We met Zay at the auto parts store today. When he saw us trying to fix our car battery, he didn't hesitate to help us. Zay got his tools, fixed the issue quickly, and taught us something new. HIGHLY recommend!!! read more

Great and easy pick up with good communication and care for vehicle. Prepared for any car and conditions.

Found them on yelp after I had a flat on one of the coldest days of the year! He changed to spare and recommended a tire shop a mile and a half away! Highly recommend!!! read more

My battery died in a grocery store parking lot. They came, tried to jump and it didn't work. They said they couldn't tow and didn't have anyone available. Weird, a towing company with no tows. Then they had the nerve to ask for payment (cash only, shady), even though they did nothing, for the call. I then called a reputable company, they gave me a jump that worked and a tow to a repair shop. No repairs, no tows. read more

ZaY saved the day with helping me jump my car. The most affordable in the area which is a plus for me as a college student. Def recommended Emerald Towing read more

I called for an urgent need, being stranded with a dead car battery after a Sox game. Xavier answered and was on site in no time at all. He was professional and easy to work with. I definitely recommend this company. read more

BY Michael.J. I had a flat a few days ago, I was unable to remove the lugs off my suv, called Emerald Towing service. They responded very quickly and removed the lugs. Thanks to Cecil: read more

Needed a tow not too far away. My man Xavier picked up on the second ring and was here within an hour. Super friendly and the price is as more than reasonable. read more

After State Farm wanted me to wait for the Second Coming of Christ, I called Zay to be towed. He arrived within his estimated time, got my car to my regular repair shop. Also tried to help me find another place to help. But it was after hours. When I forgot to get my receipt, he went out his way to bring me one. This is a black-owned business which I will use again. And would recommend to others. read more

Wonderful service, great rates. I was out running errands on Memorial Day, when, without warning, my car just wouldn't start. Not only was A Emerald open - they didn't quote me a ridiculous markup, due to the holiday. Zay arrived within the estimated time, and provided excellent service. Thanks so much for everything! I will be recommending your company in the future. read more

I really like this towing company he came at the time he said which was a hour, he knew what he was doing. I love a black business that is professional. read more

Helped us out in a bind during rush hour. Arrived very fast and had no issues. Thanks!

Emerald Towing is an excellent towing and repair service. Zay went above and beyond to help me get my disabled car out of one garage and into another. It was not an easy or simple task, and required some extra time and muscle. Most towers would have passed up this job, but Emerald Towing took it and did a great job. I was very impressed, and definitely recommend. read more

Waited 3 hours for two no-show towing services through my insurance company's roadside assistance... Waited 15 minutes after calling Zay from Emerald Towing. read more

I needed to jump start a car on a very cold day. The hood was frozen down, and the battery needed alot of coaxing before it showed any spark. The fellow who showed up (very promptly!) was patient and knowledgeable, and got the job done efficiently. Thanks! read more

My car battery died and they quickly responded and got things started for me in a time crunch. Great friendly service.

Right on time! Awesome communication. Fantastic service! Thank you! Highly recommend and will use next time. I had a flat tire and Xavier was on it! So appreciated reliable service. read more

Zay came thru & got us home in no time! & at a fair price. I'm so glad we found this service... We were stranded when our exhaust pipe began dragging under the car. We were afraid it might create sparks as we drove or further damage the car. After calling A Emerald, Zay was there within 15 minutes (actually less, I think). He got me, my husband, my baby girl & our car home safely. I'm sold! Definitely will be using this service again. read more

Zay at A Emerald Towing was wonderful. I won't go into the series of problems I had with my car, but Zay made a difficult situation much easier to deal with. He was punctual -- even calling to confirm when he was on his way, courteous, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. Great service and reasonable charges. Thanks again, Zay! read more

I used them for a jump start. Quick response at nearly 2am. Proper and helpful service. Decent price. Thanks Mr. Zay and A Emerald for good 24hr emergency roadside assistance in Chicago Bronzeville Hyde Park area! ! read more

Zay was so helpful! My car broke down late one night and Zay not only towed my car, but he helped me find a reliable shop to take it to. A Emerald Towing is great and I would recommend it to anyone that needs fast, reliable service (he was at my location in 20 minutes!) 5 star service read more

I was very surprised to our tow driver come in the exact time he said he would. He has very reasonable prices and doesn't mind going the extra mile. I recommend this company to any in need of a tow. read more

I've used this service now at least 3 times. Always prompt and pleasant. I called at 9:54 this morning for a jump and my car was up and running by 10:19. Happy to use this service. read more

If you ever need a tow truck I highly recommend this one. Great customer service. The price was great and they arrive to you in a reasonable time frame. If I ever need a tow truck again I will use this service again. read more

They didn't want to come out to assist me, then left me on hold forever. Horrible customer service

Great customer experience. I highly recommend Zay and A Emerald Towing. My car battery conked out so I contacted Zay to schedule a battery jump. He quoted me a very fair price and scheduled the time. He was on time, professional, and very nice to do business with. Thumbs way up! read more

I locked my keys in my car and Cecil arrived 20 minutes after I called. He was really nice and took extra steps to ensure my car was not damaged while getting my car unlocked. Super friendly! read more

Cons: They lack customer service Pros: Reasonably priced and responded very quickly. Despite the customer service I would definitely used again and refer in an emergency. read more

My car got a flat tire on my way home from work last night. I wish I could say that I know how to change a tire, but I don't, and the last thing I wanted to do was wait an hour or more for a tow truck. However, I called Xavier and he was there to help in 15 minutes! He was super friendly, provided excellent service, and was very informative....showed me how to properly change a tire! Xavier, you are on my speed dial! If anything ever happens to my car, you are my guy! Thanks a bunch!! read more

Great service from tow truck driver Xavier. He arrived at the scheduled time and he called me 10 minutes before arriving too. Good price too. Highly recommend Emerald Towing read more

One week ago today my husband and I were driving South on LSD to an event in HP where we were expected to arrive early. We hit a pot hole on the S curve (as did many others) and immediately realized that we had a flat tire. Our GPS sent us to a BP station at 439 S Pershing, off of MLK Dr. This "service station" only provided gas. The genial manager, Mr. Darryl Smallwood gave us a card for A Emerald Towing AND found a ride for us to Hyde Park. We talked with Zay. He said not to worry about it. They would put on the spare. We left our event, made a 3 minute stop at the BP station, picked up our car and drove home with no problem. THANK YOU ZAY and Mr. Smallwood for great service and more. read more

I called A Emerald after the brakes in my car went out, and the whole process was smooth and easy. Xavier estimated he would arrive in under 40 mins., which he did. I rode with him to the repair shop, and he was a nice interesting guy to chat with; I learned a lot about Chicago house music. I paid a reasonable price with credit card and got an emailed receipt. Definitely the most pleasant towing experience I have had. read more

I called Zane a couple of nights ago to arrange a tow the next morning, he was there exactly at the time we arranged (before me) and was a really nice guy to ride with on the way to my repair shop. Highly recommended read more

Service was prompt and courteous. I had a flat tire that needed changing. They were out on site within the hour, and the change was painless and quick read more

Really reasonable rate and super quick response. I hope I don't need a tow again but if I do I won't hesitate to call Emerald

Fast reliable and professional services. Came less than 30min and knew his job

Best towing experience I've ever had! A Emerald Towimg was fast, reasonably priced, and very polite. The driver, Zay, was very personable and willing to go above and beyond. I was stranded with my teenager and my dog and Zay found a solution to get all of us and the car back home! This towing company offers the comfort you need when your facing similar situations. Great service! I would highly recommend them! read more
