We got stuck at nanakuli sack n save, car refuses to start. RJ was quick, fast with getting to our location and hooking up the tow. He was kind and friendly not mention he's tow truck was clean, very comfortable. RJ was very informative that instead of taking the car home. He advised us to just drop it off at Toyota repair shop to save money on another tow. Thank you. After our long day he made it easier for us to relax about a few things we won't have to worry about in the morning. Great service all around. read more

See all

I think his name was RJ! He was SUPER nice! A little late of a review, but basically my car ran out of gas! (I know.. I know..) on the side of the highway!! (It was actually super dangerous) and GEICO called some Towing company for me, 2hrs later and there I am sitting on the side of the road waiting for them.. to be fair.. it WAS rush hour. But still.. I was SO HOT and thirsty! I called them again and they instead referred me to Tip Tows, and he showed up within 40mins, he was SUPER nice and towed me to the nearby gas station, AND junk started my battery. It was so refreshing how quick they were!! Thank you so much for saving me! read more

Solid towing company! Thanks again RJ for quick and professional service! Got there faster than anticipated and got me to the shop before they closed! read more

Needed a tow from Nanakuli to Town... it being a weeknight at 10 PM, I could only assume that the tow company would arrive 1.5 to 2 hours later. I was wrong! Estimated arrival time was 11 o'clock, RJ, the owner of Tip Tows arrived in half an hour, 10:30 PM! I don't know anything about tow trucks, but this truck was dope! He hooked up my SUV in less than 10 minutes, and we were on the road within 15 from his arrival! The drive to town was a bit long, but he was very personable in the car, we shared stories about the mainland as well as Hawaii life now. He made my cousin and I feel very comfortable, and we laughed the whole way! I was initially going to tow my car back to my house but he made the recommendation to go straight to the dealership to avoid any additional tow fees. That alone speaks volume of his character! He was thinking one step ahead of us! If you need a tow, I would suggest him 100x over! He cared about the safety of my car, and even made sure we called a Lyft or Uber before he left so we wouldn't be waiting a long time and even turned away a tip. Again speaks volume of his character! So, How could I not write this review?! Service was fast and excellent, my car strapped on safe... what more can you ask for! If you need a tow, use him! read more

My car wouldn't start, the electric e-brake wouldn't release and it was parked in a pretty tight area. My insurance company called out Honolulu towing to do the job--they couldn't. It seemed like the tow truck driver was making every excuse possible so he wouldn't have to do the job. Thank god i sent them away! Tip Tows came out next. They arrived within 20min and were friendly and efficient. I felt like my car was in good hands. UPDATE: had to get me car towed from the shop to the dealer and used Tip Tows again. Same exceptional service!! read more

Really awesome service and the cheapest when I've asked around. Car died and was left In Parking lot after work at 4am in morning. Couldn't jump it, so called around different towing companies and Tip Tows was the cheapest rate from Navy Exchange to Kapolei. My tires were also in bad shape yet he took a chance on taking it on freeway. Of course if anything else happened he would have charged it but he still took it. He also suggested I get roadside with my insurance for the CHEAPEST RATE! Really great service They are still a great service... so my car got a flat and because of them I remembered to call my insurance company. Lo and behold who do I get..... got a different guy(forgot his name but still SUPER AWESOME)!wanted to see if I could first get my spare on instead of tow but I did not have the correct tools to set up. So got tow AND my boyfriend and I were able to catch a ride with him back from moanalua to Kapolei. read more

These guys are flat out awesome! They came to rescue me at the airport when I had a flat tire. I usually will call someone at home but it was late. Here I was coming back from a work meeting, in the parking structure...tired out of my mind. I remember having had seen their tow truck driving on the road and with a name like "Tip Tows"...it was easy to recall. So I looked it up on yelp, called them and they answered real quick. They were on their way immediately in about 15 minutes. They were so quick to change out my spare tire and so friendly and considerate. I was out of there so fast. It was so reasonable price wise too. Great experience! Thank you for such an easy and smooth transaction so I can go to sleep in my own bed after a long trip. read more

After a stressful day dealing with Alamo rental car roadside assistance, RJ came to our rescue. Our VW beetle rental car would not start and we were stranded next to Laniakea Beach. We were picked up by the first tow truck only to be dropped off minutes later in the middle of nowhere on the side of the road due to a miscommunication (the tow truck had picked up the wrong car). After calling roadside assistance again, RJ from TipTows towing showed up. He said he was assigned to pick up only the car but no passengers. Seeing that we would have been left on the side of the road again (at 10:00pm and and this time without a vehicle), luckily he took us with him in the truck. After dropping the car off at the HNL airport Alamo location, we were supposed to find our own transportation back to Waikiki but we are forever thankful that RJ took us to our hotel after a long day of dealing with rental car problems. Thanks again RJ! read more

Like a dummy, I managed to lock my keys in the car while out fishing today. AJ from Tip Tows came through and unlocked my car pronto, even though I was way up out of his usual service area. Super fast, professional service! Mahalo AJ and Tip Tows for saving me from a 40 mile walk to my spare key. read more

So I've never had a pleasant experience with a towing type of situation. RJ I believe his name is was SUPER professional. I called and was told 15-20 minutes before the truck got there- I didn't believe it so I settled for a wait. Less than 5 minutes after hanging up, the truck was there. He hooked up in under 2 minutes and even parallel parked my car in front of my house. Not gonna lie he did a better job of parking my car than I do! So if you need a tow call these guys cause they are freaking magical. read more

My husband's car died on the H1 on ramp today on his way to work. Not only was he late for work but he wasn't in the best place on the road. I was at work and couldn't leave to help him. I called our insurance company and they reached out to Tip Tows. Within minutes of receiving the call from Geico, the driver called me personally, told me where he was and how long it would take him to get to my husband. He obtained detailed information on where exactly my husband was and he was there within 15 minutes. He quickly got my husband's car hooked up and gave him a ride with the car! The driver was very nice and helpful! I am so thankful to them for making sure my husband's car was quickly and safely taken care of! I wouldn't hesitate to call them again! Thank you for putting this wife's mind at ease! read more

Just wanted to say my tow driver was awesome today! My car had to get towed from Kalihi to pearl city in the most awful traffic but my driver Keoni made it a good drive in traffic. Very entertaining, drove very well and carefully with my Jeep in the back, definitely in the right business mahalo tip tows for having not only the quickest Tows but also awesome drivers that make a crappy situation a little better with laughs. Will definitely request you guys should I or someone I know need a Tow read more

Adam from Tip Tows in Aiea was the unsung hero of the day! After waiting more than 2 hours for a different tow company that never showed, Adam arrived within 30 minutes of getting the phone call.

Tip Tows - Adam and his tow truck! - Towing Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Shout out to AJ from Tip Tows for coming to a remote location in Haleiwa to get my dead Mini Cooper to the repair shop. Very professional and experienced with loading and unloading my vehicle even in a tricky area where the car died. Highly recommend this towing company and AJ specifically - we appreciate the prompt and professional detail given today! read more

My car had to be towed from Hawaii Kai to the dealership in town. My insurance company sent Tip Tow to help me out. I rode back to the dealership with the tow driver, AJ. AJ was courteous, professional and sympathetic to my predicament. We had a very enjoyable conversation on the way back into town. Mahalo AJ for being so pleasant and for helping me adjust my negative attitude. Aloha. read more

You know Murphy's Law? Anything that can go wrong will go wrong? That seemed to be especially true for me last night when I had my car filled with food, gifts and my friend's children as we were on our way to a get together and of course of all nights to crap out my car chose Christmas Eve. Thankfully I have roadside coverage through my insurance company but two tweens, food, presents, Christmas Eve and my insurance company sending someone with no reviews on Yelp? I was a wee bit concerned but let me tell you I must have been on Santa's good list because this guy was an angel. He came within the time that was promised and was not only polite, and professional but seeing the food, gifts, etc in the car and most likely the panic on my face he made conversation with me and the kids to help bring my tension level down from 1000 to it's normal range of 10. And let's not even discuss the fact that he beat our "roadside rescue" team to the scene. My vehicle was towed to my spot of choice and while it is my hope to not have to have a vehicle towed again, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this service because anyone who isn't grinchy on Christmas Eve is alright with me. Thanks so much for saving our night! read more

I've honestly never been so quick to write a review on a company until now. I'm really not one to write yelp reviews in general unless I really feel passionately about the service I received and BOOOOYYYY LEMME TELL YOU A LIL SOMETHIN ABOUT THIS COMPANY RIGHT HERE! I'm writing this right after arriving home, thanks to the help of RJ. I work in Waipahu and after I got off, I got into my car and it wouldn't start. It's pretty much 9:30 at night and I'm thinking to myself, "Wow, really? Could this car give me problems at a more inconvenient time?" I'm over here looking for tow companies who I could get to come out and assist me. I called up Cachola Towing because it was the first in my results and it went to voicemail. I left a voicemail and waited a bit but got no call back. Mind you, a girl is tired after being at work since 7:30 a.m. and I just wanted to get home as soon as possible. I called up Tip Tows to see if I'd have any luck there and my call was immediately answered by RJ. He asked where I was at, asked about what was happening with the car to try to figure out what might be going on with the car, gave me some quotes over the phone, and told me it'd be about 30ish minutes. He got there faster than he estimated and I can't even tell you how much more appreciative I was for this. As soon as he got out of the truck, the first words out of his mouth were "I'm gonna see if I can try to save you a couple bucks here" and those are words I've never heard in the history of me having someone assist me with car troubles. I was willing to pay for the tow but he was sweet enough to see if he could jump start it and save me money that way. Might be a small gesture to some, but I've really never had anyone who's tried to save me money while helping me with my car so it meant a lot. RJ was able to jump start my car and even managed to figure out that the problem was my battery instead of my alternator, which I had thought was the culprit. Instead of paying somewhere around $150-$170ish for the tow from my working place to my home, it was just under $100. He told me I'd be fine going home but to make sure to change my battery as soon as I can. And he assured me that if for some reason I did end up dying out on the way home, I could call him up again and he'd come out to help me. This man is definitely a work of art. I can see why this company has such a great rating and why there are so many reviews on him. It's all well-deserved. It's so nice to see there are still people out there with great customer service. Thanks so much, RJ and Tip Tows! Fingers crossed that I won't need it, but I'll be back to you folks if I ever need any assistance again in the future! read more

A man in a Jaguar passed a Mini that had broken down by the side of the road. Being a kindly driver, he stopped and fixed a tow-rope to it and began towing it to the nearest garage. After 5 minutes of towing, a Porsche passed them at high speed. The Jaguar driver was not going to be outdone by a Porsche, so, forgetting that he had a Mini in tow, slammed his foot down and the Jaguar and Porsche indulged in a high-speed race down the road, the Mini and it's occupant trailing wildly about at the end of the rope frantically trying to attract their attention and failing. A Police car saw them and gave chase. The Police driver radioed back to Headquarters "Sarge, you'll never going to believe this, I've just seen a Porsche and a Jaguar neck and neck doing 150 mph - and a guy in a Mini flashing his lights, blowing his horn and trying to overtake them!" Ok, enough with the jokes. If you ever were stuck on the side of the road you probably weren't laughing unless you have a funny story how you ended up there. In this case there is no funny story. I also couldn't find someone with a Jaguar to help tow my car so I could write about some crazy adventure. I had roadside coverage so I called and when they finally came, the driver told me that they because my car is lowered that I take the chance of them messing up my bumper. Hmmm I asked what are the chances of that happening? He told me he doesn't know and asked if I want him to tow my car or not? I said that's ok. So I called my mechanic who told me that they sold their tow truck and to call Tip Tows. "Tip tows?" WTH is Tip Tows and are they good as I told them what the first tow truck said. He said this guy is good and to give them a call 222-3432 and ask for Big Boy and tell him that Kenny said to call. I called him, well I called the number and just asked for a tow truck and told them what the other tow truck driver said about my car being lowered and stuff. They said it should be ok. Well after 30 min of waiting he finally shows up. He took a look at my car and I told him what the other guy said about my car being lowered and how it might mess up my bumper. He told me that it isn't a problem. Btw I like this guy's tow truck better as it looks newer than the old scratched up and dirty one that came first. As he hooked up my car up, (yes I was watching him all the way) it didn't even look like my bumper wasn't even going to be a problem. I don't even know what the first guy was talking about but then again it could of been this guy knows what he is doing. Another plus was that they take Visa, Mastercard, or debit unlike the other guys who took only cash. Hey come on, who carries that much cash on them anyways now days. All in all, this company is right on. Took care of my baby from the beginning right down to the end. If you need a tow, or a jump start, and you can't find a Jaguar to pull you, I highly recommend calling Tip Tows for all your towing needs. read more

A friend recommended Tip Tows to me when my other friend's car got stuck at Ala Moana in December. The driver came a few minutes earlier than they said they would, which was a nice sign. Everything went smooth, and the driver treated the car with respect, which isn't always the case in these situations with other companies that I have dealt with. So based on my friend's recommendation and this nice experience, I have been recommending Tip Tows to my clients, as I have an automotive business. So far we had 4 clients use their service for towing and their feedback has been nothing but positive. For a towing business, this kind of feedback is usually unheard of. Great job guys! read more

By far the best towing experience I've ever had. Service was excellent and fast, and most of all AFFORDABLE. I was worried at first because the body kit on my mustang makes it a little lowered. But the driver took excellent care, even got out of the truck to adjust the lift about 4 times so it wouldn't scrape down the driveway. Had it towed back to my house but only with street parking. My dude (sorry I forgot his name) even did a 3 point turn to make sure my car would be facing the right way on the street as to not risk getting a ticket. Highly recommend this company if you need a tow. read more

They tell you the time they going to the place of pick up via text message and phone call. RJ is the one who helps you out and send his people to help you out. It was a fast service getting my car to the autoshop after my car wont start at all. If you pay by credit card you have to pay the processing fee of $10 plus the real price of the service. It was all worth it for a great and awesome service! read more

Tip Tows - Mahalo Tip Tows - Towing Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

Had a 1am late night tire blow out on the H1 in Aiea while I already had my spare on. Began to search for "tow service" on my iPhone. To be honest, Tip Tow was my third call, but THEY WERE THE FIRST AND ONLY ONES TO ACTUALLY ANSWER! RJ was super cool. Told him where I was stranded and where I needed to go, got me a super good deal, and was there in 15-20mins. Super fast for being late night. They even send text messages prior to arriving to give you an ETA so you are not waiting in the dark. As I'm writing this review, the other guys haven't even called back yet. When he arrived, before anything happened, he made sure I was alright and greeted me with an ice cold bottled water. Hooked up my truck and we were out. The towruck was well kept and maintained. Clean inside and out. This is hands down some of the best service you will receive on this island no matter what the industry. These guys have awesome customer service; something I think is rare to find on this island let alone in an emergency service. I super recommend these guys to anyone. You will not be disappointed. I created this yelp account just so I could write this review. I stand by everything I wrote. read more

My company's car wouldn't start, tried everything and nothing would turn it on. Unfortunately it had to get towed back to my home and fortunately I got a hold of this company. They did an outstanding job from start to finish. Fast response, polite staff, they did even more than were supposed to to help me out. Their prices are very reasonable. I had RJ as my tow driver and would like to say thank you very much for towing my company's car and trying to help us out in a very complicated location. In case we ever need a tow again (hopefully never again) we will definitely use them again. Aloha and mahalos for your service! read more

Gave me estimated time and then called when close. He was very professional, thorough and great attitude. Customer service like this is hard to find in Hawaii anymore -- really appreciated his times and efforts. read more
