I'm not the type to leave reviews often but I want to warn other trucking companies out there. This is one of those tow companies that takes advantage of truckers when they're most vulnerable. During this recent cold weather Iowa has been experiencing in the last couple days with temperatures being in the negative degrees, our truck went down on I35 in Iowa approx 20 miles from their shop. We agreed to allow them to tow the truck to their shop and allow the truck to warm up with their space heaters & blankets as they said they had. Being a smaller company, we watch every nickle and dime we can, so naturally we asked what would they charge us. They verbally gave us a great rate initially because they said how close we were to them. It was under $1k. We felt that was fair at the time. Fast forward to them getting our truck warmed up. They emailed us the bill and they ended up billing us for nearly 4k! And demanded we pay in order for truck to be released. It was a whole bait & switch. There was no additonal heads up about price increase or nothing! They were very rude and nasty when we tried to talk to them and work this out. I asked the guy on the phone if I could speak with the manager or owner and he said NO because the owner was out grabbing another truck. He said we would have to wait until the AM to speak with the owner. I asked would we be charged additional to do that and he said "Yes, $125 additional for storage." I told him you gotta be kidding me. An additional charge when I'm not allowed to speak to the owner right now to work out this outrageous bill. I'm all for paying for a service but I'm not for extortion. I look forward to the day where these predatory towing companies get what's coming to them. We learned after the fact that this tow company has a reputation for this kind of predatory fees and charges. Until something is done fellow truckers, beware of Tony's Tire/Towing Service in Williams, Iowa! read more

While traveling from Tucson to Minneapolis I had a flat tire at Williams, Iowa. Since it was on a Sunday I had to call Tony's number and he agreed to send someone out to fix my flat. After waiting a couple of hours an employee showed up to help me. The worker ruined the special key used to remove the lug bolts on my bmw and he spent the next few hours trying to remove the wheel in order to fix my flat. After failing he told me someone in the morning could absolutely remove the lug without the key and fix my flat. So we got a room for the night and returned to Tony's the next morning. Another worker spent an hour or so trying to remove the tire but he failed also. Only other option was to take it somewhere else to get fixed all because Tony's had ruined the key needed to remove the special lug bolt. This of course caused all of my problems of not be able to get the tire fixed. Tony's charged me $1250 for working on my car. (they caused the whole problem and fixed nothing. Then I had to tow car 150 miles to Minneapolis at a cost of over $1000!! BMW in Minneapolis fixed the problem and charged me $219. Stopping a Tony's was the worst experience of my life and I can't believe they ruined my lug key and charged me $1200 for their efforts. They are the worst excuse for a business I have ever had dealings with. They screwed me big time and smiled while they were doing it. My advice is to stay away from Tony's at all cost!!!!! read more
