I called GD Towing and was told they would be sending a flatbed, but when the truck arrived it wasn't a flatbed. I was also told ahead of time that if my car rolled, there wouldn't be a need for dollies. My car did roll, yet they still used dollies and charged me an extra $85. The tow itself was okay, but the miscommunication about the truck type and the unexpected extra charge were frustrating. Clearer explanations and more accurate information upfront would make a big difference. read more

Beware of very inconsistent pricing! We had to have our van towed twice within 1 week. The first time it was $150 and the second time, for a slightly longer trip, THEY CHAREGD ME $550! The guy said he had to hire a driver FROM SAN FRANCISCO so it cost more. I said I'm not an idiot and I would never have hired a tow from San Francisco. He lowered the price then, but only to $450. Highway robbery. Infuriating. read more

bunch of scamers ! charging somebody close to 4k for a tow and one day of storage is crazy! they should not be allowed to be in service . they take it to 2020 van ness ! they run a scam!!! do not use read more

Do not get towing service from GDTowing at all. Stay away. Wait longer to get another service

I used them to tow a knuckle boom lift. They knew how to release the brakes on the lift and loaded it expertly onto their flatbed. They know how to tow and their price is the most reasonable of any tow company that I called for the job. Thanks Gilmer and Jose! read more

GD Towing - Unloading lift. - Towing Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was broke down on the side of the highway with a blown tire. No AAA or roadside so I called the local tow company (which by the way was NOT GD Towing). Spoke with a lovely dispatcher who quoted $250 over the phone and stated if different equipment were needed for the tow (dollies, etc.), there would be an additional charge that the tow operator would review on scene. 30 minutes later the truck arrived - I did not catch it was a different tow company by name. We got to my destination and before the 4 wheels were to hit pavement, I was asked for payment. Driver showed me payment details due of $$385.00 which I immediately refused to pay due to the verbal quote from dispatch. I spoke to his "boss" on the phone, which is when I noted GQ Towing as the call name. This was not who I called, which I pointed out. The boss said they are the parent company and take all billing from a few of their smaller operations? Ok, I explained nicely to him the quote I received. He didn't care, he stated it was $385 and the car would not be released. Basically, these clowns pulled a bait and switch with ZERO transparency on their fees. I'm beyond angered at this nonsense and that any oversight company allows these idiots to keep operating. Reporting to the BBB and copying this review everywhere for all to see. read more

Thank you once again, Benjamin for the towing. Efficient quick and solved the big issue for me. I encourage everyone to call whenever needing towing services. Reliable and reasonable. read more

Waited 90 minutes for a tow. I called ahead and spoke to the dispatcher and sent them photos of my truck , per their request, to make sure they had all my information. They showed up. Demanded an additional $300 over what the insurance company who hired them to tow the truck would also send. They had accepted the tow from my insurance so I should not of had to pay them. The driver said that he didn't get any of the information that I had provided to dispatch. told me to call insurance and as I was doing as he instructed he drove away abandoning me with no explanation. I called dispatch and asked what was happening. They hung up on me. I called back and asked why we disconnected. He said he didn't want the job and hung up. I really wish that I had been rude or hostile or unreasonable at any time so I would feel that I would deserve this type of treatment, but unfortunately I wasn't. UPDATE: instead of apologizing for their poor service, they called several times and the then texted me the following day demanding that I removed this review. Seriously. read more

STAY AWAY!!!! SCAMMERS!!! I wish I could give a 0 or even a negative number! My car broke down and I needed a tow from San Francisco to Bay Point (about 47 miles). I know that's far but everywhere online said it should be about $250-350. I called the company because it had good reviews on Google and asked if I could use gift cards as payment since I didn't have enough cash in the bank. They said yes and so I ordered the tow. After they got my car off the truck they told me it would be $700! I was shocked and scrambled to find the money since I didnt have that much and all the while they kept reminding me that every five minutes would add to the bill. I tried the gift cards but they didnt work even though they told me it would. After i finally borrowed some money they gave me my car back and then asked me where to eat. The whole ordeal was just awful. DO NOT USE them! Find literally anyone else! read more

Edited review: A guy at the business called me after I posted my review of my experience with this company. He wasn't happy with the Yelp review I posted. After listening to him tell me how unprofessional I am for posting a review and him saying "f-ing this, and f-ing that," I told him that I would remove the previously posted commentary and just include the facts. I considered changing my rating to two stars, but decided I'd keep it at one star after being cussed at on the phone. The guys doing the towing were professional and nice. Service was quick and courteous (at the time of the tow). Pricing seemed very high to me. Towing a large truck, Ford F350 with a lift bed with 1/2 yard of soil Towed 8.1 miles from Daly City to San Francisco Charge of : $950.00 for the tow $295.00 for labor $250.00 for "special equipment" read more

This company is a scam. Don't use them if you can. They will charge you $1200 just tow you car barely even 5 miles. The tow truck driver claimed that the owner decided to bring the car elsewhere. Called the owner and told him what had happened and the tow truck driver drove off with the car. Owner called the truck driver and complained. Then the driver comes back 20 mins later with the car. Then they bill you $1200. I've had tow service in the past that will charge wayyyyyyy less towing within the city. Even towing from outside of the city still cheaper than these guys. STAY AWAY!!! read more

SCAMMING PREDATORY TOW TRUCK COMPANY Smiling faces with intentions to set you up. This company uses police/ambulance scanners to find the closest call on highways. They somehow show up faster than you can even make contact with SFPD. I had an encounter with this company last week and the tow truck driver showed up less than 2 minutes after my accident, due to their scanners. They basically harassed me to take my totaled car to one of "their" mechanics shops, where I was assured I wasn't going to pay for any tow fees. Come to find out I owe 1250$ just for the tow fee, not including the trap of placing my car in one of their mechanic shops in this case it was "Eur-Asia auto body". I was charged 4 days of storage at 300$/day. Avoid this company at all cost. If you're in accident and you see a "GD tow truck" deny their service and call your insurance or call 911. Tow to your house not to any random mechanic. REMEMBER YOU CAN CLAIM YOUR VEHICLE WITHIN 72 HOURS WITHOUT PAYING A DIME. read more

Great, quick and very last minute towing service today from GD Towing. My car broke down on southbound Gough at Union Street at NOON.

I'm very grateful for the fast and efficient service... read more

DO NOT USE GD TOWING!!!!! This company is the absolute worst and shady as hell! My car was recently totaled in hit and run at 2 am in San Francisco and after I called the police, GD Towing arrived out of thin air to offer a helping in or so I stupidly thought..... turns out these ambulance chasers listen to a police scanner and pull up to offer "assistance" before you have a chance to call anyone else with the sole intention to take you for all they can. The morning of my accident i received an email saying i needed to retrieve my car from Eurasia Moters to avoid getting screwed worse than. My car was towed less than two miles and stored almost 12 hours in which they ran a "diagnostic ​test" without my permission resulting in a 1500 bill. They scam you and laugh in your face because they think they're smart but my attorney is smarter. read more

I have no idea how these guys are still in business. One of the worst experiences of the last year for me. Long story short: My nephew was charged $3,650 for a 3.7 mi tow and less than 48 hours of storage. None of these fees were explained or presented to him before the services were rendered. My nephew was visiting in town and got rear-ended. He called GD towing after finding out they had good reviews online. He didn't check Yelp because he would have seen their abysmal reviews here.... but rather he looked on Google reviews where for some super suspicious reason they've got 4.7 Stars.... They came out and did helpfully tow him to a body shop.... they recommended ....called Eur-Asia Motors on Van Ness. Less than 48 hours later we go to pick up his car as soon as they opened. They were super polite and handed over an invoice for $3,650. What?! All we could ask was what did they do to the car? Nothing. Well ....you see ....it's $300 a day for storage(!) and they count it per calendar day.... so even though it was less than 48 hours they called that 3 days. Then they added a bunch of b******* fees which took that up to $1,550 for storage. oh and the towing was an amazing $2100. I'd like to repeat here once again ......that's for 3.7 Miles. They then held my nephew's car hostage until he came back with a cashier's check for $3,650. We refused to pay and left and fortunately found out his insurance company will cover it all. I really hope they did not pay those fees. A big thanks to yelp.com for being a true store of accurate online information on companies! I'm still amazed at what a difference there is between Google reviews and Yelp reviews. read more

This place is a SCAM. Avoid at all cost. They partner with Euro Asia in SF to scam people. My parents got into a hit and run and GD Towing magically appeared and Carlos, was "nice" enough to help them and drive them home. Carlos gave my parents a card of Euro-Asia letting them know he would tow their car there. Carlos did not give my parents paperwork to fill out and took off with their car. What towing company does not fill out paperwork and just take off with someones car?!?! My parents told him they had AAA but he did not fill out the form for that! They day after, we went to retrieve our vehicle from Euro-Asia and the toll bill was $1,600 to just to tow the vehicle from Daly City to SF!!! DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE NOT NICE! read more

I called them to get a quote and they quoted me $140 to tow my car less than 1 mile. I had called around to several other towing companies that quoted me $150, so I decided to take the $140 as the best price. When we reached the destination, the driver held my car hostage and told me the fee was $240. When I refused, they tried to negotiate it - first it was then $225, then $175, then finally, "alright if you give us cash $150, you can have your car back". I called for a price quote specifically to avoid this type of racket. Liars and crooks, avoid this company at all costs. read more

I called them at 5:30 pm. for a tow. They asked for payment by credit card which I gladly did. They said in 30 minutes.... 1.5 hours later they said their driver left his tolls at another site and be another 30 minutes. Then they stopped answering my calls. Car was stuck on the freeway, now foggy , dangerous and dark. Had to have CHP call another company for tow. read more

I had a car parked in an underground parking garage with a 6' clearance in SF, so that ruled out AAA and most tow truck companies that I called. However was told GD Towing had a smaller tow and might be able to do the job. They arrived in the stated time and were able to accomplish what seemed an impossible task for most towers. It was a very tricky job with narrow, tight corners but they did the job! Kudos to Alexander the driver and all the guys who helped. Forever grateful! read more

Gabriel was helpful in towing our car from the SFO long term parking lot at 10:30pm on Saturday night. He called while on the way and showed up on time. The clearance to the old parking structure was only 6'9" and the tow trucks, both flat bed and wheel lift would not fit. Gabriel used his compressor to try to inflate the tire but the puncture was on the side, so it wouldn't hold air. I had to drive the car with a flat down and out of the parking structure. Gabriel drove us 49 miles and allowed us to ride in the cab. I would use GD Towing again. read more

Gelmer of GD towing is my across-the-street neighbor. The night that my house burned down (April 30) he offered to tow my truck out of the driveway for free so that PGE could dig up the road in front to shut off the gas. I trusted him, as we live across the street from each other. He towed my truck to Eur-Asia Auto and that's where the real shady stuff started. My truck was obviously totaled out from the fire damage. Between him and the body shop they came up with all sorts of charges that my insurance company immediately flagged as being exorbitant and inflated. I mean... $1700 for the tow from our neighborhood in SF to the body shop on Van Ness! I even talked to him on the phone and told him that insurance was flagging the charges and they would be taken out of my settlement... he agreed to lower the tow fee to $800... but I guess he either forgot or lied to me because he didn't. Then there were special equipment fees and storage fees and hazardous waste fees from the body shop. Huuuuge scam that, if you read the reviews from *that* shop, they're famous for. Anyways. Insurance only paid them what was fair and expected... and took the rest out of my settlement. So Gelmer didn't actually help me... he cost me about $1800 dollars. Avoid this tow service at all cost, and if you do use him, DO NOT let him take your vehicle to Eur-Asia Auto. Unless you like getting taken advantage of when you're in a vulnerable state. read more

GD Towing - Towing Near Me - San Francisco, California

How much longer do you think you're going to be operating like this before the Better Business Bureau catches up with you? This guy charged me $225 for a motorcycle tow for a distance of 2.9 miles. Your yelp reviews are full of people complaining about the same thing. During the ride, he acts like he's your friend, as soon as he drops off your vehicle. He waits for you to be distracted and tries his best to get the highest price, which is a ridiculous amount, and if it's under 5 miles, he'll try to go for $300. Not a cool way to operate, you're taking people's hard-earned money. Avoid at all costs Update: The owner Gelmer D. apparently thinks taking people's money is funny. Avoid at all costs, this guy will take your money and laugh about it later. read more

I have Good sams towing company kinda like a AAA. they dispatch to have GD company come out and I was notified that the driver was close by after an hour later. After waiting another 20 minutes I see a tow truck driver go by. I flagged them down and part of this is the companies (good sans) fault.. they put my car into the system wrong. The tow truck driver never tried to contact me. I had no missed calls, but then told me that I needed to call back the company because he was no longer able to tow me. In total, I waited an hour for them to get here an extra 20 minutes while I waited even though it said he was right next to me. After contacting his boss, they couldn't do anything to accommodate me. They just blamed it on the company that outsources them. No customer service. read more

AVOID AT ALL COST- CALL 911 OR A TRUSTED TOWING COMPANY! They towed my car from the freeway to an autobody shop called Eur-Asia Auto Body at 202 Van ness Ave in San Francisco. Both are partners intended to scam the innocent who get into accidents on the freeway. They somehow showed up to my accident before the police even got there. Brought me to the shady auto body and tried to quote me $950 for a stupid towing fee (fucking ridiculous- a towing fee is max 450) If you see GD towing and they offer to help- tell them to fuck right off. read more

I learned from my insurance company that they don't have auto insurance and are now being sent to collections.

Lier !! Stole my money. In San Francisco, CA. GD towing truck was behind me and i asked a favor to jump start my car instead of waiting for my insurance. The spanish speaking driver was such a lier. He stole my money. He offered to charge my car for $50.00 but without charging my car , he took my money and refused to give it back. Very disappointed. That $50 is not gonna benefit him since he didn't earn it, it's just very disappointing. I know never to use Ur service again....I will post this review everywhere so people are aware. read more

I then had State Farm contact them and they didn't even respond to them and they then cancelled my towing. This place is garbage horrible communication and service DO NOT use this place. read more
