These guys are great! I called and needed my son's totaled and stripped down truck towed from my house to a recycling plant. Another towing company left me in the lurch, so I needed this done within an hour of my phone call. Brian was terrific and set it up for me (with a great price!) and Mark, the driver, was quick to get the truck loaded and to the destination in time. Profession and courteous, if you ever need a vehicle towed, absolutely use S&K Towing!! read more

This company tows United States Marines vehicles and sells them illegally! Absolutely horrible. If you see their trucks they are crooked. read more

This tow company just agreed to pay $160K to resolve being prosecuted by the Federal DOJ for illegally selling about 150 vehicles owned by our military servicemen while they were away on duty. Many of the servicemen were stationed at Camp Pendleton. S&K says they're closing its operations because of the bad press so watch out if they open under a new name. Same crooks. read more

S & K Towing - News coverage documenting DOJ prosecution and resolution. - Towing Near Me - San Clemente, California

this is a very shady company who works in connection with the county sheriff department for kick backs, they will charge you hundreds of dollars to tow your car out of an intersection after you've stalled, but never tells you the cost, then won't release your car until you pay their unreasonable ransom, $450 to tow less than 80 yards, they're the worst people on the planet read more

Thief's who took and sold service members cars, some while they were deployed. Hopefully these people go onto debt and out of business.

Shame on you for selling servicemembers vehicles. Enjoy the $160,000 judgment. Should have been 10x that. Never use this business if you respect the service of our men and women in the military. read more

Very unprofessional establishment. Use any other tow service but them. They'll just steal your car.

Unfortunately I ended up having my car towed and had to retrieve it from S&K Towing. The gentleman that helped me, I believe his name was Mark or Mike, was extremely helpful, patient, and empathetic. Just wanted to say thank you for making a stressful situation suck a little less. read more

Jessie and Kevin were super helpful when my dad's car got towed when he had a medical emergency while out of town. They gave me all the details to retrieve his car and were friendly and professional. Thank you! read more

This place is...kind of great? Obviously not an ideal situation to come here, but the guy working was attentive and cordial. He was generous with his time and all around very helpful and clear. Plus I left my ID there and they mailed it back to me without any hesitation. read more

I ran out of gas on the freeway and called S & K Towing -- they were absolutely amazing! Within just a few minutes on the phone, they confirmed all the details, offered a solution, and sent help right away. In less than 10 minutes, their truck arrived with fuel, and they handled everything quickly and professionally. I was back on the road in about 15 minutes total! It was my first experience with a towing company, and it couldn't have gone better -- fast, efficient, and super friendly service. Highly recommend! read more

While not an ideal situation, while my vehicle was being "stored" here, Jessie did an excellent job keeping it safe and secure. Thank you, Jessie! read more

All I can say is, Mark and Frank. You guys rock! Thanks for all your help you seriously saved the day.

Scam artists! Price gouging. Charged us $319.00 for a 100 yard tow. Price not given before the tow. Then the owner treated my wife rudely and held our SUV hostage until she paid. I have had other cars towed much longer distances for half the price or less. If I can keep a couple people from using this service, I will have done a good thing. The bad reviews are all true. read more

Avoid this circus at all costs here's how they handled our situation... my son was pulled over for speeding I'm not happy about it but i also consider it an honest mistake during the interaction with the chp officer finds my sons license was expired yes I'm upset but still an honest mistake so the officer decides to impound the car. Here's where s&k towing is involved they managed to get on the rotation for tows with the chp when the supposed tow truck driver mark arrives he lifts the Lexus is250 from the front, this is an automatic transmission rear wheel drive car can not be towed in this manner unless the car is put on dolly's so the rear wheels are off the ground. This did not happen and my son was not aware. Mark the supposed tow truck operator told my son and his girlfriend that he was going to leave the car running so he knew that he was not towing the car properly. Now when we picked the car up I didn't do a thorough walk around (my mistake) when we got home I saw that the right rear of the bumper had damage and the bumper light was broken you could also see where someone had wiped the scuff mark off because the car was dirty (see pictures). I immediately called the tow yard and was directed toward Jesse who immediately went on the defensive even going so far as blaming my son because his drivers license was expired. He knew the damage was there he explained how when something like this happens they look up the citation to see what the reason for impound was. Jesse went on to explain that this happens all the time so if the driver if pulled over for driving while intoxicated he probably won't remember about a broken or damaged bumper and taillight so this tells me that this happens to others as well he was ready with his story and would not accept any responsibility for the damage. These clowns have no business dealing with other peoples property and can not act responsibly or do the job of towing and storing cars properly. Be aware do not give this circus any business steer clear. The only reason they have a 2 star rating is because you can't leave less than a 1 star rating. read more

S & K Towing - Towing Near Me - San Clemente, California

See all

This business have the most INCOMPETENT people, not only on the road side assisting people but also people behind the desk. My employee ran out of gas and called asking for assistance, not only they took advantage of the the situation by inflating the price but the person who came puts diesel instead of gas in my truck. When I called to complain she (person answering the phones) said, before I said anything "that's the fee, that's the agreement with OCSD, which lead me to believe that they get these kind of complaints all the time. I have vm of her stating I requested gas and a written receipt. I am planning on taking legal action since they aren't returning my phone calls! read more

Total clown show. Scheduled these guys several days before I needed to have my car towed to a repair shop. Confirmed the day before. They called once more to confirm the price. One call with Jesse, two calls with Kevin. And... they didn't show up. Didn't call to let me know. Wouldn't answer my multiple calls. Genius. read more

I asked for a tow from the middle of nowhere, and not only was SK towing able to find and tow me out of a sandpit, they also showed how to get back home as I was from out of town. I would like to say many thanks to Kevin and his driver. Anyone around Oceanside need assistance, go with SK Towing, they are the best! read more

All the bad reviews written for this company are a joke. First of all they are open 24 hours 7 days a week. I have used this company for the last 20 years and they are quick, always show up within 40 minutes, prices are good, and I have never had my vehicle damaged. Their drivers are professsional and have been with this company forever. They are experienced drivers and this tow company has big tow trucks. They are always prepared and these drivers know what they are doing. S & K Towing has been around for a long time and they do local and long distance towing. This is the tow company you want to choose if you break down in the middle of the night - they are always available - Give them a try, you'll see what I mean. They are awesome when it comes to Towing. 949 487 9927 ***** read more

These guys are total clowns. They towed my boat with the outdrive all the way down dragging on the pavement, totally shredded two of the 4 trailer tires and damaged the$10,000 outdrive. When confronted them because I couldn't hardly move the boat off the lot with 2 of 4 trailer tires, they claimed it was existing damage. Go anywhere else, they lie and suck at moving vehicles. read more

No stars!! These fools are crooks- took 3 hours to get towed. Guy on phone rude AF!! So many negative reviews idk how these ppl stay in business. They up charge and accept cash only .... the driver doesn't know how to lower a vehicle either- broke my bumper and said it was like that. ****NEVER USE THEM AGAIN*** ******F-A-I-L***** F-A-I-L****F-A-I-L****F-A-I-L*** read more

Should it really take almost 2 hours to get a tire changed? No Should I get some updates as to the ETA? Yes. Did it happen, nope. It's very frustrating when you pay so much for roadside assistance and yet you have to wait for so long to get it. And of course, when you call and speak to dispatch and there is no f***s given, it just adds salt to the wound. Like, hey guys, my day is already going bad cuz my car is messed up, and then I call the people who are supposed to help and they don't. Customer service is definitely foreign to this business. read more

*roadside assistance through state farm* Waited over an hour and a half with several attempts to call and they didn't answer. After calling my insurance 3 times they finally reached them and said they were canceling because the year "broke down" they could have called and notified us. Found someone else that took care of it fast. Towing solutions in Perris, CA. 5 star service there read more

Terrible customer service, hope you don't have more than just a simple tow or they will charge a ton for their slight inconvenience. Don't get me started if they impound your car. read more

I'm not sure what all of the other reviews here are on about. I called a number of different tow companies in the area and S & K were the only people who were not rude to me. They got my location and arrived within 20 minutes, with an extra large bed tow truck. The driver got us out of a really rough spot, stuck on the side of the interstate. He was very kind and we had some good conversation on our ride. He seemed very sympathetic of the situation we were in. He got us to the ford dealership quickly and dropped us and our Ford Transit off for service. Payment was quick and easy. Very nice guy. read more

Had the same issue as the others on here, guy who answered was very rude and seemed annoyed to talk to me. Definitely don't recommend.

Really really bad experience. No idea how these guys are the service providers to local roadside assistance programs. To recap, my car company assigned them as my tow truck with 30 min ETA. After multiple calls, broken promises, I finally found my own tow truck service 3 hours later when the local law enforcement gave me an ultimatum to move my ride since it was blocking street flow. 1) Unprofessional 2) Lies 3) Literally use any other tow truck provider you can think of read more

Needed a car jump at 4:30AM, after calling another business that was open 24 hours first (with no answer), I called S&K. They picked up right away, quoted me over the phone, got my information quick, and the serviceman got us on the road before 5AM. Thank you for your quick turnaround! read more

Truly bottom of the barrel company. My insurance company booked them. Was given 60-90 ETA. At the 2 hour mark I called SK Towing to check status and was told it would be another 90 minutes. Needless to say I cancelled but don't waste your time. If your insurance company books them, ask for another company. read more

I called this company to inquire about the RV Storage which they promote on their website, google and yelp. The person who answered said "nothing available" and hung up. Really? Bad customer service and very rude. Excuse me, I called. Damn... you have a problem. read more

Not sure how they even get contracted with insurance companies. 1 out of 3 times that I've needed my car to get towed they actually showed up. The other two times they didn't even answer the phone. It's upsetting because when we call it's not like we're having a good time calling them to say hello. We are calling because we genuinely need your help and to not even answer the phone is honestly very disappointing and not to mention terrible customer service. How are they still in business?? read more

This is the worst tow company service ever. Tide customer service. I was stranded and after waiting for 3 hours I finally decided to call them. When I called, they said they cancelled my service bc their driver broke down. When I asked why I wasn't notified, they said they did and called me a liar. When I asked for the persons name I was speaking with, he said his name was Mike and told me to have a good day AND HUNG UP ON ME! I was stranded!!! This is a POS company. read more

They three hours to arrive. I called a few times and there was no answer. When I finally got through, I was told that there were other people ahead of me. read more

Waited 3 hours for a tow with constant reassurances they were on their way. Just got a text from driver telling me to call someone else. Dispatcher not answering phone calls. read more

SK towing is the most horrible towing ever I experienced a five hour wait stuck in traffic & the cold I continue to call over and over what time will they be on arrival they said 30 minutes or 15 minutes no communication whatsoever ! then they canceled after two hours some how I was told it was canceled that they apologize they would redo it again so I had to wait hours I was there stuck from 12 in the afternoon stranded up until 530 then the guy had an attitude when he finally arrived to my car & had a kid helping him ...I felt my car would be unsafe to boot on top of it all that the tow truck wasn't a flat bed ...it was a wheel lift ..all bad ! in the process of that when he dropped my car off at the dealership the next day I was told there was damage underneath my car so I am assuming from them towing it the way he Did he hit a dip or potholes so that messed up my car when all I had was just an overheated problem days later I have to call roadside assistance to tow it to BMW shop same thing 6 hrs waiting no Communication whatsoever then they come out with it was canceled they'll send another guy out bye then BMW Shop is closed because it's already gonna be 530 they close at six I called all through the day and nothing but run around SK towing is the most horrible is ever and I suggest no one to use this tow company They were very rude and don't have the proper tow truck and towing your vehicle all thumbs down to this company sadly to say read more

Roadside assistance call. Arrived at 3:02p, called me once, marked service complete and left. Wow. I'm upset as I waited a really long time and surprise how flippant they just left and didn't notify. Don't worry about or do business w these clowns. read more

Owner Bryan was very rude to me, seemed like he hated talking to customers. I would ask a simple question and he would have attitude and would have attitude. I'm not surprised why this place has 2 star rating. Wouldn't recommend using this company. read more
