It was a stressful and unsafe situation with traffic building quickly. I called and explained everything. Even though he was busy, he made it work and came through for us.

Given how limited towing options can be in East Oakland and surrounding residential areas, having someone reliable like Raul makes a huge difference. I highly recommend his service

He even asked me to follow up with him afterward, which shows how much he truly cares. You can tell he's just a genuinely good hearted person, and he absolutely deserves every great review on here.
