I've used Dynamic Towing two other times in the past; both times I was charged $60.00 for towing my motorcycles. That's a fair and reasonable price and the distance was about 5 minutes away. This evening, I needed a tow again (third time's a charm, they say!) and when I called, the dispatcher said it would be $90.00 as "two people need to handle the bike". This wasn't the case at all; I handled the bike while the tow driver strapped it. I rode the bike up the ramp and down; it didn't need handling as I had enough juice left to get it up and back down without assistance. My battery was running very low so I called them before I was completely dead.
Dispatcher said he would send a driver out in 20 minutes. I called back after almost 40 minutes to see what was happening. Almost 40 minutes later and driver arrives. Not his fault; it's the DISPATCHER giving under-times when he should have just been upfront; I would have waited anyway. The driver? AWESOME GUY! He towed me before; super guy and friendly; he knows what he's doing! No complaints about him AT ALL!
The dispatcher, though? A $30.00 jump to $90.00 for a 5 minute tow where my bike wasn't handled by anyone but me? Really? Clearly, they make rates up as they go. There's zero doubt about this! The last times I got towed where it WAS a two man job... and it was $60.00. This time it was $90.00 ($103.50 in total) and I drove it up and back down myself. Ridiculous pricing I later called Moncton Towing and asked what their rate would have been (without mentioning it would not have needed to be handled by two people) and they quoted me a TOTAL of $70.00. I know who I'll be calling if I need tow service again ... and it certainly won't be Dynamic Towing; there's nothing "Dynamic" about their rates. read more
