No complaints. Fair prices, got to me when they said they would, and no surprises along the way. Driver skimmed by the credit card tip page on his phone app when he took my payment. I was gonna throw a tip on the bill to buy him a beer. If you're in their service area, you'll get a fair deal. I will repeat when needed. read more

They responded quickly, under 20 minutes, and even apologized that it took them that long to get to me. I needed a jump as I left my headlights when I didn't hear the beep due to my earbuds. Once he arrived I was back on the road in 5 minutes. read more

My car suddenly went out of commission yesterday and so I called Chobar's: the closest tow to me. They took a while to come but they had already informed me of it because all their trucks were in Elgin at the time, I said it was no problem since I no longer had anywhere I needed to be. A few hours later the driver showed up and he was very rude. Kept his headphones in while speaking to me, didn't even acknowledge me when he first arrived and didn't seem to believe me when I told him what the issue was with my car. I told him it was stuck in park and he said he needed to look on his phone to search a way to put it in neutral or else there was nothing to do. After sitting on his phone for a total of one minute he said he couldn't help and left. Mind you the whole interaction lasted less than five minutes while I had waited hours. read more

What absolute thieves!! Our company van was hit by another vehicle and totaled. The police called these people to tow it away. They charged $1,000 to tow it to their location in Plainfield and $50 per day storage. You can only pay cash to pick it up and they only allow pick ups at 9:00am, 12:30pm and 3:30 pm. In other words, they make it as difficult as possible to get your vehicle back to get repaired or junked, so they can get the insurance company to pay the storage fees. What a SCAM! If you have a choice, don't call these criminals! read more

My girlfriend spun out and totaled the car and the state police called these guys to tow the car. I called them same day to figure out cost and etc. Was extremely rude and felt like I was bothering him. Next day I drive to the location to figure everything out. No one was there I gave him a ring and then was told they are appointment only not once did he tell me they were appointment only on the phone call yesterday or on the website. As we were settling the bill and took out a debit card was I told cash only. Charged us 500 dollars for a 150 dollar tow. Bragging about how they have been in business for 50 years. One would figure for 50 years they would have a office and HEAT but had neither. The owner is more interested in talking to your girlfriend when your not around then trying to handle business and keep things moving along. read more

Chobar's Towing was fantastic. Got us towed right away. Really took great care of our low profile antique sports car. Highly recommend.

I used Chobar's last night when my clutch and gears failed at about 8:40pm. I called after waiting for my friend to come to my rescue. Jordan helped link my car up, and he got my car home safe and sound. I will be using them later this weekend to tow my car to my mechanic. They are honest, on time, and professional. Thank you Jordan and Tom! I told Tom I would be leaving him a great review and recommend Chobar's to my friends in the area too. I have told two already if they get stuck to call them right away in this polar vortex weather of ours. I really appreciated them being there for me last night in dire weather conditions. I am so grateful! read more

What an awesome company! Very customer centered. I needed to get my car towed to the dealership. Called Chobar's and was promised that a tow truck would be at my house in an hour. The driver, Jordan was very professional and had a very caring heart. He took the time to talk with me and even asked how my day was going. He took good care of my car and I was able to get it to the dealership. I had called this company based on the reviews that they had gotten and five stars definitely defines them. Thank you so much for taking good care of me, as well as my car. Your company rocks! read more

I had a flat on 55N near Weber Road. State Trooper gave me 2 names of towing service companies and I called Chobars. He was out within 20 mins. It was the owner Tommy and he was extremely helpful and polite. It was just a matter of 15 mins for him to put the doughnut tire on and I was on my way. I would recommend him to anyone! read more

On July 3rd I called the owner, Tommy because my fiance was stranded in a bad part of Joliet by herself and needed a tow. He told me that this "was family day and the kids needed to watch the fireworks so he would not tow anywhere more than a few miles." I asked if he was a towing company like 99.9% of others where it is 24 hours. He said yes. I said ok, fine. How long until you can get to her. He said 15 or 20 mins. He gave me a price. I said fine. Almost an hour later sends me a text saying that his drivers need to make $25 more because it was a holiday. I asked what holiday falls on a July 3rd AND MORE IMPORTANTLY WHY IS THIS COMING AFTER HE ALREADY QUOTED ME AND AN HOUR LATER??? Then out of pure disgust of feeling scammed, but needing my fiance to be ok, I said fine to the extra $25. About 40 mins later he called me telling me that they got an emergency tow just now and I have to find someone else. If you use this company, you risk being a fool and being put in a bad position for you or your loved ones. read more

We were extremely pleased with the professionalism of this company. We were assisted by Tom, who helped us to retrieve our belongings from our very damaged car. It was obvious that great care had been taken in the towing process because loose and very important items were still in the car. We would recommend this company to anyone and wish we lived nearer for future possible situations. read more

Amazing quick response and incredible service! Definitely recommend! After waiting for another company through our insurance company for way too long, we called Chobar's and they said they would be there in 15 minutes, and they were!! So happy and thankful for their service! read more
