Elijah came to my rescue today while I was stranded on the 99 heading home for the holidays. My car's fail safe was activated while I was driving in a 2-lane area of the freeway, there were barricades on either side of the lanes (no shoulders) and I couldn't reach a nearby exit before my car completely shut down. I created a huge amount of traffic, so I assumed that after contacting a local towing company, it would take a long time for them to get through the traffic and load my car. Elijah happened to be passing by in the traffic, and offered to help me off the freeway to wait for my tow truck. I was only 5 minutes from my car shop so he took me there before heading to his scheduled job. (We also coordinated with the tow truck that was originally called). Elijah definitely didn't need to step in, but he really went above and beyond to help out. He saw I was in need, and was very knowledgeable and very friendly. I was pretty shaken up about being on the freeway and he made me feel at ease. Highly recommend these guys. Good people. Thank you, Elijah!! read more

So great! Can't overstate it. Elijah saved us in a big way when our 30,000lb motorhome suffered an axle bolt failure on a busy highway. The knowledge, effort and positive attitude of this young man was truly remarkable. My wife and I greatly appreciate the work JohnBoy Towing did for us in Paso Robles. Response time was very fast. Pricing was very fair. 6 stars! read more

My family and i came from a town far away from paso robles and went to get wet in the waterpark not knowing we left the keys inside the trunk. My mom and little sister were stressed and the tow mans wife was super nice she calmed my little sis and my mom and her husband saved the week by saving us from being stuck in paso robles and coming from lost hills read more

This company has great service. We got trapped outside our vehicle with no help from AAA. We called Johnboys and had help within 15 minutes. The service rep (Mickey) was very professional and got us unlocked quickly. Highly recommend this company! read more

These guys were amazing, we own a catering company and our van got stuck in the mud NYE from pouring rain. They were responsive and helpful, they came quickly and got our van unstuck. Super helpful and so courteous especially because it was New Years Day, so glad they were open! read more

Johnboys Towing - Towing out our van! - Towing Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Even though my driver showed up, almost 90 minutes late, I did not have a problem with it when he explained to me what he was working on. The driver dispatched to help me, Elijah, was professional, courteous, and could not be more helpful in getting my trailer pulled out from the mud. This company has invested into training their team and supplying them with top quality hardware to take care of any situation big or small. I was super impressed with Elijah today. Of course they're not afraid to charge for their services and they are not cheap but boy are they good. I will definitely use them again in the future. read more

Johnboys Towing - Towing Near Me - Paso Robles, California

See all

My Teslas hit a minor pothole and the entire wheel shattered. I called a handful of local tow truck companies before happening upon Johnboys. They arrived in about 20 minutes with a flat bed and within minutes we were hooked up and heading home. $125 seemed pretty reasonable to me. I'm terrible at name, but my guy was great. Personably, friendly and very professional. read more

Gordon is an absolute legend! Our poor van got stuck in the mud and he came out to help about 45 minutes after we called. We were super worried his tow truck would also get stuck, the area our van was in seemed incredibly muddy and narrow. Gordon was incredibly careful and professional- got us out in no time! Phenomenal service and decently priced too! read more

Gordon did a fantastic job. It's been about 2 weeks ago. He towed a motorcycle for us. We were very anxious about how the motorcycle would be handled. He was perfect with the bike,and just as perfect dealing with anxious clients. Johnboys charged $100 less than either C&D towing or AAA quoted for the 6 mile tow. Highly recommend them! read more

Johnboys gave great service, quick response and driver very helpful and courteous. Many thanks read more

Absolutely great customer service! Needed a battery jump, called up my insurance who put us in touch with Johnboy's. Gave an estimate of an hour wait time but instead showed up within 20-30 mins. Had us back on the road in no time! Thank you Gordon and Johnboy's Towing! read more

Good experience with the red bearded driver (sorry, forgot name). My truck overheated on the 101 freeway just past the NB Camp Roberts rest stop. I called and the dispatcher was pleasant, courteous, and polite. It was a Friday at 2:30pm. Was quoted $350 to get towed back to Santa Maria. Driver showed up about in about 40 minutes. It was not a flatbed. It was an old school tow truck that lifts up and carries just the drive wheels of your vehicle. If you want a flatbed, you have to specifically request it when you call. During the drive, I asked about the pricing and was informed the drivers work M-F 8-5 at regular time and the company charges a fee based on that, then take into account if they are going to still be on the tow after 5pm. After 5pm, the driver is paid overtime and therefore, the company must reflect an increased tow fee. The later the time, the higher the fee. If I had called earlier, my charge would have been slightly lower. If I had called later, the charge would have been around $450. Driver was cool. Not real chatty tho, kinda quiet most of the drive. Nice guy. Secured my vehicle good on the tow apparatus and was stable the whole way. Made it home safe and sound. Thank you Johnboys towing. read more

I blew a tire 25 miles north of Paso. Called AAA but didnt hear from them soon enough and from prior experience didn't expect them to get there for hours. Called Johboys' towing and Juaquin was there in less than an hour. He was smiling and mades my bird (in a cage) and I got in the cab of the truck safely. Then put my car on the flat bed and took met to get a new tire. It was just me and pretty scary on the shoulder of 101 with the big trucks flying by. I felt taken care of and was surprised all went so well. Thanks VERY much! read more

these two employees showed up on site.. decided to shove my pickup 10 ft forward while in park .. also the wheel was turned out and the new tire was peel off the rim and also bent the wheel .. akso the same two guys backed up over a gate motor and smashed it. Theses two guys had deliberately caused the damages and left the site without disclosing the damaged property.. now I have major expenses and loss of income.. I would say these two employees are dishonest and I want my truck fixed now . a simple phone call would have been easy read more

Locked my keys in my trunk, tried to callState Farm to get roadside assistance(which to this moment I still have not received an email or call back). Ended up just calling this tow company. The lady on the phone was straight to the point, friendly and helpful. Joaquin opened my car, helped with retrieving my keys even though it was a hassle. He was awesome! read more

Called when our dog accidentally locked himself in the car while at the car wash, John boys was responsive and got him out as quickly as possible! Joaquin was extremely nice and definitely saved the day. Thanks again!! read more

No trucks available in Paso Robles the entire night so what is the POINT OF HAVING THIS BUSINESS WTF

This company is the biggest rip off!!! They tow your car, then charge you daily storage fees. Then they tell you they sent you a letter, but they don't have to have it certified, so they can lie to you!! This place needs to be shut down. Rude receptionist who shouldn't be working with the public!! read more

Didn't even use them for a tow . Just driving not even with a load driver has his head buried in his behind. Right lane is for passing not nape time. read more

Five stars for Johnboy's towing with John (owner) and Jeremy for getting me out of the muck with a John Deere Backhoe, a Kubota Tractor and Toyota FJ Cruiser - all in the same day! Stupid is as stupid does as I was going through the vineyard and looking for any new squirrel or gopher activity as well as checking the status of the vines. My FJ cruiser got stuck on a side road - between the ag fence and a row of vines. First stupid mistake especially this time of year and our rainy season. No problem, get the Kubota tractor to pull out the FJ. Hooked them up and eased on the Kubota and got the Kubota stuck in the muck. Second stupid mistake. My neighbor has a large John Deere Backhoe and has taken out many stuck equipment, so he decided to help pull out the Kubota and the FJ. We got the Kubota hooked up and started to pull it out and then the backhoe got stuck in the muck. Third stupid mistake. I called Johnboy's towing baed on my neighbors positive experience with them previously in extracting a stuck garbage truck. (That's another story.) Called John and he set an appointment for the next day on Sunday. John and Jeremy arrived on time and professionally winched all three vehicles out of the muck with no damage to the ag fence or vineyard row or the vehicles. Amazing and not an easy task given the hill angle and unstable ground. True professionals and good guys. Don't be stupid like I was, but if it ever happens and you need a winch/towing service call Johnboy's Towing. Highly recommended. read more

After my truck broke down pulling my 44' 5th wheeler in Paso Robles Johnboys were called. Their truck was not adequate to pull my size 5th wheeler. The driver, who was very professional, agreed with me his tow truck was not able to take me where I needed to go without causing tremendous damage to my 5th wheeler. So he suggested dropping me off 1/2 mile up the street in an empty lot until my vehicle had been fixed. Given the short distance he said it would be wrong to charge me full price of $375/hr and would call his boss to at least request a discount. His boss, whoever he is, refused and charged me full price, $375 for a 1/2 mile towing! I would consider an alternative tow company before calling Johnboys Paso Robles, your wallet will thank you! read more

I was towed by them after an auto accident, the driver was nice and courteous. The problems came after they had my car on there lot. They charged me an outrageous price for 5 miles of towing. They said they would only let my insurance cover it if my insurance agent goes down there personally to pay the bill. They wouldn't bill them, which I personally thought was rude plus if she didn't come by before 3:45 they would charge me another full day even though my car had still only been there 1 day. If I ever need a tow I won't use them. read more

These guys are the best , don't bother calling anyone else . Paco was our driver , friendly and courteous . Thank you !
