We were involved in a collision with a concrete company truck--t-boned in our truck after the concrete truck ran the red light. We were extremely shaken up after; our truck was knocked onto the passenger side, there was glass everywhere, people surrounded us--it was a very chaotic scene. I assume the police called this company--we certainly didn't. All of this is to say: any tow company that shows up to a scene like that, that quickly, and has you initial paperwork less than an hour after you've nearly lost your life--paperwork that apparently tells you how much they're charging you for towing and storing your completely useless vehicle--well, that company doesn't have your best interests at heart. Capitalism at its finest. HOWEVER, the guy who picked up and dropped off our truck today, Michael, was incredibly kind. Asked me how we were doing, and sympathized when I told him we were likely going to struggle to get the concrete company to do the right thing. Some people are still human, even in a world that rarely values humanity for humanity's (and not profits') sake. read more

Gary’s Towing & Salvage Pool - Towing Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Worst Company ! Do not use them. They take advantage of people . My son was in his first accident and TPD contacted them to move the car no choice given to my kid. I tried to ask the driver nicely just to move the car out of the road and we would have AAA tow it since we have free towing with them. He was rude and said he would still have to charge my son $85 . For what? To move it maybe 5 feet . Then They towed it to my home because they were already charging us , only to find out they charged almost $6 a mile. So almost $200 later that my son who works part time doesn't have I was upset. I tried to speak with someone in person and got absolutely nowhere. They take advantage of people and overcharge just to make money and I will never recommend them. Avoid having them tow your vehicles at all cost. They have no empathy or compassion for anyone. read more

They were fast and got our car moved after an accident. Went to the towing yard and they have great staff that were very helpful read more

Predatory business. Got sideswiped onto a median in the middle of the road and the police "called the tow truck" and this guy shows up 15 mins later. Goes on about how he's tired it's been a long day and it'd be easier to tow to their lot. I was in distress as most people are in an accident. what was i supposed to say? no leave my car in the road while i wait an hour for triple a? racked up an insane lot fee over one weekend. Tried to get my possessions and was treated like absolute s*** by the employees on the phone and in person. Beyond horrible. These people are not seeing heaven read more

This place is the worst place in Tucson, AZ to get your car towed to. They're disrespectful, unhelpful and money hungry goblins. They don't know what they're doing half the time and make up crazy excuses on why you can't get your car. No wonder they have such a low review, NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN! Useless place with useless people. Also why does this place charge you on days their close, all they want is your money, AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! if I could give 0 stars I would. read more

total rip off, got into a crazy accident involving an RV that ran a red light and they were the company called by the police i guess. they made it seem like if we went through ANY other towing company it was gonna cost us but since they were there, they said there's was free. i was in shock after possibly losing my life and the bill literally racked up to 4000 dollars within 3 days of being at there place. there was also cash missing from my glove box after i finally was able to get my car. they are just a misleading company and predators for people at the crash sight. i still have no idea why he told me it would be free. when we brought the money up to the manager and the fact it was apparently free, nothing happened. we were told we would get a call back and didn't. DO NOT GO HERE. if i could leave zero stars i would read more

These people are horrible. They just prey on people who are in accidents. They told my younger niece who was in an accident that they would tow her car to their junk yard for free if they could keep it. She agreed. 15 days later they said she owed them almost $400. I called them to explain, nothing was ever in writing or communicated to my niece. The front staff was rude, talked over me and then just hung up on me. They are terrible! read more

They have horrible pricing. they charged me $700 to tow my vehicle after an accident and then store it for 13 days. Then they charged me a 3% fee to pay with a credit card. I'm sorry but the rental of a spot in their tow yard should not be over a thousand dollars a month! Their storage fees are just a way to gouge you! read more

My RV was towed by Tucson Police (that's a different story) and I wanted to retrieve the property I had in the RV, which wasn't an insignificant amount of stuff, so I went down to Gary's Towing to do so. I first had to find the title and that took a couple trips but I finally did and then proceeded to start removing my property when out of the blue, the office manager Pam told her employee that we only got 20 minutes and we were cut off. She claimed it was their policy and that it was because they had other customers to help. Well, there wasn't on this day or any other days any customers waiting in the front office. The office manager also claimed that the front office staff and the office manager herself had told me that there was a 20 minute time limit each time I went out there and I challenged her saying that I had never been told that and she especially had never told me that nor had she ever even spoken to me. She again claimed she had and I challenged her to tell me what I look like if she had in fact spoken to me before. She didn't and couldn't and changed the subject but was completely unapologetic for lying to my face and continued doing so on other occasions. She also insisted upon continuing to lie and actuality saw fit to mock me today and said, "Pretty soon I'm gonna have the title to that thing in my hand and then you're cut off!" If I didn't know better, I would assume she was trying to steal my property or at least arrange things so she can get her hands on as much of it as she can when she can. Gary's has a reputation for stealing things out of people's vehicles I guess. Thankfully, my RV looked pretty beat up and therefore they must have assumed there wasn't anything worth anything in it so it hadn't been touched yet I first got back inside. But since then, her staff has seen the kinds of things I've been pulling out of there and with Christmas coming up, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Pam decided that I was going to be her Santa Claus this year. Time to retire, Pam. read more

Well for starters, when the company was towing my vehicle the blonde lady who was driving the tow truck got my car on reversed and when she lifted the back of my car onto the truck, my entire bumper scrapped against the pavement and completely came off. When i went to see if my car was in good condition to get out of there it was completely totaled. There was monster energy drink cans and trash from candy all in my back seat. When i told the guy if i could get the name of the blonde haired lady, he said i need to ask front desk and that 2,000 dollars is "chump change" that fixing my car isn't that bad *it wasn't even totaled when towed* :/ when i asked front for the ladies name and the reasoning, he said he cannot give that information. That i will not be able to know the name of the person who towed me vehicle. Very unprofessional setting. This is an emotional decision making company. read more

Rude drivers. Reckless on the road. License 3LA 38C. Tailgating and aggressive behavior. Changing lanes without signals and forcing me off the road. Would not trust my vehicle around them if this is how they act normally. read more

I bought a car from their auction. They had videos of it running and driving when in reality it did not drive or run when I got to it. Upon further diagnosis it appears there is absolutely no way they got the car like that, they must have messed with it because it had PVC pipe installed in place of the oem hoses and would not drive for longer than 30 seconds without overheating. It had a blown water pump and Every coolant hose in that car had a leak. It was legitimately undrivable the radiator was empty. they stole the spare tire and jack, and the owners manual before I picked it up. read more

The most predatory service I have ever seen in my life. I was involved in a self defense shooting, all cleared by TPD, and was shot in the leg. I could not walk, and could barely make it from my chair to the bathroom. Yet they still required me to come down to sign paperwork for my vehicle. The kicker was, they didn't check any ID or anything, only reason they found out was my father didn't know my pin. Then they asked him for ID and came out for me to sign. They do nothing but tow to pray on people who are law abiding and stuck in a bad situation. Esp when my car was legally parked, and I also had my own roadside assistance that would have towed for free. FUCK GARYS. read more

Our daughters car broke down on the freeway and we needed to get it moved asap to prevent further damage or injury. They answered the phone immediately and were on their way within minutes. Scooped up the car quickly and got it to the house in less then an hour. Driver was friendly and professional. Will use again read more

Gary’s Towing & Salvage Pool - Pick up - Towing Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

My car was taken there after a wreck, and when I called to verify it being there nobody could help me, they said my car was released to someone else but wouldn't give me the name, I was given 2 different answers then put on hold for 20mins, where the man helping me forgot about me and left me on hold, extremely unprofessional ! read more

They gave us only 15 minutes to get stuff out of our totalled vehicle. When your old things take longer, No patience or understanding though. read more

The lady in the front desk was awful, super rude and racist. She even said I have a strong accent and wouldn't talk to me. horrible attitude. I called her before I went there to make sure they had my car keys and she hung up on me like 4-5 times. Already had noticed her attitude. I work at the hospital and I was at the hospital trying to call them and the nurses saw she was hanging up on me all the time just for my accent. I got to the location and she was even more rude. I defended myself respectfully but letting her know I was upset. Then she told me go away that she won't let me go to get my belongings from my car. I was hurt from a car accident and I still feel traumatized and very sore so adding this treatment from this lady who works in this company Is not fair. Tucson police department should probably reconsider what company they contract since they are so so rude. read more

They left my car with all of windows completely down while it was on a 30 day hold. Car completely full of dirt and rained on all on the inside read more

We were in an accident and vehicle was towed here. The staff were very helpful and professional. Made this whole process a little easier.

If I could give less than one star I would. The lady behind the glass is rude and very unprofessional. When we got the car back it had obviously been searched completely everything was tossed stuff from the trunk was now in the backseat. The lady behind the glass didn't seem to care until she found out we had the funds to get the car back. The fees they charge are outrageous and they are not willing to work with you whatsoever. I guess we're lucky to even get the car back at all, with reading all these reviews and everybody else's experience with this company. If you have any other choice, I suggest you take it. read more

My sons car was towed by this company and, they damaged his oil pan. They did not offer any type of questions or try to resolve this issue with out taking them to Small Claims court, which we are going to be doing. My son was visiting UofA and purchased a parking pass up to 11:00 am on 9/2 and this company towed his car at 10:51. They are horrible people running this business and mentioned the Owner is Dead, so we cannot get into contact with any one but him. I WILL BE TAKING THIS FURTHER! read more

These people are complete thieves!!! They stole anything and everything that was worth anything of money in the car. $1,500 stereo system gone, iphone gone, tool set gone, wallet that was in the car wiped clean, and plenty of other things. Title and registration were in the car and they took it out so I wasn't even able to get the car. This company is straight scam artist. I asked to talk to manager and tried to tell me how I see the car is how they got it. Which makes no sense because they picked the car up right after the minor wreck it was in. I was literally shocked because the car look like it went through a tornado. I mean they even took the tire off the damn spare tire!! Worst business I have ever seen operate. They are literally stealing from people in broad day light and getting away with it. CROOKS!!!!! P.S. If your car is in this shit hole of a place do anything in your power to get it out as soon as possible, otherwise the car will be wiped clean of anything of value. read more

These people are crooks! My daughter was in a car accident night before last. We had the vehicle moved less than 24 hours later from Gary's to our insurance lot. Gary's had gone through her car, moved almost everything into the trunk, removed all her things from the glove box into file folders, rearranged all her personal affects, emptied her console box, took the money and perfumes and whatever they wanted for themselves! Unbelievable! I am shocked this company can get away with blatantly stealing from patrons and worse is the police called this company out. We will be filing a report with the police and the BBB. DO NOT USE THESE CROOKS!! read more

They're quick, efficent, affordable and friendly ! From everyone at the office , to the drivers.

Had car towed there after accident, they are very polite and helpful, even asked if I was physically okay. I've read pervious reviews stating how much they charge and all circumstances are different, just remember they are a business and it costs A LOT to run a towing company. read more

My husband and I had a 30 minute phonecall conversation about picking up my vehicle but were very surprised to find out only upon our arrival that our vehicle was no longer there. The guy we spoke to didn't even bother to look up our vehicle profile throughout our conversation and was such a prick once we got there. Terrible terrible company. I would never use them. The fact that they're even still operating is a miracle to me. read more

If I could give negative Stars I would. First off this company is the on call company for TPD. So accident where the diver is hospitalized - this clown comes and gets it. That happened to my mother-in-law who was hit head on by a red light runner and broke her neck. She's 87......... Think about the trauma the family is going through with that alone. Father-in-Law is in a wheel chair and was ay home when this happened. while wife was in the hospital with her mother I verified that the car was at Gary's. asked about the docs needed to get the GROCERIES out of the car for fixed income old folks since mother-in-law was coming home from shopping when this happened. go there with 86 year old father in law in tow, because he HAD to be present to prove ownership with his ID and the docs that were in the car. Turns out the cops took the "current" registration and insurance so it was not in the car but the printout form Service AZ was for the most recent plate sticker. The mountain of old expired ones since 2008 when they boiught the car did not matter. THEY REFUSED ACCESS TO THE GROCERIES, GLASSES AND GARAGE DOOR OPENER........ I'm not kidding. A-Clown at the counter would not hear of any of the situations that he was putting me under and the father-in-law. what a nitwit. Cost the folks $110 worth of groceries since I could not keep him out after returning the hour home for a total of a 4 hour adventure to get the groceries. Turns out the cop returned the docs to my wife in the hospital after we chose not to return to Gary's because of the time and aggravation. They have the glass covering the aa clowns behind it for good reason because he was seriously 3 seconds from the most embarrassing moment of his life. Out a horrible situation this joke of a company only made it worse and has no common sense. Avoid these idiots like the plague. read more

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE!!! DON'T USE THESE PEOPLE... AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!! My son was in an accident and when TPD showed up, they called Gary's Towing to tow my car, of course, they just took it back to their lair without asking. This was on a Saturday night. Of course, they never contacted me to let me know they had my car. I tried calling on Sunday, but no one available until Monday. Unable to reach anyone on Monday. On Tuesday, I call my claims agent, who refers me to Caliber Collision, whos tells me I have to call Gary's Towing to 'release' my vehicle so they can begin the repair process. I call Gary's Towing around 11am on Tuesday and tell them they have my car and I'd like it released and taken to Caliber Collision. The girl, "Andi", says "you want US to tow it over there?"... I thought since they are a tow service, and took my car without asking, that they'd tow it over there. I was wrong. She then says "It doesn't work like that.... you have to have your insurance agent call and release the car... that's why you pay them the big bucks for" as she snickered. I said 'Fine, I'll call them". I called my agent, who called the claims person, who said they'd take care of it within the hour. I follow up in an hour, and called Caliber, they said Gary's won't release it yet. I called Gary's and Andi said they haven't received any release papers yet. I called my agent, who called claims, and then called back and said he faxed them a release notice an hour ago. I wait a little bit, called Caliber, nope - no release. I called Gary's, Andi said nope - no notification. I said "Well somebody is lying to me then, because my agent and claims person said they faxed you paperwork a couple hours ago..." she then pauses, and says "wait one moment while I check...." (yeah, right)... and she comes back to the phone and says "We didn't receive all the information we needed"... I asked "well what else do you need? You have the claims person corporate phone number? address? contact info?" she said "yes.... but it's not on company letterhead".... can you believe that??!!!! Good grief. Long story short, 17 phone calls and 5 hours later, they finally 'release' my vehicle (it was so ridiculous, the attorney for my insurance company had to get involved to see why they were being so difficult in releasing my car!), but had no one available to tow it that day or the next day, Wednesday... that it would be Thursday at the earliest before they could tow it over. I called Caliber, they had THEIR tow service go over and get it within the hour! Kudos to Caliber for being so helpful... shame on Gary's Towing for being such idiots about the whole thing, and trying their very best to hold my car hostage so they can rack up their storage fees and take advantage of the insurance companies. Talk about criminal business practices... these guys should not be allowed to have a contract with TPD. It makes TPD look bad for being associated with them. I put notes in the glove compartment of all my cars, and my family and friends cars saying 'IF NEED TOW, DO NOT USE GARY'S TOWING, USE ANYBODY ELSE, JUST NOT GARY'S!!!" Do yourself a favor and do the same. These folks are simply horrible. Talk about unfair business practices, fraud, misrepresentation and oppressive & unconscionable acts... Gary's Towing practices all of these. read more

Honestly, these guys are the best. I got myself stuck in the mud in the middle of nowhere on a Saturday. Gary's sent someone in less than an hour who was a really nice and efficient "removal specialist." He got me out of my predicament quickly and painlessly. read more

My moving truck (18 wheeler) got stuck on the way out today on La Cholla. They were open Saturday morning and dispatched a heavy duty tow truck to my place in about an hour. They towed the truck right out. The driver was very efficient and nice too. Good guy. They charged by the hour. I don't know the normal rates, but it was reasonable. Thanks Guys! read more

A friend got a DUI in my car. They asked me to pay hundreds to release it. I paid and they still didn't release it. we paid money to the lean holder(Kia Finance) as requested as well. We are told the car was reported abandoned to Kia from Gary's towing. Gary's towing stone the speakers out of my car and had held it in Phoenix to be auctioned off. This place is shady. If they weren't contracted by TPD I don't know how they would stay in business. Say good by to all your personal belongings if this place happens to get a hold of it if you happen to get your car back... smh... read more

thank you staff for the helpful service to retrieve our sidekick that was stuck in the sand, everyone was kind.

Was involved in a wreck, the driver that came, flew so fast off the road he almost hit me and our truck. I told the driver he came in a little fast, he didn't like me saying that. He got all pissed off, I decided to get his information off of his truck. He ended up leaving, he left like a crazy guy on drugs. I called the number that was on the truck, I talked to some guy by the name of Brian. He didn't seem happy I was calling in about one of his drivers, so he hangs up on me. I called back to find out what's going on, this place is just a joke. Go someplace else that does a great job and actually treats people like humans. This company is trash that is run by trash, shame on them and anyone who uses them. read more

I know these guys get a bad rap, but they were open on a holiday weekend. They gave me an arrival time and were within 15 minutes of that time. It was complicated tow since my house is a bit inaccessible and they did a great job. The dispatcher was nice and the driver did everything he could to put my vehicle where I wanted it. I have no problems with their service and I will use them from now on. read more

Find a different towing company. Read their reviews on tucson citysearch before using them. Stopped at a store to pick up a few things and when I came out a tow truck pulled in behind me and blocked me into my spot. He saw me getting into my car and still lowered the lift to the ground and when I said I need to leave he said, "You will just have to wait." I called the number on the side of his truck to let the office know and they said that he should be there with police officers (he was taking a person who got arrested's car) and I could talk to police officers about it. What kind of customer service is that? The police didn't tell him to park there. The car wasn't even stalled, the guy drove it up on the tow truck so he literally could have parked ANYWHERE. The guy could have literally pulled forward 25 feet and not have blocked anyone but he was too lazy. I don't know why Tucson PD would call these guys for any assistance. The reviews on citysearch are a worthwhile read, stuff has been stolen and cars have been damaged by this company. read more
