    For 22 years the wife and I have been vacationing in Avon. Finally a truck issue popped up this year. Randy took care of it like the pro he is! Thanks for fixing the tire "Fat Daddy"!

    Soft shoulder area Route 12 North OBX.

    Found myself in quite a predicament while vacationing in OBX. Pulled off the road onto the shoulder/grass area while my wife (that's where my real trouble began) looked for directions to a Dollar General. My truck was too heavy and the marshy ditch sucked me in! Dropped into 4-low and made it even worse. Called OBX Towing after hours and Randy (owner) answered my call. Gave him my location and he responded very quickly. I was concerned with how my truck was situated up against the embankment that by pulling it out some damage would be done. Randy scoffed and said, "bet it doesn't get a single scratch!" He was right! Had me out in 2 minutes flat and not a single dent/scratch! Randy came prepared and clearly knows what he's doing! Hope to never meet him again (because of his line of work lol), but would call in a heartbeat if I am down here and find myself in a sticky situation. Responsive, prepared, fair price.

    OBX Towing really saved my husband and I when we broke down in Avon, NC. We were over an hour from our vacation house and over 4 hours from home. Not only did they tow our vehicle back to their shop, they diagnose the problem (fuel pump), drove an hour one way to pick up the necessary part, drove us to the next town so we could rent a car, and fix our car in 24 hours so we could return home the next day. Wonderful guys. The owner has created a culture of assisting others in need. Their price for towing and the repair work was very fair. We were thankful to find them.

    Randy drove by us when we were stuck in the sand on the side of the road, struggling to get out.

    Island Convenience - Horrible picture of the store entrance

    Just Ok. If you're really desperate then this is your place, but there's plenty of other places to…read morestop. Pros: wide variety of different items from fishing stuff to hardware items to normal household and baby times. The store is conveniently located with gas and is always busy - you can get a lot of the essentials here. Cons: The store is very unorganized with items in multiple aisles and items are old - Specifically I came across I really poor looking package of baby bottle nipples from 2008. During the visit, there were 5 people standing behind the counter and not one would assist us with getting a propane refill, we were told to come back 5 hours later. Staff seemed disengaged and could careless about ensuring repeat customer business. Overall I'm not likely to return.

    I'm camping at Ocracoke Island and ran out of propane. I was able to call the store and was told…read moreno problem even if they were closed. I only had to call within 24 hours and they would have somebody at the store to meet me; which I felt this service was amazing on their part. I did arrive at the store during working hours and was able to get my propane filled. My overall impression of the place was that everybody was just so nice and happy and really this could be a teaching lesson to other industries and maybe even government services on customer service relationship. These people could've just done their business and sent me off but I really felt that they cared.
