to help. They charged me exactly what they quoted the first time I talked to them. Very fair pricing, definitely recommended.

They were 3 hrs late when the dispatch told us 1-1 1/2 hr and got upset because we were 30 mins late because I had to drop my mom off at work! They are late to get your car like 3 hrs but when they get to your destination they want you to be on time and rush you!.. The driver was VERY nasty to my mother on the phone because we were 30mins late like we didn’t have no where to be when you were 3hrs late to come tow us! The lady dispatch has a Snippy attitude(I wanted to snatch her through the phone!) not the kind of people to do business with, Very unprofessional!!! You would think at least they could’ve giving us a discount for the 3 hrs we waited and disrespectful driver but NOPE!! This company is TRASH!!!!!!!

These guys are a total rip off!! They charge $225.00 when they tow your car. The sign however says $175-$1500. WHAT? They stroll the complex nightly looking for cars to tow. How do you justify that much money? I had my car towed from the interstate after an accident for around $100. No justification. That is just bad business.

The guy towed my car which I have no problem with knowing that I didnt have a park pass, but when I requested simple information about what time it was towed the guy got snooby an hung up an refused to answer the phone. Basically hes checking stickers and towing cars without any paperwork being filled out an thats why he deserves 1 star. Due to the fact that he does burglary towing (no info on when it was towed.)

If i could give them less then a star o would. I called and they told me it would be an hour b4 they could have my car towed to its destination. I was told they had to drop off one car and they would be there. Here we are 2 and a half hours later and im still sitting in my hot car. During the duration of my wait i would call and they would give me time framea like 20 more min, 15 more minutes. And he still hasnt arrived. I called the company back and he told me they were busy... Im sorry what does that have to do with the time frame u gave me?? I feel like they should have told the truth from the begining and i would have made other arrangements. Im 8 months pregnant and have been sitting herw forever waiting on them. Not once did they offer to adjust the price or offer an apology. They get a thumbs down from me. DO NOT use this company if your trying to handle business in a timly fashion 👎👎👎👎

I see a crack head roaming the complex everyday and found out it was a man that drives the towing truck, had to call off work ,he towed my car saying it was doubled parked no signs say that around area,I ask them how much it cost, he said 250, I ubered up there he said, he need it in cash , I asked him why didnt he say that over the phone, he lied saying he did and kept asking me to turn off recording and he didnt, i had to walk about a mile or 2 to a atm at 5am in the morning in the rain by myself, then ubered back, then he said 225.00 lol he was trying to do me, and cheat me out my money damaged a part on my vehicle, and I think they took a part out my truck because I saw they had another truck like mine, and now my truck having a hard time starting, court it is! Because the devil has his hands on them!
