    Garrett with his flat bed truck.

    Garrett and this towing company was our savior when our Tesla got a flat tire (no thanks to a chain remnant) heading up to Tahoe on the day after Christmas. Naturally we called Tesla Roadside Assistance. As it started to snow harder just outside of Blue Canyon on Highway-80, Tesla Roadside Assistance customer service took 50 minutes to finally let us know that they could not find a tow truck company willing to tow us off the highway in a storm brewing. We decided to call around on our own and within 5 minutes, Mark found Gold Country Tow out of Grass Valley that was willing to not only pick up our Tesla but could hold all five passengers! Garrett arrived as quickly as possible, calling & texting us with updates on his ETA. He was a nice dude, clean-cut with a cool man bun, and very likable. We all piled into the tow truck & landed at America's Tire in Auburn (who also saved the day). Price was more than reasonable all considering and we have nothing but 5+ stars for this family owned company!!!!

    I was in my way back from camping in Utah, on my 14th hour of driving, when my 27 Foot travel trailer had a major issue. When I pulled over? The entire rim was destroyed. Gold Country came out and explained Barbed wire had gotten caught up on the axel and wheel. The driver worked really hard and got my trailer jacked up and performed amazing work. He got the wire out, put my spare on and was a great guy. I've had my share of working with tow companies and this was top notch service with a great attitude! I'm very grateful for their help last night!

    Every time we lock the keys in the vehicle or are in n the side of the road they have the best service, no matter who comes out to help.

Kirk arrived and was not only early, he phoned me then looked for me as I had had to go into the drugstore. He was cheerful, kind, and patient. He tried the basic way to jump the car, but when I pushed the start button the warning of "key system" showed on the dash, He jumped into action, knowing what to do. Needless to say my relief was huge when my Infinity started!! His experience, generous confidence, and attention to a higher customer service saved me from even more stress during a time of intense stress for me. I left with a renewed sense of calm knowing there are such people out there. Kirk, Thank you again for your rescue of me on a most stressful day and time. You not only knew what to do in a specific situation, you went the extra step and were genuinely a gentleman while you did it. I wish you smooth roads in all ways. Cat

    Absolutely Outstanding Service!…read more We had an incredible experience with this towing company! I called them thinking I needed a tow, but when the driver arrived, he didn't just hook up my car and go--he actually took the time to troubleshoot the issue first. Thanks to his knowledge and patience, we were able to get it off the road and discovered it needed a charge and didn't need a tow after all! I can't say enough good things about this towing company! From the moment I called, the dispatcher was courteous, professional, and reassuring. At that time, we had no idea we were speaking with the owner of the company Ryan. After we had called 8-10 other companies that wanted to charge us a kidney, we called Advanced Towing and Transportation. He told us that if we could not locate another company to call him back and he would try to assist us. He was not sure if he could help because of the size of our rig. Despite NOT even knowing if he could help, he arrived about 40 mins later. We were given an accurate ETA, and the driver actually showed up on time--a rarity these days! He could have easily just towed the car and charged me, but instead he showed honesty and real care for the customer. That kind of integrity is rare. Friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful--this company earned my trust and my 5 stars. Prices were fair and transparent, and there were no surprise fees. I genuinely felt like they cared about getting me back on the road safely and quickly. We highly recommended if you want honest, reliable roadside assistance from people who truly care about doing the right thing!

    Thank you Celestial Valley towing for your help today! Yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of…read morelosing my dad to cancer, we decided a road trip to see his ashes would be nice. Instead we broke down on Highway 49, just before Downieville. Was able to get family to come pick us up, but had no way of getting my husbands truck home, so last night I started calling around asking for quotes. On the phone they gave me one quote and when I called today it was $200 higher, said the person made a mistake last night, a little annoyed by that (hence the 4 star instead of 5)...but thank you for your help, and to Danny the driver for being so amazing and getting it home with no issues.

    I've used celestial towing twice this week once for personal and again for business vehicle…read more Personal vehicle was cheaper than what insurance wanted and after setting up pick up Danny was at my house fairly quickly and towed my car up to town no issues. The work vehicle pick up was even quicker as office is right down the street told the fella where it was going he filled out paperwork and off the van went. These guys are usually pretty busy but are available 24 hours. I appreciate the efficiency. Have depended on them in the past and will continue to use them. This post was from 2021 for some reason I didn't get around to submitting. Used celestial today, again quick to answer and quick to get to my uncle who broke down in a gas station driveway. The staff are efficient and professional there's a reason celestial towing has been in business as long as they have!

My son's car battery died overnight and he called AAA, whom sent this Tow Company out to service his vehicle. The guy, Sam, had NO TOOLS to take the nuts off of the battery cover and proceeded to pull the cover off, breaking the piece where the cover was held down by said nut. WHAT TOW TRUCK DOESN'T CARRY A SIMPLE TOOL KIT??!!!! Besides not being professional, he was rude about it!!! I have NEVER had a bad experience with any tow company before today!! Unacceptable!!

At 1 am, my car was still not in my driveway.Triple A dispatch was able to get the driver on the phone around 2 am, he said he was an hour and a half away. Triple A assured me he would call me when he got in the area. 2 and a half hours later, still no car. Dispatch called the driver, who said he was nearby. We went outside to wait for him and he never showed up. An hour later, still no car. I called Triple A, and they said my car had been delivered. At this point, they couldn't get the driver on the phone, it was 5 am, and I had to file a police report because Triple A had no idea where my car was. A few hours later I took a walk around the neighborhood and found my car down the street at someone else's house. The tow truck driver left my car, didn't even bother to contact me (even though he was made aware by Triple A that I was waiting up for him to arrive) and put my car keys inside of someone else's mailbox. The level of unprofessionalism is ASTOUNDING.
