I got stuck in a ditch after over correcting and bless Nancy and Tinos hearts!! They were so kind and calmed me down after the accident. If you have any towing needs on the Mendocino coast, contact them!!! read more

Short verion: I wish people like Tino & Nancy @ Orca ran more of the places I do business, they improved everything they were involved with. Tino runs an outfit with character, courtesy, and proper old-school know-how. Detailed version: Our Class A RV had some trouble (lean fuel condition, lead to a stall - frozen starter then left us stuck) on the way up the coast soon after leaving Mendo. It was early in the day so we figured we would have no trouble using our Good Sam membership. 9 hours later, we still hadn't had tow dispatched. Light was fading, a CHP officer that stopped by said he didn't expect Good Sam to handle it in fewer than three days, so I started calling around myself. I called Orca and Tino answered the phone. He listened to me calmly, as I explained that the CHP said a local tow-shop owner lived about a mile from where our rig was stuck, had the correct size truck, and believed it was him. Tino candidly said it wasn't, but he knew who they were talking about. He gave me the Owner's name, shared their contact info, and wished us luck. Integrity. I called the CHP's outfit, got a dispatcher willing to contact that owner, and was told they wouldn't be able to take a swing at it till the following afternoon. After plenty of additional calls to dispatchers as far as Willits and Ukiah (really), including Good Sam admitting they had given up trying, I tried Orca again. I explained I'd been working with Good Sam all day, had no luck, and asked if they'd be willing to try. He agreed and even dispatched a 2nd driver to help. Now after midnight, not only did Tino come out, he stopped to pick us up (we'd gotten a ride into town, assuming we'd need to sleep somewhere other than the side of the highway). When we got back to our rig, we met the 2nd driver (Nancy!). With tow-trucks and all their lights at the front and back of the RV, I asked, before the hassle of towing, if they'd mind if I tried shorting the starter to 'limp' into town with the lean fuel issue. Not only were they willing to let me give it a shot, Nancy volunteered to see if it would unfreeze while I tried starting it from inside. To keep this story from getting any longer, in the end, we were able to get the rig started and Tino and Nancy followed behind with their lights covering our back as we limped along at 5-15 mph all the way into town. It's seems a rare thing these days, to get someone on the phone who will take the time to listen, never mind responding with integrity and know-how. With Tino and Nancy we were able to troubleshoot the issue, avoid dropping the drive-line and towing the RV (they shake themselves apart running on flat ground, forget about stresses involved lifting for a tow) and get the rig safely to town. I don't often get stuck somewhere I need someone else covering me, but I can tell you I'd happily have that someone be Orca towing anytime it comes up. They're good people, who know their business, and care enough to decline a tip and ask instead we check in once we get home safely. Wish I ran across folks like this more often. Thanks again Tino. read more

My car battery died on the day after Thanksgiving and everyone else around was closed. I was so grateful that Nancy at Orca Towing was working. She immediately drove over in her truck and jumpstarted my car. She was was extremely friendly and efficient, and even gave me tips for the future (I'm not very car savvy...). I'd highly recommend this place! read more

Disgusting!!! These people towed my Son's Hyabussa Motorcyle after his fatal accident on 3/20/22. I Paid the bill out of pocket for the towing and storage $650. I told them I didn't want the bike and my friend who works at a local tow company where I live called and told them to crush the bike, if they weren't going to crush it they were told that it would be picked up. Fast forward almost 2 months and I get a call from my only remaining child on this earth, my 17 year old Son, who is freaked out because his Brother's crashed Hyabusa Motorcyle is on Facebook Market place. These people are fucking vultures and I pray that noone ever tries to turn a profit on their dead children! read more

Tino was so kind and helpful when my partner and I needed to haul the 5th wheel we were living in off of the property it was on. He navigated more than one obstacle with us on the way out to the main road but never made us feel like we weren't going to make it. I was incredibly nervous about getting to our final destination and Tino made it a lot easier. read more

This is addressed to Jaclyn M., Weather you do business with us is your choice. I apologize for not posting this until now but I don't normally use these sites. I run a honest business and all my permits are paid and current ( too many to list them all) LOL The situation that you were in, Was that You and Others were parking in a No Parking Zone designated for a business, That you were not going to. There were clear signs telling you not to park there. Which you and others ignored!!! The business called us to remove these vehicles lawfully. I was working for that business owner no one else at the time. She told me that she was tiered of people parking in her spaces, To go to the Botanical Gardens and not her store, Which she was paying for which included the parking spaces. The sheriff was called by me ,Not you. Because people involved would not get out of the way so I could do my job. The sheriff advise everyone involved that I was doing my job according to the law and to step aside. There were two vehicles towed that day ,The owners of each vehicle pick up their cars, The bill was Paid by the Gardens ( Because they were their customers ) parked illegally. Please don"t park in places where signs are posted!!!!!!! They are posted for a reason. I am a Towing Company and I will lawfully tow Vehicles.That are illegally park. read more

Why does everyone blame the towing companies when they screw up and their car gets impounded. Or they leave it parked in a private parking lot where they are not doing business taking up space. Own up to it, bail your car out and MoveOn. try to change your life. The towing companies are not the bad guys here you are. Orca towing helps a lot of people who can't afford the price of new for things like tires and batteries to keep their cars running. And they're just trying to make a living in hard times like everyone else read more
