American Towing, an independent business (sorry forgot his name, rough day, lol) was outstanding in picking me up outside Los Banos to Mariposa. AAA (Saintz) had refused service because I had a dog (Beagle) with me! Called my dog a dangerous animal because he howled (that's what Beagles do!) and refused service after the initial pickup on San Luis Reservoir. American Towing went out of his way to help with my Beagle and my tight quarters at night to drop off my Suburban! Outstanding job! Please use them next time! Best, Horst. read more

I needed to tow my car from Merced to Fairfield and called 3 companies. First company sounded flakey and quoted an outrageous price. Second company was cheaper but was still pretty high. I called American and the owner Gabriel gave me the best price by a mile and was very professional. He arrived right on schedule and called me when the car was delivered. I will probably never need his service again because I live 125 miles away but I highly recommend American Towing. read more

American Towing is a quality outfit. They pulled our truck up off of the side of the road and from start to finish, were a pleasure to deal with. Their rates are affordable and our driver, Garren, was competent and helpful. They made a tough situation less stressful. I highly recommend them for your towing needs. read more

I called to have a simple tow and was advised they were behind an hour. I was explaining that I had spoken to someone last week and they hung up on me mid sentence. I'll never call them ever again. read more

Horrible service, very unprofessional, advised the tow truck guy that the car was parked in the parking lot of merced college library which apparently he was unable to find so he left but did not have the courtesy to let us know he left, I drove to merced college to meet my niece that needed her car towed i located her by typing merced college library in the Apple Maps (simple find) how does someone have a hard time finding a car in such a populated area specially being in that business. I'm all about supporting local businesses but will not be supporting nor referring this business to anyone. read more

Got a flat tire which needed to be replaced. Gabriel came out quickly and towed car to tire shop and gave me a lift there. He was friendly and professional. Would highly recommend and will definitely use him again if I ever need another tow. read more

So today on Father's Day I had a little mishap in my classic 1959 Apache. Went to a truck show and ended up breaking down on the way back. I called my AAA provider and they sent out a tow truck with a flat bed as I requested. Upon arrival the driver of that other company took one look at my truck and said he couldn't tow it because it was "to low". I told him that his company had done tows with this very same truck in the last with no problems. Well they basically said they weren't going to tow my truck. I made one call to American towing and Gabe came out within 30 min. He was very professional and also was able to load my truck without any issues with dragging or scrapping it anywhere. He had my truck back to my house and unloaded within 45 min. I wish AAA would put him on the contract. read more

10/10. Gabriel gave me tow from Merced to Salinas. A two hour drive. Real humble man. The price Gabriel gave me compared to the rest of the towing companies around, was literally such a great price. And had a better attitude than the rest when I rang them a call. Overall, after two hours, I got a new friend, and I got home safely. RECOMMEND. read more

Unprofessional and horrible. Waited 2 hrs for the tow and called them back to see if they forgot about our tow and they said they're were coming. After we got off the phone to wait for them they called us back after waiting another 30 mins for us to call another towing service because he took another job. read more

I absolutely had great service from the driver. First off, the price was unbeatable. Second, the driver was very engaging in conversation and was a great guy overall. I would honestly rate his service as the number 1 factor in me calling him again if my car breaks down. The man is dedicated and motivated to give great service. Thank you American Towing. Wish the best of luck to you and your business read more

Great Service and customer service! Great towing for any type of car including classics. Give them a call if you need a tow!
