    Final cost after 5 days (including weekend when they're closed)
    Brett W.

    $730 to get my car towed. Got unexpectedly towed on the weekend and I couldn't pick it up for 5 days. The owner was nice and tried to explain the reasoning but there is no excuse for this cost. It's a complete rip off and I'll be reporting the company to the BBB. I called the police and that is was they recommend I do.

    Only took him 3-5 min to hook my car very fast and safe!

    Ray help me with a tow today when my clutch blew out, he was very professional! Very well mannered and even showed up in 15 minutes! Not many towing company's take card only cash but they take both! Everyone leaving 1 star reviews are obviously upset due to the car being towed for being parked somewhere they shouldn't be in the first place and any place you get towed for not being in a proper parking spot is going to range 300-400$ its so absurd that people leave reviews complaining about the charges, next time don't park your car where it shouldn't be then you won't have any issues!!

    While no one ever wants to need a tow, Aliso Viejo Towing & Recovery has been a lifesaver for me…read morerecently. First, they helped when my battery died near my home. Since I had purchased my previous battery through them, it was still under their 3-year warranty, and they replaced it entirely for free. Two weeks later, my transmission light came on. They arrived promptly, handled the situation professionally, and towed me 15 miles to RSM Honda--even letting me ride along to the shop. Thank you for being there for your customers and making a stressful month much easier!

    0 stars if I could. Absolutely terrible experience…read more AAA Roadside Assistance contracted AV Towing to tow my car to my mechanic last night, and this has been one of the worst roadside assistance experiences I've ever had. When the tow truck driver arrived, he initially told me that I had to be physically present at my mechanic to receive the car because the shop was closed. I called AAA and put them on speakerphone with the driver. AAA explained to him that I did not need to be physically present if the mechanic had a key drop box. The driver could simply leave the car in an appropriate spot and put the keys in the drop box. At that point, the driver explained that if there was no space available in the mechanic's lot, he couldn't just leave the car somewhere outside the lot because it could potentially be towed. AAA then explained the policy: if there was no appropriate place to leave the vehicle at the mechanic, the driver was supposed to take it back to the towing yard and store it overnight, with me responsible for the storage fee. The car would then be towed to the mechanic the following morning. The tow truck driver acknowledged that I would have to pay the storage fee, and I said, "Yeah, that's fine." At that point, it was already around 8 p.m., I had been waiting over an hour for the tow truck, and I have two young children, ages 4 and 6, who needed to get home for dinner and bedtime. I just wanted to be done with the whole situation. I was completely fine with paying the storage fee for the night -- just take the car back to your yard, store it overnight, and we'll figure it out with the mechanic in the morning. I left assuming that was exactly what was going to happen. Except that isn't what happened. This morning, I called my mechanic and was told my car was not there. I then called AV Towing, and that's when I found out that the driver had apparently left my car in the parking lot next to the side of the road where my car originally broke down. Not at my mechanic. Not at the towing yard. And despite the fact that he had my phone number and knew the situation, he never called or texted me to tell me where he had left my car. So now I'm left having to drive over there and hope my car hasn't been towed from the private parking lot where it was left. I then called AAA again to have the car towed to my mechanic, and I was told that they now needed me to be physically present to receive the car. At that point, it honestly felt like they were simply refusing to provide the service I pay for. I don't understand how this is acceptable. AAA gave the tow company clear instructions, I agreed to pay the storage fee if necessary, and instead the driver apparently decided to leave my vehicle somewhere completely different -- without notifying me. I'm now left dealing with the consequences of their failure to follow instructions and communicate with me. I've filed a formal complaint with AAA, and I'm going to do everything I can to have AAA's contract with AV Towing terminated so other AAA members don't have to experience what I did. This has been an unbelievably frustrating experience from start to finish. I pay for roadside assistance specifically so I don't have to deal with situations like this, yet somehow I'm the one who has had to spend even more time and effort trying to locate and get my own car to my mechanic. Absolutely unacceptable.

My…read moreGerman Altima had been sitting in the driveway for eight months in a state of mechanical reflection, misfiring like it owed somebody three child support payments. I needed a tow to fix and smog. Simple. Routine. The kind of errand a grown man should be able to complete without a film crew. I called AAA. I'm a Premier member, ten years deep, never asked for so much as a free water bottle. AAA dispatched ERS Towing. Enter Mike. Mike pulled up to my crib in a flatbed -- emphasis on flatbed, the truck specifically engineered for moving cars that do not run -- and walked around my German Altima like it had personally insulted his mother. He stopped at the bumper. The bumper was aftermarket. Mike, summoning the dramatic energy of a man who had never seen a winch in his entire career, declared the vehicle untowable. A flatbed. Defeated. By a piece of plastic that does not even move. While this was unfolding, shawty's son Aiden was on my living room floor eating Hot Cheetos with the focused intensity of a CEO reviewing Q3 earnings. Aiden is five. Aiden has those little silver caps on his front teeth and a stare that has historically destabilized grown men, tax accountants, and at least one Lyft driver I know personally. He locked eyes with me through the screen door, mid-Cheeto, and I could feel him judging me AND Mike simultaneously. I have never in my life been on the same side of a conflict as Aiden. The fact that he and I were aligned against ERS Towing was, in retrospect, the first sign I was about to win something larger than a tow. Dispatch called. Enter Amy. Amy did not yet have a second reason to deny my service -- so Mike, and I want this part read slowly, took an actual photograph of my expired registration sticker and texted it to her, the way a man builds a federal case from his driver's seat. Within 12 business minutes, two unrelated disqualifying issues had been documented, photographed, and triple-archived by two coordinating employees. Neither reason exists in the AAA Member Guide. I have read the AAA Member Guide. Twice. Aiden has probably read it at this point. My German Altima has adjustable air suspension. The car can literally rise to greet you. The bumper concern was theoretical at best. The expired sticker is not a disqualifier under the AAA contract. Mike and Amy appear to operate from a secret rulebook hand-stitched in the parking lot of a Chevron, possibly inside a Nissan Altima with one working brake light, possibly with Aiden as a consultant. My theory, served free of charge: the tow destination was a few miles farther than ERS felt like driving on a Tuesday morning, and 'we don't feel like it' sounded less professional than manufacturing two excuses. Long tows are apparently outside the boutique service tier. Greed dressed up as policy. Roadside refusal as a subscription model. I did not subscribe. I did not get my tow. I did get a documentary. Aiden finished his Cheetos, wiped his hands on the couch, and gave me one slow silver-toothed nod -- the closest he has ever come to validating me as a human being. At that moment I knew I would be writing this review. One star. ERS Towing -- please return the AAA contract. You don't serve this community. You audition it. Even Aiden agreed, and Aiden agrees with no one. AAA, please send a different contractor next time. Mike and Amy can keep the photograph as a souvenir.
