I got a flat tire on freeway and called AAA. They asked Action Towing for the tire replacement service. They came to the place within 15 minutes and replaced the tire with a spare tire quickly. The person was really kind and did a great job! Thanks for your service. Really appreciated. read more

Jeff went above and beyond. We had a flat tire late in the day, and he called the local tire shop to set up an after hours drop-off, and went out of his way to make us the last stop of the day. Thanks for your help! read more

Cannot give Jeff at Action Towing HMB higher praise! He was so friendly, fast and helpful with our car needed some expert attention to get back on the road fast. Would highly recommend Jeff to anyone that needs tow and road services in the area! read more

My experience with action towing was great. The driver, Jeff, was fantastic, and I could not say enough good things about him. 10 stars

They are good on answering the phone and giving you a price and everything set up but they are not good at customer service twice to get the tow truck out to my location all times either got hung up on or disconnecting. Let's no call back not something someone wants to deal with when they're already in tight situation. read more

I needed a jump to start my car and Jeff came quickly (within an hour). He was efficient (got my car started within 5 min of arrival) and did a quick assessment of my battery where he diagnosed the issue and recommended a couple options to fix. read more

These guys were wonderful! My 16 yr old daughter got a flat tire in one of the beach parking lots. She had very spotty cell service, no spare, and it was a Saturday evening so finding a location to receive the car was challenging. Jeff and Sunday were so helpful and talked me through all of our options. I cannot say enough good things about them. read more

My Cadillac was broken down in Montara. Jeff the tow truck driver was very prompt, showed up ahead of schedule and was very friendly. I highly recommend HMB Action Towing and Jeff as a tow truck driver. read more

Action Towing & Road Service - breaks went out! - Towing Near Me - Half Moon Bay, California

See all

Jeff saved the day today when he helped me unlock the car after I stupidly tossed my keys in the trunk and closed it. He told me there was a risk of breaking the window but none of the other options would have worked so we chanced it and it all went well. He even crawled into the trunk from the back to retrieve the keys. Very polite very helpful and he saved my dog and me from a ruined day. Best of all, he got into the car without breaking the window which would have been a major headache. Now if I can just try to be smarter in the future... read more

Jeff is the man! Thanks for getting my RV towed all the way from half moon bay to Reno Nevada. You guys rock!

We are on the freeway for 3 hours. The driver showed up and decided to take off for another more lucratively deal. Have been calling and no help at all. Very poor service. read more

I recently had Jeff come out to get my RV out of the mud and I was simply amazed at him. He was super professional, methodical, safe, and very friendly. I literally couldn't have asked for more, except maybe that it was free, but i'm kidding, really. I'm always willing to pay a fair price for something that is 100% professional. I am so grateful that Action Towing took care of me, and I am super impressed with their preparation, knowledge of the laws, and firm grasp of physics! read more

Action Towing & Road Service - saved! - Towing Near Me - Half Moon Bay, California

Jeff is hands down the best tow guy I've ever come across and it was the first time ever meeting him. I have a Mercedes and he was able to diagnose that the problem was not the battery as my battery had sufficient power to start the car. He also checked for other things prior to towing it to a shop for me. Listen, most tow people come and do the job but he went way above and beyond and for that I'm so thankful! He even followed up w/ pics of the car being dropped off where I wanted. read more

Jeff from Action Towing was Awesome! I locked my keys in the trunk and security features on my 2018 Camry prevented us from getting into the trunk. Jeff was very persistent and after alot of hard work, he got my trunk open! This guy saved the day for me! Definitely recommend him!! read more

Just wanted to thank Victor who came to our rescue near Half Moon Bay. He went out of his way to take care of us & we're very grateful. read more

If I could give Jeff 10 stars I would! The man was A Godsend! He pulled us out of what could've been a very disastrous situation with patience and kindness! I can't even find the words to describe exactly how awesome he is! Thank you sooo much Jeff! Worth every one of those stars times 10! This is Halfmoon BayAction Towing! read more

Jeff was awesome. Showed up on time (earlier, actually) and although at first it looked like he couldn't remove the flat tire from my old Eurovan, he did his magic and was able to remove the tire and also the spare, which sits under the vehicle. All done within 30 minutes. And he was nice, an added bonus these days! Highly recommend him! read more

Jeff is my hero! He helped coordinate a retrieval for my car and got the job done in an efficient and friendly manner. So thankful to have this resource on the coast. read more

They came within 10 minutes and Sundie was so helpful and nice. Best experience I've had. They're very reliable and great customer service. Thank you very much Sundie for towing the Miata read more

Like Cathy C., I also had a great experience with Action Towing, via AAA. My car was hit by a flying bumper (lucky me). I was able to get it home but it was pretty messed up. It took over an hour for Terry to arrive, because it had been a crazy busy morning in our little community. He apologized, though I wasn't upset for waiting. I needed to calm down after the accident, anyway. Terry was able to get my car in working condition, so I didn't need a tow after all. He followed me to the repair shop just in case anything went wrong. Whether you have AAA or not, if you live on the Coastside, I highly recommend calling Action Towing. Very professional, great service. read more

The perfect example of dishonest people who tries to make extra money by taking advantage of a situation. I was in a motorcycle accident and was picked up by the ambulance. Everyone around me was wonderful and really made me feel that there is still a lot of good in the world. People just stopped by to help and stayed with me until I was safely picked up by the ambulance. The CHP officer on site asked me what to do with the bike, I told him my insurance would pay for a two. After that I was pretty much out of it until I got to the hospital. After being in the hospital for 2 days, I called around to figure what happened to my bike. The county of San Mateo admin office told me that it was picked by Action Towing. I called them to arrange for a two to the shop that will repair the bike, they told me that my bill is over $1100. Of course my mouth dropped and I though I'm still sedated by the medication they are giving me at the hospital so I asked again and the man confirmed in a contemptuous way that what I heard was right. He then went on about saying this includes storage fees....bla....bla...bla Wow, I said. Then I added, who would authorize this? I didn't . I was thinking to my self, no one in a normal state of mind would accept this much of a charge. The maximum I paid to two a car was $135 for a longer distance. So I asked the guy, is that fair? He said, well take it with CHP but you will not get anywhere. Then he went on and said, the insurance will pay for it so why do you care? What a dishonest person I said to myself. Of course I care because excessive charges like this caused our insurance premium to go up and everybody is impacted by it. Simply, Action Towing took advantage of the situation. They knew that CHP will not help, the insurance will pay, and you can't do anything about it. So they over charged. In addition, although I'm sure they had my information, they didn't try to call me so they can charge extra for storage. I know I can't do much about it except writing this review. But deep inside my heart I feel cheated, disrespected and I'm certainly not in peace with there Action. Therefore, I don't believe this money they got from me will enrich them but will sure make them poorer (or so I pray). I'm sure you my get stuck in a situation and call them for help. Just be aware of the type of people you are dealing with. read more

I have never been in a situation where I absolutely needed a tow. I was driving along the PCH with my buddy and my car all of a sudden shut off in the middle of the road. When I pulled over, it would not start back up. Unfortunately, I was over 20 miles from the nearest city and no other tow company would pick up the request I sent through my Statefarm Roadside assistance. Luckily, I was contacted by Jeff from Action Towing who made the whole process extremely smooth. After waiting over 5 hours for a tow truck to come (which falls on Statefarm and their 3rd party company, not Action Towing), I was grumpy, tired, and upset. However, My mood got better after meeting Jeff who was super charismatic and did everything in his power to get my car back started up. Since that didn't work, he towed me to the nearest reputable auto shop who took very good care of me as well. If I ever get into another situation where I need a tow on the PCH, I might just request Action Towing to get me directly. Give Jeff a raise for turning my first shitty car situation into a better one! read more

With an old Jeep, nothing is permanent. It breaks down, sometimes during the only storm of the season. Sometimes, when you're packed to go away for a nice weekend. But all is well when Terry comes to your rescue. He arrives quickly. with the knowledge and acumen of a mechanic. Your Jeep gets transported, with care and with good cheer. Action Towing really understands the importance of hiring skillful drivers. I know , when I'm on the road, someone really does have my back - or in this case, my number! read more

Day: my birthday Where: a romantic dinner on the coast, stroll on the beach at Maverick's My sweetheart/hero: choked up a little, he pledged all of his love, heart and soul, asking me to marry him. Me: a big yes, but I needed to pee. Oops: he was so distracted, he left the keys in the steering column. Enter: 2nd Hero of the Day: Terry, from Action Towing. (Thanks, buddy!) read more

I highly recommend Jeff at Action Tow in Half Moon Bay. Professional, knowledgeable, responsive and courteous.

I cannot recommend Action Towing, specifically on coast enough. Jeff is a wonderful individual who very obviously wants to help people when they are stuck in a stressful situation. I had other experiences in the past all of which fall remarkably short of my experience with Jeff. He is attentive, caring, responsive, dedicated and all things that you want to see in this position. Mentioning hard working seems superfluous, but he is that too. I very much appreciate his help, and should I need it again, I won't hesitate for moment before contacting him. read more

I've been helped by both Redwood City and San Francisco. In my first experience, they were the only company in San Mateo area that could get out to where I was near Half Moon Bay, it only costed about $95 for the tow and some really high number like 30 miles which meant $0 for how many miles I needed to get. The second was helping me with a parking problem I had with a local auto body shop which I parked in their lot by mistake. The guy helped me inflate my tires and even know a guy next door who had the tool to replace my pins. Great service and very fast for sure, great price. Efficient office person who picks up the phone. read more

Terry has saved me several times in the past year. He is professional and quick. The last time I needed a tow, he waited with me for a flatbed to arrive and even called the San Mateo sheriff to help us out. I recommend Action Towing to anyone who needs a tow in Half Moon Bay and surrounding areas. read more

Action Towing is the "best"road side assistance service I have ever had.I love Triple A they gave us an eta of 60 minutes and Terry was there in 15. and 15 minutes later he helped us to unlock the door and get into the trunk where our keys were. then Action Towing checked in on us to make sure we were okay love and highly recommend Action Towing for service and follow up care.

I hardly write reviews, but Jeff did such an outstanding job that I had to thank him for being the best! My low-suspension car got stuck while I was pulling into the Martin's Beach pullout lot in half moon bay. I put in a call for extraction service through AAA, and Jeff from Action Towing showed up. He took the time to really examine how the car was stuck and used the cables to lift the car so the undercarriage could clear and move without damage. I was really impressed by how thorough he was, and he was great in explaining was he was doing, too. So friendly and such great service! Definitely the best! read more

I was in a very bad situation when I really needed a tow. I was driving along the PCH and I saw a beautiful vista in which I wanted to capture on my cell phone. When I pulled over to get a good photo of the coast I went off-road to get the perfect shot. I drove off-road and I got stuck in a muddy hole that totally submerged the rear of my rental vehicle. Unfortunately, I was miles from the nearest city on a muddy, dirt road. Plus, no other tow company would take the job since I was off-road. AAA sent Action towing service to my rescue. I was finally contacted by Action Towing who made the whole process extremely smooth. After waiting over 2 hours for a tow truck to come, I was anxious, tired, and very upset. However, my mood got better after the driver from Action towing did everything in his power to get my car unstuck from a very difficult and disastrous situation. I was very close to a cliff which made my rescue very dangerous. If I ever get into another situation where I need a tow on the PCH, I would truly request Action Towing. read more

While in the middle of nowhere, I tried to turn around on a narrow road and got the front of my car stuck in a muddy ditch. Jeff was an absolute LIFE SAVER. A pole was located directly behind my car, making it extremely difficult (nearly impossible) to pull me out. He was able to pull the car at an angle and took the extra time and effort to ensure that it caused no additional damage. He was SO professional and friendly. I am so ridiculously grateful. If you need towing help, don't hesitate to call Action Towing - you will be in amazing hands!! read more

First Yelp review ever! As usual, Jeff from Action Tow went above and beyond to make our tow happen, despite several obstacles that other AAA tow company's have walked away from, saying we'd need a flatbed. Prompt, professional, tenacious! If we could give Jeff 6 stars we would! Thanks again Jeff! read more

This review is for both Action Towing and in particular for Terry. Terry has gone above and beyond the call of duty so many times for me. He works to not only get you towed safely but tries to fix it if at all possible. Terry brings a level a service you rarely see anymore. A++++ to Terry!!! read more

The other night my car broke down in Half Moon Bay (I live in the East Bay) and I couldn't have asked for a better tow truck driver! Sundae's positive and calm demeanor definitely helped ease the stress of being broken down an hour from home! He did everything he could to quickly and safely get us home, he took excellent care of my vehicle and offered excellent advice as far as what could be the potential issue. I had a great conversation with him that ride home! We need more people like him in this industry, the calm in the chaos was greatly appreciated. Very kind man, and great towing service. Thank you Sundae! Thanks Action towing! Cierra read more
