Joe respects you if you respect him. I parked illegally on Friday and he kept my car over the weekend because the business was closed. I got my car on Monday and paid $202. He was apologetic and a normal guy. But it is an inconvenience that he keeps your car for two days. Other than that, the process was normal. read more

On Monday the 27th I was towed by this company, and what followed makes this an untrue review, because I'm giving this company one star more than I'd like to: I was towed wrongfully but that is not this guy's fault (Joe), he's just providing a service, however upon trying to get the vehicle, I was left in a situation where I could not find his tow yard on Maps, so I had to ask AI where the yard was and that's when I was able to find somewhere close to park to the location of the tow lot. This guy Joe was acting very secretive and also disrespectful towards my sister and I when we were trying to get directions from him to his lot (yes he was this secretive about where he stores YOUR towed vehicles), and he was very defensive throughout our dealing. I had to really restrain myself due to his disrespect although I let him have a good piece of my mind at the site of the pickup. I also had to ask him for a receipt of the towing, which he would have said nothing about had I left. I'm trying to be as objective as possible without saying so much as occurred during the situation (we would be here much longer). In order to rectify things for the business-goer, I am going to leave his company address here, so if you have the misfortune of needing his help, or falling into his shi*hole of a lot, you will not have to go through the runaround. The address is 6328 grover st. Omaha NE 68106 41.223182,-96.013865 (the numbers at the end are the direct GPS location you can copy and paste into Maps. read more

I am writing this review to warn the Omaha community about the highly illegal, dangerous, and predatory practices of this company's owner. I accidentally parked momentarily in a lot with incredibly poor, unclear signage while trying to find parking. Before the vehicle was even totally hooked up, I got into my car to move it. Knowing I was actively inside the vehicle, the owner of this towing company completely disregarded my safety and lifted the car into the air anyway. This reckless, criminal action trapped me inside my own vehicle suspended in the air, forcing me to eventually jump out to free myself and avoid severe bodily injury. A parking infraction never justifies a business owner actively endangering a human being's physical safety. Furthermore, while the truck was still completely stationary and had not even left the private property, the owner held my vehicle hostage and personally forced me to hand over $200 in cash on the spot to get my car down, refusing to provide a legally required itemized receipt. This is a direct violation of Omaha Municipal Code § 20-163, which strictly caps the absolute maximum private towing and administrative fee at $175 total--a fee that can only legally be charged with an itemized receipt. Forcing an on-site, undocumented cash transaction under physical threat is extortion. When I later called the company to professionally resolve this dispute, remind him of the city codes he personally broke, and request a refund of the extorted money, the owner completely lost his temper. He yelled at me, treated me like garbage, and hung up the phone. Because the owner himself is the one conducting these criminal acts and running this racket, I have officially filed a formal police report with the Omaha Police Department for unauthorized towing, reckless endangerment, and theft. I will also be taking him straight to Douglas County Civil Court to recover my money and hold him legally accountable. Stay far away from this corrupt business. read more

Heartland Towing, towed my vehicle over the weekend. There is no way for you to get your vehicle out of the lot where your car is. You cannot get your vehicle out until their normal business hours from 10 am to 3 pm, Monday through Friday. You calll the number and a guy tells you to go to a gas station and then he will give you directions from there on how to get to the impound lot. He only takes cash and he takes pictures of your drivers license, front and back and takes pictures of your whole vehicle registration, in his own personal phone. Which I think is absolutely wrong and criminal. Now he has everyones personal information at his disposal and for his own personal use. It is his own perwonal phone that he is taking these pictures of everyones personal information and now he can do with your personal information how he pleases. He can sell it to criminal people and they can completely ruin you, with all your peraonal information that he has. This is absolutely criminal and wrong. I dont know who to contact about this. I am sick to my stomach that this guy has all my personal information at his fingertips and he can do with it whatever he wants. I suggeat everyone who has to get their vehicle out of this lot, contact all your accounts, bank accounts, credit cards, everything. Because this guy and thus business is completely and totally in the wrong for doing what they are doing with getting everyones personal information. Because now they or he can do with your personal information whatever he wants to and whatever their criminal partners want to . I am livid about all of this. I am hoing to contact the BBB and the mayors hotline and do something about this. The guys, fake name of Jack, is all that is on the worthless piece of paper he gives you . He doesnt give his real name or full name. But, he now had all your information. See, this is morbidly wrong and criminal. And, the Omaha police said, they cant do anything about it. read more

My vehicle was towed on a early Saturday night. Tow business message said we cannot retrieve it until business hours 10-3 on monday. So $203 later we got her back on good condition. Except for my shoes.....has to walk through heavy oily sludge where car was parked. Shoes in the trash now and degreased drivers side floor mat & pedals. read more

I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong. I parked where I should not have parked. That being said humans match energy. I did my best to be respectful to the owner and he was equally respectful. The man is just doing the job he was hired for. All in all not a bad experience. A lot of the reviews are negative about the interactions had with the owner...I had the exact OPPOSITE experience. read more

Daughter was towed for parking in a business lot for fireworks on Friday. Went to pick up Monday the gentleman was very nice and friendly. Quick and easy process. $202.15. read more

Only interested in taking as much money as possible from you.Totally unhelpful in timely service , because they charge by the day.Example only registered owner can retrieve car , sounds reasonable, how do they know who the registered owner is? Legally they aren't privileged to that information they just want to make recovery take longer, more money. read more

I pay for my parking spot at an apartment building that has multiple signs that say "PRIVATE PARKING 24 HOURS A DAY - VIOLATORS WILL BE TOWED AT VEHICLE OWNERS EXPENSE" and after calling them to remove a car that was unauthorized to park in my spot, they refused to because "it was the weekend, and the property manager has to call them", although Nebraska statue says property owner or authorized tenant is to call. They're lazy and trash. read more

When they heard that my son's car was stopped in the middle of an intersection, they made it there faster than I could have ever imagined, quick, courteous, and I couldn't ask for more. Recommended! read more

Zero stars if I could. This so called company had NO physical address to start with. They answer the phone with "Towing". I asked for address so his response: "we don't have a physical address. Go yo Casey's and then we can give you verbal directions over the phone on how to get here." My car was not in their lot 5 minutes, I was charged $203.25! I parked where I have parked for now years, and now I get towed. I told this to the bald head man that supposedly runs this place and his response "well, youve been lucky". I told him I wanted to see my car to make sure no damage was done to or nothing missing, he said " Cant let you on the premises. Need id, keys, and cash only". ANOTHER red flag! No cc, or debit cards JUST CASH. Also the DOT # was not registered, so yes, another major red flag! This place is definitely not professionally run and highly doubt they are legit! read more

Heartland Towing - Notice the DOT number - Roadside Assistance Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I understand I parked where I should not have. But this man was extremely rude. I did not complain about paying since I know I was at fault. I called and asked where he was located. He said to meet him at the Casey's on 72nd and Grover and call him from there for directions. Finally made my way to him. When I arrived there was a few other people there as well as police officers. I told him I was here for my car make and model. He yelled at me and told me I would have to wait my turn. Understand. He told us all that we would have to wait until the owners of the cars in front of ours came to get their vehicles. I told him that was not possible, I had to return to work. He stated their was nothing he could do. I asked if he could move the cars around with the tow truck, he stated that once he towed a vehicle he would not hook them onto his tow truck to move again. Officer told him he needed to give everyone their vehicle back, since no one was refusing to pay his fees. He finally started moving vehicles. They do not care about the vehicles. On one of the vehicles the broke the front bumper from how they tow the vehicles. Another vehicle the back tires were not rotating and they just dragged it. Causing damage to more than 4 vehicles. My sister started recording, and he completely went off on her and yelled at her to go wait in her car. My sister stated she was not going anywhere and was going to record the entire process. The owner got into a heated argument with another man that was waiting there for his car because he was defending my sister from the owner. When I finally got my car, almost 3 hours later I asked him for a receipt and he was extremely upset that I had asked for one. He is obviously not reporting all income. He also stated to take cash only, and only gives change if he has it. Otherwise change is not provided. Paid $202.25. Karma will eventually come and bite this man where the son does not shine. read more

Doesn't even deserve one star. Towed my son's car when he was legally parked in a lot for work. When this person was contacted on Friday afternoon he said we couldn't pick up the car until Monday. So he can keep it for 3 days to rack up charges when he should never have been towed. What a piece of garbage. Anyone that hires this company should be ashamed. According to the cops, this company is known to tow vehicles at will without even a call for a complaint and they say there isn't anything anyone can do. How is this legal? read more

Horrible business. If you want the real address it's 6601-6691 C St Omaha, NE 68106 United States Go take your car back read more

My car was towed from a gas station parking lot and the battery was dead. When we went to pick up the car, he lifted it and dragged it out so we could jump it. When I got in the car to drive it away, the steering was off and the whole car was wobbling. I tried calling Heartland and he said there was no way his tow did anything like that. My car drove perfectly the day before. I took it to the shop and upon diagnostic, was told it was totally unsafe to drive. There are multiple bends in the suspension. I called Heartland back and asked for his insurance policy and he wouldn't give it to me. We'll be headed to small claims. It's unfortunate because he was helpful and we had a good conversation. I'm sad he won't take any responsibility. read more

This place is so dirty, unethical and probably running an illegal towing and theft operation, if we lived in city/state with more business oversight, this crime ring would be shut down and likely owners/perpetrators prosecuted. The tow truck driver actually told me he cruises apartment parking lots looking for towing opportunities. Those apartments where he cruises, are NP Dodge properties. That's where I was towed from, even though I am a paying tenant here and have been so for 18 months. I retrieved my car from a dirt road, under I-80, probably located at about 6601 C Street, from which it had been vandalized, burgled and had the catalytic converter ripped from its exhaust system, about $4,000 in damages by the time I got to it. read more

dog shit company, terrible attitude, had me show up at a fucking gas station after they stole my vehicle. 15 minutes late and counting. also wouldn't answer until they could keep car over night read more

If I could give negative stars I would. This man is absolutely awful, not only at services but as a human being as well. not only is he only open for few hours to screw everyone out of money and rack service charges up but does not actually do his job properly. After explaining my car should not have been towed he said not my problem pay the fees and get your car out. He then refused to give the vehicle back and told us to call the cops. After they arrived he tried to make up some bs story to get charges brought against us. After all the trouble we go to pay the fees and he doesn't have any change and says we'll go to a gas station. He is an absolutely horrible human being and shouldn't be allowed to run a business. As we finally were getting the vehicle back another disgruntled customer being screwed over showed up. Not only is everyone who has to go there but also get their vehicle from him is screwed over and displeased with him! He should not be allowed to continue screwing over hard working people just because he wants to sit on his lazy ass. As well as his address being listed under a different location and when arriving at the first location the mechanics warned us he was not a good person and to be aware. Any wrongfully treated customers or victims of this man and his "company" need to make sure to report him on the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to make sure he is responsible for what he is doing to people and held accountable for ripping people off. This cruel man should not be allowed to keep ripping people off and stuffing his pockets! This "business" is an absolute sham or joke and should be shut down immediately!!! read more

1 star is giving this crack head more credit than he deserves. Towed our company vehicle, held it hostage and refused to tell us his address (its 6601 C st) told us we needed the owner of the company to fly down or send a notarized snail mail letter allowing him to release it, just an excuse to suck more money out of us. We eventually got the police involved to which he reluctantly released the vehicle to us. At the same time we went to pick up our vehicle another guy got his car back and the plastic skid plate was ripped off and dragging on the ground. He refused to take responsibility. read more

Illegally tows cars, mysteriously cracked my windshield, tampered with my car, and refuses to give out his tow yards address or proof of payment.

Beware! They towed our vehicle & broke the rod that held the rear wheel to the axle. When we drove it off the lot we nearly had an accident on the interstate because the car was impossible to control due to the wheel wobbling so bad. We got off the interstate & took it to the closest repair shop. They said it was a clean break & not from wear. When we called the towing company they would NOT take any responsibility & said they only hook up to the frame. We have proof otherwise. Do NOT use this company. read more

I will give heartland TOWING a 5 star review . Let me explain why . In the towing industry you tow a vehicle off of private property its because people cant read the signs that say private property vehicle, s will be towed at owners expense . But yet they are mad at the owner of the tow truck company that is so childish that people cant act as grown ups & treat the owner of the tow company with respect because he,s not at fault because people can't read the sign's on private property . There's a old saying you treat people like you want to be treated you will be treated with the same respect . I fully believe that the reason he takes cash only on impounded vehicles is it protects him from you the vehicle owner and he does the same as all other tow companies in all 50 state,s so he's not wrong in taking cash only . One model all vehicle owners should follow is IF YOU DONT OWN THE PROPERTY YOU ARE PARKING ON ( DONT PARK THERE ) I am proud of the owner of this company heartland towing he is doing as I did when I started heartland towing in 1984 an ran it until I sold it in 2002 to my partner an then he sold it in I'm guessing 2008 it has changed owners a few times an now Joe own,s it . Remember respect will get you a long way in life . Big John read more

My friend had her car towed by this company and as she is from out of state and also not the owner of the car, the company demanded she notarize certain forms and ONLY snail mail was accepted instead of faxes. Upon notice that the car was towed, we checked other vehicles around us and noticed that they had no proof of permit allowing them to park. Also, on the website, it says they take credit card but the owner claims they only take cash. This business tows cars with out of state license plates and keeps the cars longer than necessary to drag out money. Customer service is a 0/10 as this man is rude and not helpful- not even providing an address for his business. He is inconsiderate of the fact that having your car towed is an unpleasant and tedious task already and seeks only to make the experience worse. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. read more

Getting your car towed (especially wrongly towed) is never fun. This guy knows how to make your experience even worse. Sir, I know you are not in the most popular line of work, but you don't need to be a butthole to people trying to rectify an already inconvenient situation. Basic human decency = non existent read more

STAY AWAY! I had my car towed because of parking in the wrong spot. This was on a Monday I was not able to get my car until Thursday because the owner is the only one that works there and if he is not there you have no way of getting your vehicle. On website says they are open until 6pm not true. I was not charged for extra days however it was a real inconvenience not having a car. When I finally got my car back I got home I noticed scratches on the outside and inside of my car I sent a text with the pictures of the scratches asking what happened to my vehicle I was told that he had taken pictures but refused to send them to me said he will keep them safe and secure and it was not his first rodeo. Not a very good business practice. Also says they take major credit cards and checks that is false have to walk to the convenience store to get cash a good way to hide money from the IRS!!!! Writing the BBB and turning him into the IRS for tax fraud never gave me a receipt. Have fun cowboy and your rodeo!!! read more

Terrible service. My car was towed without warning while I was away with family during the coronavirus crisis. When I came back and explained my situation, the guy didn't care. He still charged the same and gave terrible attitude toward me. I would rather be stranded on the side of the road than receive service from these guys. Completely ridiculous and lacking any type of empathy. read more

horrible company. was towed from an apartment complex, even though I was in the designated visitor parking. none of the cars parked right next to me were towed. went to go get my car and he claimed that the area was permit parking only, even though the apartment complex had confirmed it was visitor parking! he started getting angry and yelling, not something a business owner should do if they want good reviews. I felt extremely threatened by him. he was very rude over the phone and was not pleasant when I simply told him I was on my way to come pick up the car. we had to wait in the parking lot for a half hour before he was actually there. he also gave me no receipt or invoice, and did cash only. this guy is a thief. filing a complaint with the better business bureau as well. read more

I seriously don't know what is up with this guy, but he needs elocution lessons. There is no address listed on the very small "notice" given that you'll be towed, and then when you try to call him, he is the biggest mushmouth ever. Honestly, it's like he's chewing on marbles. The hardest part of getting my car back was figuring out what on earth this guy was saying on his voicemail so I could get a location. read more

I know you are not going to see many 5 stars on a review for your vehicle being towed. This guy was straight forward, reasonable price (for a tow). Was open when he said he would be and while not fun was quick and easy to get my car back. And yes I was parked in a no parking spot so I do accept I was the only one to blame for getting towed. read more

The owner is very rude! Makes it to where he is always unavailable and barely answers his phone. Usually business people try to work with you but this company seems to work against you!! Sad for a business owner!!!! read more

The encounter with owner, James was beyond deceitful. At least he gave me the right name of his company, so I could reference it here. There was no sign posted that his was the company in charge of the tow on that private drive, and had no proof that he had reason to tow. Seems like a petty way to make a little cash late at night on a weekend in a nice quiet neighborhood. I was forced to rate one star in order to post. read more
