Service was great. We were traveling and they were able to get us off a ramp and to a service station within 20-30 minutes. Alex was very friendly and helpful! He went above and beyond to make us comfortable in an unfortunate situation. Would definitely recommend this company and hope you're fortunate to get Alex when you call. read more

My truck was towed out of my apartment complex because they "didn't see" my parking pass. I found my pass tucked under the driver side seat. They work on commission so of course they played stupid when I asked why my pass was under my seat and of course they played stupid. They aren't an honest company. I called to ask about it and they told me to go fuck myself read more

Needed a jump start - they were fast and very helpful. I have also had my cars in the shop on numerous occasions- they are quick, great with communication and very fair on pricing! read more

We needed a tow, they came quickly with a very experienced operator and got the job done. Would not hesitate to call on them again.

THEY STINK - If ZERO STARS was a choice - that's what they'd get - Triple A service request - request accepted!! - he will be there within 75 minutes -received driver en route notification (I'll leave his name out) - at the 50 minute mark - received a call from Triple A - he will be there 10-12 mins - checked tracking link they sent me for the driver - I can see he is 20 minutes away at the one hour mark - nearly 3 hours later and 3 phone calls NOTHING - last call to AAA put on hold for 9 minutes so she could Gaeta's dispatch and was told they don't know when their coming - TERRIBLE- I canceled the call - spoke with AAA - told them to never - ever again assign Gaeta's to a call for me - Luckily I don't need AAA service often - but over the years this has happened at least 3 other times to me and my family and friends with Gaeta's - they stink read more

If I could give zero stars I would. Had a flat tire yesterday. Called AAA who called Gaeta. Told me about an hour. After an hour I called to check the status and was informed that they came by and reported that there was no one in the car. Lie#1. Asked them to resend a driver who showed up another hour later. Guess what? No jack! Goes back to the station and says he will be right back. Lie # 2. I call after 1/2 hour dispatch says he had a personal issue and left. Do you think they called me? No. Back and forth - Finally After 4 YES 4 HOURS I get the tire changed and go home. They are the only game in the area. God help you if you need these chumps. read more

Love this place great bunch of guys working there now. The are the cheapest for local tows and fair for long distance tows. Better service that four star towing. read more

Stay away from these guys unless you want your car damaged!! Drivers are under qualified, rude and disrespectful and don't have the slightest clue as to what they are doing and the woman on the phone was beyond rude when I tried to explain how the driver dragged my car up and down the bed tearing half the bumper off unloading my car!!! read more

If I could give zero, I would--ignorant, rude, and unprofessional staff. Chris is a jerk. But he's worked there for over 20 years. No respect for repeat customers. No callbacks when promised. Half a$$ job on my breaks. It wasn't ready on the same day. I will never go back there for anything! My breaks need to be redone! read more

These a**holes charged me 140$ worth of gas when I only got 30$ in gas. The workers don't even know how to fix the problem they just tell you to "call my boss" ya no sh*t buddy! Awful service and the worst tow drivers you've ever seen! read more

Called this morning to get an estimate. After giving her the to/from address for towing, she quoted me a range. I had already checked out the website and was impressed with what it said about its drivers' credentials. When I called back to schedule, she said it would take about 2 hours before a driver would be available. Less than 2 hours later, she called me back to say the driver was on his way. Alex, the driver was professional, personable and friendly. Rode with him to the dealership. All in all, it was a bright spot n an otherwise crappy situation. I hope I don't need a tow again anytime soon, but if I do, I'm definitely calling Gaeta. Thank you! read more

Gaeta's Gas & Auto Services - Here we go... - Towing Near Me - Peabody, Massachusetts

Needed my car towed from CVS Lowell St to Sears at Northshore Mall Was quoted $ 180.00 I don't think so! read more

Very unprofessional. Girlfriend called AAA due a stripped lug nut guy showed up said your your lug nut is stripped, I need to run back to the shop. 2 hours later she sees that dirtbag completed the call. Thanks read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! These guys are the absolute worst out there. They come late, have horrible attitudes, so unprofessional beyond what I could have ever expected from any company. Recently called them and they constantly fabricated every single excuse possible so that they could leave and not tow the car because they wanted to go home since it was their last call. They are despicable and I would rather wait 5 extra hours for any other company than deal with these people ever again. read more

RUDE! I've been trying to get a receipt for a tow job they did so I can get reimbursed from the dealership and they can't seem to find the time to write one up. I spoke to a lady there who said she'd send it out, but she never did. Every time I call, they say they are too busy and hang up. It would be nice to see this business go under! read more

It's pretty simple: 1. Great gas prices; 2. Convenient locations. Both locations are easily accessible to W. Peabody, and cities north, travelling South down Rte 1, towards Boston. Gaeta's has always run a tight ship, so there's no nonsense, the people there know they're there to work. Gaeta's Shell also has an automotive repair garage and MA sticker inspection which is reviewed separately. Plus they also have a towing operation. Gaeta's been around "forever" and has always been there when I've needed them. The times that I've used them have always been positive and, living in the community for many years, I've only ever heard positive things about them. For service, towing or gas at great prices, Gaeta's is an excellent example of a locally-owned family business that'll do ya right. read more

They responded to a AAA call for a flat tire within 20 minutes, pulled the tire saw that a plug and air would fix it. Truck was back within another 20 minutes and we were on our way within an hour. Young man that showed up was polite and quick. read more

I broke down just a mile from this place. I had my two young girls with me and it was getting late. The workers here are so helpful and considerate. They made a very scary/stressful situation so much better. Thank you! Lisa read more

Beware!!! Not only did they show up to tow me with friends in the vehicle so we couldn't fit in the tow truck to go to the shell where they keep the keys... When I got to the Shell station along with my towed vehicle, I asked for my registration back and was denied "it stays with us". I asked where the vehicle would be located the next morning so I could gather my things out of the vehicle once I got a rental. I was told we can't give u the location is not disclosed and we would have to escort you. The next morning I get a rental after starting in a hotel across the street from the tow company. I show up to the Shell to be "escorted" to the undisclosed location. To be told to drive to the strip club a few miles away to find my vehicle. Then bring the keys back to this first location.. After the rediculous trips to get my key go to strip club to go in my car and finally return my key back to the first location, they tow my vehicle three days after my insurance request to the repair shop I had chosen. I get to the repair shop with my vehicle, to find that not only was everything missing that I did leave in the glove compartment (paperwork/ Yankee candle items/other items my own fault for leaving them) but the registration I was not allowed to have was now missing and no where to be found. Now I'm forced to pay for a replacement registration just so I can re-register in my new state one month later, on top of replacing the missing items from my vehicle. This accident turned into a nightmare and I recommend calling any other tow company. They also charged my insurance company a ridiculously high rate, thankfully I didn't have to pay myself. read more

I called AAA with a dead battery a few weeks ago. They sent a fleet vehicle the size of a tractor trailer and he was from AAA and could not start my car. A few days later I called AAA back and 2 boys from Gaeta's showed up. They had no problem starting it. They came quickly after I called and it was Memorial Day 7 pm perhaps. They didn't have my battery. I waited a week and called AAA back and they sent a fleet person out with a battery. I wanted to buy it through Gaeta's but I couldn't wait for it to be in stock. Thank you for the jump start. Excellent customer service and I think the boy that came out was the owners son. Very personable and he represents the business well. read more

Mary Gaeta is a very professional business owner...plus is a woman who goes above and beyond for her customers..her son Joey is a top notch guy as well...highly recommended business read more

Carmen from Gaeta Towing responded to a AAA call for a suspected dead starter. He was prompt, friendly, and professional, and after a quick assessment, determined a tow was unnecessary. I was impressed by his helpful attitude, matter-of-fact demeanor, and solid advice. Thanks to this excellent experience, I gladly recommend Gaeta Towing. read more

On Sunday September 23rd, in over a four hour period this towing company told me they were on their way 7 separate times and just proceeded to never show up... read more

Never again! I've been here 5 times to get my car reinspected after it got rejected for a hairline crack on the brake light cover. Each time I come it's a 45+ min wait [you wait outside btw] and told to come back at a diff time of day next time. I've come at 8a, 10a, noon, 2p & 3p.... always the same story. I'll be going back to where I used to go, such a waste of time. read more

Due to the recent extreme cold my car, like many others, has been having issues. Long story short, I had to deal with Gaeta's and they have been horrible. 1. The first time I called, after 3 hours they said they came but they did not (nor did they call me on the phone number I provided them). They came after the second call and jumped my battery. 2. The nexy day my battery was dead I needed a tow, but the tow truck operater said he was unable to tow my car because of the ice around it. I accepted that explanation later that day when I saw a tow truck from a different company towing a car in a much icier part of the parking lot. 3. Today I got a third driver who was not a tow truck driver, despite the fact that I requested one (although he was very helpful, the only helpful person I have dealt with). He said my car could absolutely be towed and forwarded the case to another driver who said it would be 1-2 hours. After 3.5 hours I called to see what was going on and the woman who answered was rude and dismissive and said that they tried to come but couldn't access my parking lot. That is untrue as a Gatea's truck had already accessed it, on top of the other company's truck that I saw. Regardless, they should have called me to let me know, which they did not. This, on top of other bad experiences of friends and family with Gaeta's, is why I amwriting this review. I am a very kind and understanding person and have never written a bad review about a company, but Gaeta's takes the cake for being the worst company I've ever dealt with. read more

This review relates to some work I had done about a year or so ago. I spent 300 bucks on 3 coils and spark plugs, which is a good deal. 1 year later the coil in cylinder #6 died. Another mechanic, took the coil off and switched around to troubleshoot it. Turns out that one of the coils was bad. The coil was some piece of garbage with no brand on it. I probably drove 10,000 miles before it died. I am disappointed because the gas prices are great and the mechanic is pretty knowledgeable. I am just a little upset at the quality of the products placed in my vehicle. read more

These people are absolute con artists! They are a AAA towing company that told my mother that AAA would not cover the tow from their yard to my mechanic, I was not able to talk to them myself as i was in the accident and injured. They told her to take the car to Salem only 6 miles away would cost $150. They intimidated her and tried to take advantage of her. I called AAA the following morning and they said they would cover the tow and it would only cost me $9!! They were just trying to make a quick buck. I would never ever use these people for any service they offer, a bunch of con artists. read more

Matt was very courteous, quick, and friendly. The company was able to get my car to the shop I requested.

Spoke to Pam on the phone because I needed a car towed for repairs at a nearby station. She was extremely nice and told me there would be someone here within the hour. Took less than an hour for them to arrive. Driver was very nice, and professional. Will definitely use them again if needed! read more

Outstanding value and service. Very competitive gas prices also. I started bringing my Camry and then my wife's Honda needed service and now both my son's are driving and they bring their Civic and Sonata there. I trust Kenny and his team with my families safety. That's the ultimate compliment in my opinion. My friends Dave and Neil recommended them years ago and I've never gone anywhere since. Oil changes are only 20 bucks and they do inspection stickers ! read more

Gaeta's came by to rescue my friend and I when the car over heated last night. Danny was fast and knowledgable. He explained everything he was doing before he did it so that we knew exactly what was going on. Dropped the car right in front of the house, a little paperwork and advice and we were home before it got too late. Great service! read more

Needed my truck towed, for that last time to sell it. They showed up on time. Very professional. Pam who took my call, was very courteous and accommodating. Very fair on pricing for their services. I will choose them first! OUTSTANDING ! read more

What HAPPENED??? I used to love Gaeta's, and maybe they are still great if you need a tow or some repairs. But if you just want to pop in for their (very competitively priced) gas? Keep driving and go somewhere that they actually WANT your business. Twice now (and I wouldn't Yelp about one time) I've decided to pay cash, which increasingly feels like the safer choice these days. The "cashier" and her buds (fellow employees? vendors? permanent customers?) were so busy entertaining each other, that I had to wait several minutes for her to accept my money so I could pump some gas. When I thought I saw a pause and asked for my $20 on pump 6, she said "wait just a minute" and went back to whatever she was doing for whichever among the party must (might?) have been a customer. Like I said, this was the second time I was ignored and made to wait while trying to pay cash to get some gas, so sadly, I won't be back. read more

I'm giving two stars because they graciously fit me in to plug a flat tire on my new Infinity g37x on the fly.. gas attendent/dispatcher on that particular shift has always been a rock star when I go in .. but there have been other times, tonight included, where (usually a female) is behind the counter and they ignore you completely. Tonight, I popped in to make a quick cash transaction, because on previous occasions my credit/debit card was charged twice, they placed a hold on the amount in gas AND debited to take it out immediately. If you spent 20, expect to have 20 more tied up for a few days (40). This evening, I walked in as one of their attendants answered the phone as a dispatcher for their towing company. I would have appreciated a quick nod of acknowledgement after a few minutes, but she was taking notes, so I silently accepted that she was busy..but once off the phone, she looked right at me with attitude and went straight to talking with the guys in the shop, as if I wasn't there. I'm guessing someone would feel the right to act like that if they were in good, because they had the job out of relational or personal circumstance.. because some of the shop workers that I recognized didn't call her attention back to me, or stop her from the conversation she started with them, to redirect her help to me. If they weren't in the location that they're in, this place would never do what it does. It's too bad really..the mechanics are pretty nice, but between attendents that nod off on day shifts, and others with wretched chips on their shoulders..this place? You should pass! read more

i had to utilize their service for a tire change on really cold day and they were fast and efficient. great service in and out solved the problem and we both were on our merry ways read more

Called a tow truck. They arrived, jumped started my car but didn't tie down the loose connection to the battery. Then the guy just left. I started my car... got about 10 feet and stalled. Standing by was a friend and the owner of the local car wash who volunteered to jump me. They tied the post down and I made it home with no problems. After replacing the battery the car runs fine. After several phone calls and emails I have gotten nowhere with them. I don't feel as though I should have to pay for inadequate service. I called them because they are a known company in this area with a good reputation. I was shocked to see them not want to own up to their mistake. I will not be calling them again for towing services. UPDATE: I filed a BBB complaint which they immediately responded to with a personal note and check refunding my money. The whole thing has left a bad taste in my mouth. It wasn't all about the money. I don't doubt that the owner is a nice guy. I just have no idea why they didn't deal with this sooner. Bringing their rating up to 2 stars. I'd like to think this experience was an unusual one for this company. read more

Overall a good shop. Their repair work is good and fairly priced. However they are somewhat slow, and seemed annoyed when you call about your car. Guess they are very busy since they get a lot of AAA business. read more

Had a flat tire todsy. Driver met me on the interstate . .very friendly guy. Changed the tire in 15 mins. Great great service.

I have got several inspections at this station both for my motorcycles and cars. My most recent experience will not bring me back there unless I run out of gas on the highway. I saw some unfamiliar tall mechanic in the garage as my vehicle was being inspected. I was watching him attempt to dis-assemble a drive shaft- he was hammering it with a big hammer and using an air hammer as well. He then got mad and slammed the tools down two feet from me and walked out of the garage. When he came back from his hissy fit he then said something about me wearing sandals in the garage.I thought he was joking. Then he said it wasn't a request. This really rubbed me the wrong way- He then starts to use an acetylene torch on the part and it starts to flame up pop and smoke(under the gas tank of a truck on the lift- two feet from me- sitting on wood 4x4's...)---- So as im leaving I noticed the worst mechanic i have ever seen hadn't even removed the snap rings----- sorry guys- wont ever be coming back here read more

I called triple A to get my car towed and they told me that Gaeta was close so they sent their tow truck to come. The truck came very slow. The driver was very rude and unfriendly. I was very cold and he did not invite me to sit in the truck. He just had me stand there shaking, waiting for the car to be done being towed. Then I was told to wait till Monday to call because they would be closed on Sunday. When I called Monday, They tried to act like they could not find my car. The lady who answered the phone was extremely rude and tried to rush me off of the phone. Then she told me that I needed to call the next day because they had not even looked at my car yet. I said alright and she hung up quickly. Then I called back the next day and a slightly nicer woman answered and said, "Let me check with the mechanic." When she came back to the phone, she informed me that they would begin looking at the car and call me back with a quote. I was appalled, because it took them days to even look at my car. They eventually called me back with a ridiculously high quote so I got my car towed out of there and brought to a different mechanic. Let's just say that I will never have anything done by this company ever again! read more
