absolutely top-notch service! The team was professional, fast, and incredibly helpful during a stressful situation. They showed up quickly, handled my vehicle with care, and kept me informed the whole time. . If you ever need a towing company you can truly rely on, this is the one. Highly recommend!! read more

Several years ago, I had one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a towing company. I parked my AWD Mercedes at a restaurant in Auburn while I went inside to order food with a friend. While we were inside, we heard my car alarm and looked outside to see my car being towed down the road. Because it was being towed with only the front wheels off the ground, the rear tires were sliding sideways instead of rolling. Both rear tires were destroyed during the tow. We immediately drove to AET Towing and actually arrived BEFORE my car did. We explained that my vehicle had just been taken and that it had been towed while I was a paying customer at the restaurant. I later spoke with the restaurant manager, who told me they had not called for my vehicle to be towed. AET understands the law requires the commercial business to CALL for a specific vehicle to tow but instead acts like sharks illegally patrolling. The tow itself caused catastrophic damage to my AWD Mercedes. It was towed sideways with tires not spinning but instead dragging down the road while the car alarm went off. An AWD Mercedes simply cannot be towed by only the front wheels. The differential was destroyed, an axle was bent, the starter became misaligned, and the vehicle, which had only around 50,000 miles, was ultimately considered a total loss and totaled. Instead of receiving any help, I was charged for the tow and then charged storage fees for the two weeks the car sat in their lot because it was no longer drivable. I had to hire a different towing company to get it out of their lot as they refused. They also towed other cars blocking it in within their gated lot to cost me several extra days of storage fees. When I tried to discuss the situation with the staff, I was met with profanity, told to leave, and threatened with trespassing rather than having my concerns addressed. I also attempted to seek help afterward but was unable to get anywhere with the local authorities or attorneys I contacted. It seems they have friends in town who support these activities. This experience cost me my vehicle and thousands of dollars, and I never received any compensation. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend AET Towing to anyone. read more

Towed while moving into apartment at the grove. no info on how to get my car back ........

Got towed from parking garage even though I had all parking passes for car. Questioned them why I was towed and said I shouldn't be paying. They got a attitude immediately, started cussing me out, getting all up in my face like they were gonna do something, said he wanted to "knock me out" and when I leave one of the employees tried to follow me home in his own car. Just some people who really need the $125 tow fee read more

Don't eat here and walk across the street to go to the bank, you will get booted and they will not be helpful. Ordered food at 2:03, went across the street to chase bank around 2:15-220 pm to deposit 1 check, and was back before 230. $20 of food gets maybe 15 minutes of un-harassed patronage. Parking lot was empty, there wasn't an immediate need for parking, just unadulterated greed & kickbacks between auburn express and Guthrie's downtown. These are the people that make society the worst read more

Gone for 4 minutes and towed. Empty parking lot and no reason to tow. From out of town visiting my college daughter.

Daughter pulled into friends apartment complex. Was told by tenants where exactly to park. Went inside and came out to car towed under 10 minutes. Predatory towing company. read more

Predatory tow company. Rude upon pickup. Made me walk a long way to the impound yard when they took a golf cart. Towed as a resident from my own spot at the Ōliv. Shame on the Ōliv for employing them. read more

READ THE REVIEWS, DO NOT BOTHER TO CALL THEM. I'm genuinely curious how a predatory business like this is still able to provide service to people. Having to wait 2+ hours, then charged $220 after a mere 5-6 mile trip is asinine. The BBB, city of auburn, and Alabama state regulatory affairs will have a field day with this "business" read more

ZERO STARS IF I COULD! This towing company in Auburn is widely known for its predatory practices. A true money grab! They are ruthless when towing and incredibly rude to customers retrieving their vehicles. read more

My vehicle was towed from my own apartment complex despite having a valid parking pass displayed and my car tag properly registered. The tow occurred at approximately 8 a.m, not during later hours of the night, which raised serious concerns about the tow. When i went in to retrieve my vehicle, I was required to sign a release form stating that my car was undamaged before I was even allowed to inspect it. Additionally, the staff refused to review or acknowledge evidence showing that my parking pass was clearly visible at the time of the tow. This experience makes me believe there is questionable business practices, and it appears that the company may be unfairly targeting college residents, as i know many people who have had similar experiences. With the upcoming holiday season, I'm concerned that these practices may continue or worsen. I strongly believe this situation, and many others, should attract the attention of the local community to get further investigations going. If I could leave no stars I would. This is absolutely insane and needs to be stopped. read more

If your car has been towed in Auburn then this is the place. Super shady and will tow even if you have a valid parking pass.

these guys don't have a single brain between them. they started towing my car as I was sitting inside the restaurant eating, came out made sure they knew I was in there and they said "sorry already up" ended up having to go down there and pay them, then went into the restraunt and made them pay for the tow. mainly the big African American tower, as he has rocks rolling around in his head. read more

Quite possibly the most unprofessional, rude, and backwards management from a company I've ever delt with. It's a miracle that whoever answers the phone hasn't driven their business into the ground or gotten some kind of report from the government. They provide absolutely zero value to the community and the price for holding a car for no more than 2 hours is comparable to those who price gouge during natural disasters. read more

I made a Yelp account for this. My car was parked in a guest parking, 24 hour spot. I parked there at 10pm. woke up the next morning to grab something out of my car at 9am, then I left for class. 9:17 my car was towed. this is wrong. they said that the 24 hour spot is not what that means and I cannot get my car back unless i pay the tow fee. horrible horrible horrible. read more

I watched them put a boot on an emergency service vehicle outside of a Subway while I was eating lunch.

I parked at the subway on the auburn campus while working out of town for a different fire department. came back after eating to find that they had booted a clearly marked emergency vehicle. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. Towed from a parking lot that had two cars in it. Capacity was 20. This company has no other purpose than to torment and overcharge struggling students. Since they towed my car, I had to WALK to their establishment to retrieve it and got two beautifully painful and bleeding blisters. Thank you Auburn and war eagle I guess read more

Towed my car from my own driveway at 6 am, told the POLICE INCORRECT information, such as it was at 10 (wrong) and the model of the car was wrong. No warning, ive been parking there for almost 2 years, right next to my front door. The incompetence and criminality is astounding. Praying on AU students, who are in the lowest of the lowest tax brackets. Guess we live in USSR now, these people would LOVE putin! read more

Incompetent towing company. I've called them a dozen times this semester to get someone out of my spot and they haven't come once. Yesterday all spots were taken at my complex, so I had to park one spot out of the lines. I was towed immediately... by Auburn express towing. They must need new management. read more

EXCEEDINGLY RUDE WAN AT FROMT DESK. My brother was in town for our step fathers passing & the last thing he's looking at is a sign saying come get a parking pass. They towed him. We called & went by to tell them this unique situation & the old bat working with the stringy dark & hair was unsympathetic at best and proceeds to pull out a photo of the policy and sign. Karma people. Karma. read more

This place takes advantage of people. A couple weeks ago I got towed out of my own parking spot!!! I had 2 tags in my car and they only looked for the one and decided to tow me at my own house. If they would've taken 2 seconds to actually look they would've seen my parking tag... also.. don't expect to get your money back. The place I live at declined to pay for my parking ticket even after evidence of me having the tag in my car. The towing company had no interest in what I had to say. Money hungry business that doesn't care about the people. read more

It would be one thing if they towed me, but I was trying to get them a job and they were awful people, do no call this company read more

What a racket! They are charging students $125 for towing. My daughter clearly had her parking sticker on her car and they told us, "well I guess the tow truck driver didn't see it." He would not provide us with his name or the business owner's name, but wanted her (my 18-year-old daughter) to come up there "after hours" to point out the sticker to them in order to release the car. read more

AET is a dirty and low down ass tow company who does shasty and sleezy work. They lurk, watch and wait for you to park somewhere that you think is a legitimate parking space and then tow your vehicle. That's a shame if that's how they go to run their business. Dirty MF's... read more

I'm not even complaining about the 50 minute wait in 93 degree weather. I want everyone to know about the $220 fee to tow my Jeep 9 miles. This is absolutely ridiculous! Do not use this service. read more

This business preys on students and on our lack of funds. They towed my car even though I had a pass, made me pay $125 of money that I don't have, and threatened to raise the price $20 for each day I wasn't able to get it. Place sucks. read more

Imagine being a crook company, getting what money you can from broke college students, towing cars even though they have the sticker on their car and live at the apartments they are at. A $125 fee is ridiculous. Then having a piss poor attitude when you have to come unlock the gate at 12:30 a.m because you decided to tow a car at 11:00 p.m. read more

I will be contacting an attorney for what these pathetic people have done!! They hooked up my daughter's car up to be towed that she left for less than 5 minutes to help a sick friend to her apartment. When she came out they told her she could pay them $50 to drop her car. WHO does that?!?! How dare you take advantage of people and make money by threatening them!! You are the lowest of the low and should be ashamed. read more

They booted my car at my house, not apartment or street, my home. I ran outside in a towel from the shower. Even after I showed them my parking credentials, they still charged me $62 to unclamp it. They were extremely rude and when I asked to grab my phone from inside to take photos they told me no. I feel like this company took advantage of me for being a college female. I've heard they sometimes charge some folks $75 to unclamp their vehicles. I wish I could do more for this company to not get business or shut down. If you need a towing company 5 businesses with 4 to 5 stars pop up. P.S. After paying I went and took pictures anyway. read more
