Frequently Asked Questions

Practical tips for every service we offer — pick a category below, or just call and we'll walk you through it.

Emergency Towing

  • Move as far off the road as you safely can and turn on your hazard lights while you wait.
  • Dispatch is staffed 24/7/365, including holidays — call any time, day or night.
  • Have your exact location ready (mile marker, cross street, or landmark) to speed up response.
  • On a blind curve or narrow shoulder, stay clear of the vehicle rather than waiting inside it.
  • Pricing is quoted before a truck is dispatched, regardless of the hour.

Mountain Towing

  • Grade, traction, and cable angle all change on a slope — mention the specific road or grade when you call.
  • Stay with the vehicle only if it's safe to do so on gravel or dirt roads.
  • Summer storms and winter ice both change how a recovery is approached, so describe current conditions.
  • This service covers steep cabin driveways as well as Parkway shoulders.
  • Equipment is matched to the slope, so pricing can vary based on the terrain described.

Camper and RV Towing

  • Covers both engine-less travel trailers/fifth wheels and motorhomes — mention which type when you call.
  • A wheel sunk into a soft campsite pad is one of the most common calls; trailer dollies prevent axle damage.
  • If the camper and tow vehicle have become disconnected or are at an angle, they're often recovered separately.
  • This service also covers campsite and storage-lot pickups, not just roadside breakdowns.
  • Let dispatch know the camper or RV's make and model so the right equipment is sent.

Accident Towing

  • Stay inside the vehicle if it's not safe to exit; turn on hazard lights and move to the shoulder only if you can do so safely.
  • The scene is photographed before the vehicle is moved, which becomes part of your insurance paperwork.
  • An itemized invoice is provided that an adjuster can work from directly.
  • Dispatch can speak directly with your insurance company if needed.
  • A rollover or off-road accident usually calls for a wrecker rather than a standard flatbed.

Private Property Towing

  • This service requires authorization from the property's owner or manager — it's never a blind enforcement sweep.
  • Cabin rental overstays between guest turnovers are one of the most common calls.
  • Photo documentation of the vehicle and violation is available on request.
  • Property managers can set up a standing authorization rather than calling for each individual tow.
  • Have the property address, vehicle description, and reason for the tow ready when you call.

Long-Distance Towing

  • Pricing is quoted as a flat rate for the full trip based on mileage and vehicle type, not a per-mile surprise.
  • A little advance notice helps line up the right truck and driver for longer hauls.
  • RVs, campers, and trailers can usually be hauled long-distance as well as cars.
  • Have your starting point and exact destination ready when you call for an accurate quote.
  • This is the right service for getting a broken-down vehicle home across state lines, not just to the nearest shop.

Vehicle Lockout

  • Stay near the vehicle and have ID ready to confirm ownership when the technician arrives.
  • Modern door seals and electronics call for inflatable wedges and long-reach tools, not an old slim-jim.
  • A dead key fob battery can look like a lockout — mention if the fob isn't responding at all.
  • Locked-out cabin guests are one of the most common calls in this area.
  • Pricing is the same regardless of the hour — no separate overnight surcharge.

Jump Start

  • Mountain driving — frequent stops, accessories at overlooks, steep grades — drains batteries faster than flat-road commuting.
  • Commercial-grade packs are carried that work on diesel trucks, not just passenger cars.
  • If the battery won't hold a charge after starting, that's worth mentioning to the technician.
  • Have your vehicle's make and model ready when you call.
  • A jump start is sometimes only a temporary fix — ask the technician if a tow to a shop makes more sense.

Gas Delivery

  • Enough gas is brought to reach the nearest open station — not a full tank.
  • Let dispatch know whether your vehicle takes gasoline or diesel.
  • The stretch between Pigeon Forge and the national park is a common spot to run dry — overlooks tempt drivers further than the tank allows.
  • Pricing covers both the service call and the fuel itself, quoted before dispatch.
  • This service is available throughout the Parkway corridor and surrounding pull-offs.

Flat Tire Change

  • If you have a usable spare, a technician can typically swap it in a few minutes roadside.
  • Many newer vehicles don't include a spare — in that case, a tow to the nearest tire shop is the next step.
  • The curvy foothill roads and gravel shoulders around Pigeon Forge are especially hard on tires.
  • A patch or repair is a shop job; roadside service swaps to the spare only.
  • Mention if the flat happened on a blind curve or narrow shoulder so the technician can park safely.
