Had a flat tire and Unique Towing came out through Geico. Carlos (150) came out very promptly. He was police and courteous and found me in the huge parking lot almost immediately. He was obviously very competent and got the car hooked up on his flat bed right away and took me where I needed to go to get it fixed. If I had to call a tow company directly this will be my first call. Thank you Carlos! read more

I called the towing company at 3:19 pm, and the representative quoted me $327 to retrieve my car. When I arrived at the location at 5:28 pm the same day, the total had jumped to $746. The following fees had been tacked on: 1. $311 gate fee (not listed anywhere on their website, on this page, or by representative) The hours on both their Yelp and Apple Maps pages are wrong. They are not 24/7; they close at 5 p.m. If you come to retrieve your car past 5 p.m., they tack on this $311 extra fee just to open the gate. Not mentioned anywhere on their website or by the representative when I called. I had wasted $97 on an Uber from SF because I was trying to avoid the $127 daily storage fee they charge (also not on their website, but was mentioned by the representative). Turns out I would have been better just waiting. 2. $61 extra storage fee (not listed anywhere on their website, on this page, or by representative). Apparently they initially charge a 4h fee (when I called) after which they charge a day fee (when I arrived). When I called, the representative did not mention any of these fees. I'm highly suspicious of the timing of it as well. My friend noticed my car being towed at 2:00 p.m. It could not have possibly been at Unique Towing for more than 4 hours by the time I arrived at 5:30 p.m. 3. $47 extra tow fee Apparently the representative had misquoted me at $327, and the actual fee was $374. Instead of honoring the quote, they decided to just bump the price. I'm disappointed with this company's lack of transparency and hope this review can help anyone else with the misfortune of having to deal with them. read more

I was involved in a three-car collision on a freeway in San Jose. CHP dispatched this tow company to remove my vehicle from the freeway. The tow truck took over an hour to arrive. During that time, a truck matching the description drove past my location without stopping. I called the dispatch number provided by CHP, but they were unable to locate or provide an update on the assigned tow truck. Ultimately, I contacted a different tow company, which was able to respond and assist me. Based on this experience, I would not rely on this company for roadside assistance in a time-sensitive or safety-critical situation. read more

I was charged $775 to have my car towed from the accident scene to my home. Is that legal? They took advantage of the fact that I was in shock and misled me! I think it's a scam. read more

This was my very first roadside assistance experience, and unfortunately, it turned out to be quite disappointing. I was charged $250 for a short 3-mile tow, which really caught me off guard--especially since most towing services in the area quoted around $75-$150 for under 10 miles. While I have no complaint about the driver or the service itself--they arrived within 30 minutes as promised and handled the towing professionally--the pricing felt unreasonably high. Afterward, from home I called another company to verify, and they quoted me $140 for the same distance right away. Even I said I'm just looking for a better price & she willing to lower down & talk to his driver. It's disheartening to feel taken advantage of during a stressful moment, especially when you're in a panic and just trying to get help. I hope this company reviews their pricing policy and provides more transparency so future customers don't experience the same. The girl that I talked really sketchy when she gave the price. I'll post this to all social media so other driver be warn. BEWARE!!! Date happened 11/02/2025 12.45PM UPDATE: After discussing the matter with the business owner, I was able to share my concerns, and he provided his perspective. He acknowledged that the pricing was on the higher side, attributing it to the quality of their workmanship and the fact that they are a licensed provider. As a gesture of goodwill, he offered $40 refund which I appreciate. We both recognized that there was a communication gap, particularly on the part of the dispatcher, regarding the scope and nature of the services to be rendered. Despite the initial misunderstanding, I am satisfied with the resolution and have updated my rating to 3 stars. read more

Very nice and responsive operator. Easy turn around time and appointment. The tow trucker takes longer to come than normal due to high volume of traffic. The price was a bit high, the tow was less than 3 miles away for over 200$ read more

This towing service is a money sucking company nothing to do with Policy 101 San Fernando Apartments in San Jose. I have an apartment there. I was parked in my parking stall with my resident hanger on my car mirror but the tow guy said he couldn't see my apartment number, so they tow my car I had to pay over $400 to get my vehicle even though my hanger was still hanging on the mirror. In fact, the guy who took me agreed with me called the manager out, showed him my car with my resident hanging on the mirror and the manager still said oh well the driver couldn't see the apartment number so she still has to pay it. They are not a reputable company. They are not fair. There are money sucking company be very careful. Beware. read more

Rolando did an amazing job at towing our car when my mom and I were connected to him through Geico Roadside Assistance. Earlier today, the tire came off the rim, my car was shaking, and I had to exit the freeway to stop at a parking lot. The Unique Towing truck came in just 45 minutes, which was quick. Rolando was careful to ensure that the left front tire rim wouldn't be further scratched by placing blocks underneath the front tires to first drag the car out of the parking space. Then, he placed a wooden block to put underneath the front rim while he lifted and towed the car by the front (where the damage was located). Thank you again Rolando! read more

Jose and Steve truly went above and beyond. They took care of everything quickly and safely and made me feel like a top priority getting my car in. I wasn't in a safe place, and they stepped in right away to help, which meant so much to me. Jose was especially wonderful so pleasant, always smiling, and genuinely kind. An all around great experience thanks to both of them. Thank you Unique!!! read more

One of the most bizarre and frustrating experiences I've ever had with a company. From the very first call, the representative clearly had no idea how to help and kept putting me on hold to ask someone else basic questions. The only redeeming part was that the driver gave me a heads-up when he was on the way--so I'll give one star for that. Then it got weirder: someone called me as the tow truck arrived and asked for my credit card info--but wanted it over the phone, which already felt sketchy. When I tried calling back, the voicemail didn't even mention the company name ("Unique Towing"), which made me even more uneasy about handing over sensitive info. But the final straw? I asked the driver--Chris--if this was the usual process for payment and receipts. His response? He called me a "smart ass." When I asked him not to speak to me like that, he turned around, walked away, said "have a good evening," and left without towing my vehicle. This entire company is unprofessional, disorganized, and frankly, incredibly disrespectful. If you have any choice in the matter, avoid them at all costs--even if they're contracted by local authorities. My experience was not just inconvenient--it was infuriating and shady. read more

Chris did an amazing job taking care of me when the tire on my Civic Type R blew out. Chris arrived in a timely manner, but unfortunately my car was too low (from factory) so instead of attempting it anyhow, he took the safe route of getting a flatbed. Everything was very smooth, quick, and affordable. He was able to tow my car home without a problem, taking extra care not to damage any part of my car. Thank you again Chris! read more

SCAMMERS AND THIEVES! This place is a total joke. They steal from the cars they tow for CHP and then act clueless when you call them out. The staff gives you the runaround and false info so you don't show up too soon -- probably because they're going through your stuff first. My belongings were clearly tampered with: bags opened, things missing, and everything tossed around. They claim their workers "don't touch vehicles," but that's a lie. Super shady operation with zero professionalism. Stay away! read more

Major shout-out to Jaime and Unique Towing for helping us when our Tesla Model Y low-voltage battery died without warning, which renders the car unable to do anything (open doors, put in neutral, etc.). We were connected with Unique Towing through Tesla Roadside Assistance and could not have been more pleased after 2 unsuccessful tow operators through AAA. Jaime arrived promptly and communicated with us while he was on the way. When he arrived, he was efficient but very thoughtful about getting the car on the flatbed and securing it (even though the doors an trunk couldn't close) - he clearly knew what he was doing and took really exceptional care of the car. Never ideal to have your car die on you, but we were grateful to have Jaime and Unique Towing there to help. Would happily call on them if/when something like this happens again! read more

Joselo is the most professional driver I've ever seen. He towed my toolbox with care and is very friendly. 5 stars all across the board with this experience!! read more

Highest Recommendation Possible ... !!! We parked a car at the rear of our property for 16 yrs. The easement we used to park the car changed hands and they put up a gate and lock. The property managers insisted we pay a large fee for key. They also insisted that the tow company have many insurances. Unique towing provided a bid and proof of insurance. Turned out the brakes were frozen on the car and we would need to move the car in a very tight space with no brakes. We contacted Unique Towing again and explained the issue with pictures and they were able to provide a solution. The day of the tow I was very nervous, the trucks were big, and easement was very tight. They confidently and cautiously eased their way down the easement to the back garage. They skillfully pulled the car from the garage to the easement with one truck, and then pulled the car out with the other. I was amazed at their skill and friendliness. Unique Towing will be the company we ask for going forward. Wow ... Thank you read more

I never thought I'd write a glowing review for a towing company but Unique Towing and Jesús were exceptional. I got a flat on my car and roadside assistance service partnered me with Unique Towing. Amazingly they showed up in less than 15 minutes! Jesús arrived and was so friendly and took me and my car to the service center in less than 20 minutes. This was outstanding service. Much appreciated Jesús and Unique! read more

If you are ever in a dire situation when your car won't start up like mine did tonight while out, I highly recommend Unique Towing. The lady who picked up my call and the tow truck driver were both very pleasant and helpful that made such an unexpected, stressful situation into a not so bad experience. They responded fairly quick (under 30 minutes) on a holiday evening. read more

Terrible experience they quoted me a certain amount and when they pickup and towed my car they gave me a different price than we had agreed on !!! Definitely not recommended read more

Nemo provided excellent service getting my lowered Supra on his bed after I had gotten a flat. I've never seen a tow truck service come with a flat bed with a variety of wooden blocks to load lowered cars before and was amazed by the service Nemo provided for this tow. He was informative and easy to talk to. Very clean truck interior when bringing me to my drop off location. Highly recommend and hard to miss their fleet from the exterior! read more

I had an excellent experience this morning towing my Tesla S to B2 Perfection shop for repair. Odell was an outstanding tow truck driver that was punctual, professional and very polite and respectful. I was following him in my car and appreciated his driving skills, his patience, and the care he showed guiding me to the auto repair shop. Odell has earned a 5-Star rating from me. Outstanding skilled and careful driver. Thank you very much Odell. read more

The whole process was awesome from calling in and setting up the pick up. The driver was so professional and treated the truck with such respect. He used cloth straps instead of chains. He put a towel on the wench cable to make sure he didn't scratch the frame. I am so happy with this tow. I will always use them for this truck. I have AAA but they send you anyone and Unique towing sends out a professional person. Thanks again for a great experience. read more

Antonio literally saved our lives. We were broken down on the side of 680 because the boat trailer's wheel fell off while driving. He arrived much earlier than the estimated time and somehow managed to get our lopsided boat trailer loaded and unloaded without a scratch on it. I am not sure how they train for these things. It was frightening to watch but he handled it with so much care. If it was anyone else, I am convinced the boat would have dropped off. Thank you Antonio and Unique Towing!!!!! read more

I was driving my work van when I heard a thumping noise and looked out to see a flat tire. I pulled over to a safe area to inspect the tire and it was actually a slash tire. It looked like the tire was worn out and ripped. I called unique towing and spoke to someone immediately. I gave them all the information and everything was completed within 2 minutes, and the staff on the phone said the towing truck will arrive in 45 minutes. The towing truck arrived exactly at 45 minutes. The towing guy named Ricardo was very friendly, fast and efficient. He towed the van and completed everything within 10 minutes. He communicated efficiently and provided me with the information. Overall, this was my first experience with unique towing and I had a great experience. read more

My mom's car got some problems and I searched for the tow company, they were super fast to come and the price is reasonable.

I needed a tow service asap, called here and got them arrived in 20 mins. The towing was done very professionally.

My tire got slashed in my apartment parking garage which was a real bummer, but my pleasant experience with Joe (#131) and the Unique Towing team really refreshed my faith in humanity! As part of my roadside assistance with Geico, they were dispatched to help put my spare tire on. The team was extremely prompt and communicative! Minutes after I contacted Geico, a receptionist from Unique Towing called to confirm the appointment, she was very kind & professional. Then, Joe arrived at my home only 15 minutes later!! He was very patient in locating my parking garage, and quickly swapped the tire out. He gave some nice advice, suggesting wheels locks to avoid further issues (as tires/wheels were being stolen in similar garages in the area). The whole thing was fast and painless. Joe was great, I appreciate the help! read more

When AAA let's you down, call unique towing. Believe the man's name was Tony that helped me out of a jam, polite and professional and did the job two other drivers said they couldn't do.

The owner is rude and money hungry. AVOID if you want to ever see your car and take out personal belongings. My car was taken there after an accident and he said, leave it at my tow yard for security (so he can collect more daily fees) Does he think I was born yesterday? My insurance fought 4 days with them to release my vehicle because a verbal They want physical card emailed and 100 authorizations to make it difficult to get your vehicle out. Do not call them for tow or storage. Their rates are much higher and they believe they own your car that point. IT'S NOT YOUR CAR GET IT STRAIGHT. They claim only 1 person can see the vehicle for 15 minutes a day because there is SO MUCH TRAFFIC coming through the yard. I didn't see a single vehicle moved. Only 5 staff sitting around because they had no jobs to do. AVOID AVOID AVOID read more
