Back in August of this year 2023, I was in a stressful situation because unfortunately my car was…read morestuck in a mud pie and I needed help. The West Side Towing and Recovery Company did a tremendous job and got me out of a stressful and sticky situation. No pun intended. I hope no one goes through the situation I went through. But if it should happen, the West Side Towing And Recovery Team did a tremendous job and I will never forget the kindness of the Brothers Steve and Doug. Once again, thank you very much for your service, support, help and kindness. I also hope you and the families have a very Happy and Healthy New Year. All the best, Jonathan E Mason

West Side Towing & Recovery isn't just a tow company--they're real-life heroes…read more While traveling from Boston to Poughkeepsie with my wife and three kids (including our 8-month-old), our 2005 Expedition broke down unexpectedly on the Taconic State Parkway. The sun was beating down, traffic was flying by, and we were stuck--scared, hot, and out of options. After a day full of sky-high quotes and zero compassion from other companies, I made one last call. That's when I found West Side Towing & Recovery--a family-run business out of Red Hook, NY. Steven Lown answered the phone personally. I told him my situation, and he responded with calm, genuine concern. Although his tow truck could only fit two passengers, he didn't hesitate--his wife Danielle jumped in her own car and followed behind to safely transport my family. I've never experienced anything like that level of care from a towing company. They drove us 45+ miles to our family event. No price gouging. No shady add-ons. Transparent pricing, honest service, and pure kindness. I tried to tip them several times--they kindly refused. 24/7 Emergency Towing Family-Owned & Operated Long-Distance Towing Specialists Honest, Fair, and Truly Compassionate If you're ever in need, don't just Google "tow truck near me"--call West Side Towing & Recovery. Save their number. One day, you'll be glad you did. They didn't just tow our car. They rescued my family.

If you're on a tight budget, they'll even look to find discount parts for you.

Thank you all for always being so knowledgeable, reliable, and helpful.

Tim Hart pretends to be a decent human being. In fact, he is a liar and a cheat…read more Like many liars, he cannot remember what he said before, so I heard many contradictory things from him. When my Honda CRV stopped working, he said it needed a whole new engine and that he had one all lined up. Believing his story, I sold the car to him for well less than 1/10th of its value. After he bought the car it suddenly did not need a new engine and was repaired at no cost by his friends in Red Hook. I kept in touch with him. A few weeks later, he could not remember what problems the car had that need to be repaired. Five months later, he suddenly could remember, and gave me a list of things that had been repaired. One of these items, the brakes, had been inspected and okayed by my own expert mechanic prior to the car's breakdown. Furthermore Mr. Hart claimed that he wanted my car to loan to clients whose cars he is repairing. What did he do that? If he advertised himself as a used car dealer, customers would be more suspicious and harder to swindle; if his purchase offer seems to be a one-time thing, he can cheat you all the better. He resold my car a few months after he bought it from me. Tim Hart is in fact a used car dealer and a dishonest one. Why do people lie in the first place? Lies are not a baroque linguistic decoration; they are a strategy to benefit the liar and disadvantage you. If your car won't go, take it to a reputable repair person who is not trying to buy your car. It is worth the towing fees to avoid being scammed for thousands of dollars. Do not believe what an expert says if he is trying to buy your car at the same time since he has a vested interest in lying to you. There are a handful honest and decent people in the car world and I have found two of them by now. Tim Hart is not an honest and decent human being. He is essentially a crook who should be avoided at all costs. I don't know how he sleeps at night.

I've been to both chains and mom-and-pop shops in the area, and have often left feeling the job wasn't done well (which later bears out), takes too long, and/or I've been overcharged for the service. This is not the case at Red Hook Auto--Joe's fantastic at his job, honest, and incredibly efficient. He also gives great referrals (body shops and such) if needed. I'm very grateful we found Joe and I highly recommend!

Well, they sold me a battery then said they weren't comfortable swapping them out. They recommended a nearby shop but, once I drove there, that shop refused to install someone else's battery and wanted to charge me over $700 which seemed really fishy. So I was stuck with a $200 battery and a truck I couldn't turn off. Gave someone else a call and they recommended E. Mower & Son. These mechanics couldn't have been nicer. They saw the bind I was in and took care of me right away at a more-than-reasonable price. I was so blown away and I can't recommend this place enough!
