Threatened to tow my vehicle while it was legally parked on a public city street in downtown Cle…read moreElum. There was no driveway, no yellow curb, no official City of Cle Elum parking sign, and no other indication that curb parking was restricted. The only "No Parking/Tow Away" sign was attached to the fence of a private residence behind the public sidewalk. Under Washington law, a private impound applies to vehicles on private property, while a public impound is authorized by law enforcement or another public official with jurisdiction over the public property. See RCW 46.55.010 and RCW 46.55.080. I have not found any Cle Elum ordinance authorizing private residents or tow operators to reserve or tow vehicles from otherwise unrestricted public street parking. Rather than explaining any legal authority, the driver simply told me to move my car after backing up with lights on posturing. Bummer for him, I had a bad day and am a lawyer, but also too tired to confront a wanna be cowboy. I moved my vehicle because it wasn't worth risking an improper tow, but the experience was unnecessarily hostile and intimidating.

Michael and Karl were amazing help!

Then I talked with Karl about our other vehicle for at least 10 minutes and he answered all my questions making me even more convinced that we are very blessed to have this shop in our town!! They did us a solid and donated their time making us even more committed to seek their valuable expertise! Great value for price paid!!

All in all Karl went over and above to ensure we received the best service and got us back on the road lickity split. Thank you Les Schwab and Karl.

Thanks JD!

After a long day of driving from Lynnwood to Pasco and dealing with all possibilities of what a 10…read morehour round trip consists of, my dad's alternator in his truck started to malfunction on the way back to home in Lynnwood. We called any auto-shop in the area and since they all close early, they gave us JD's number. He was incredibly generous to be able to help us out on his day off and get us back on the road. Being with my dad, 13 year old sister, and our dog- we were all exhausted and irritable. I'm super grateful for JD and the work he & his family are able to do for us on a hot Saturday evening. Thank you so much again JD for your hard work and understanding through our incredibly stressful day. If we ever come by the area with another car problem, you're our first stop!!

Warrior's Quick Stop -- avoid if you have kids or basic hygiene standards…read more The men's restroom is genuinely one of the worst I've seen on the road. Out of two stalls, only one is functional. Both are filthy -- not "needs a quick wipe" dirty, but visibly neglected. One of two sinks works, and the urinal area is just disgusting. To top it off, the door swings inward -- so while you're washing your hands, it opens right into you. It nearly slammed into my 3-year-old son. That's not just poor maintenance, that's a safety hazard. This place needs a serious deep clean and a basic facilities audit before it deserves another customer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

This is not an Ivar's fish bar!! I have lived in the PNW my whole life and I am very familiar with…read moreIvar's fish and chips (grew up on it and Spuds). Let's start off with the fact that the fish was burnt (see picture) and absolutely disgusting. Not to mention the skippers check paper inside the 3 compartment to-go container. Another thing you will notice they put tarter and cocktail sauce in the top two compartments. Both sauces were rancid and the whole order was thrown away! I hate wasting food but I just could not bring myself to eating such a gross meal (yes it is a truck stop and I should not expect 5stars lol). In closing if you want the real Ivar's fish and chips go to one of their fish bars or sit down fine dining restaurants. Heck they have been doing it since the thirties so in my book they deserve some credit! Bottom line do not eat the fish and chips at this place period.

​Thomas from Cle Elum Towing picked up my car and camp trailer from Exit 53 on I-90 and took me all…read morethe way home to Port Orchard, Washington. He dropped off my camp trailer, me, and my little dog at my home, then took my car into town and delivered it to my mechanic. Thomas did everything he said he was going to do. He knew what he was doing, and he double-checked all of his work. During the approximately two-hour drive home, we had plenty to talk about, and he made what had been a difficult situation much easier. But one of the things that impressed me most happened right at the beginning. The first thing Thomas did when he got out of his truck on the side of I-90 was hand me a fresh bottle of water. That small act of kindness meant a great deal to me. Thomas was professional, careful, dependable, and genuinely kind. Cle Elum Towing has an excellent driver in Thomas, and I am very grateful that he was the person who came to help me.

We utilized the rental on June 21, 2025 and it was an absolute blast! The unit that was previously allocated for the rental had been sold, and the staff graciously upgraded our unit to the next level of SxS up. We chose a trail side drop off option where they trailered the unit to and from the shop, which makes it super convenient. Definitely recommended. After signing waivers, getting fitted for helmets and goggles, and going over some general safety guidelines we had an amazing experience all provided by the MotorToys crew. I would totally recommend renting, getting service done by, and working with the crew at MotorToys in Cle Elum to anyone in the future!

Leading up to Friday before Labor Day, I was running on very minimal sleep that week due to caring for my mother who has stage 4 breast cancer in combination with working all week long as a health care provider. I was finally able to take time to myself and get away from the city to decompress and made my way to Cle Elum for a weekend camping trip with family and friends. While trying to find a place to set up camp, the river was dried up and I probably had no business driving off road while sleep deprived which led me into a sand ditch. I felt like a horrible person because I created this disaster for my friends and family to deal with at the beginning of our camping trip which could've been easily avoided if I wasn't so stubborn and just let someone else drive for me knowing I was very tired. Lesson learned. Mistakes and accidents happen in life, that is why there are towing companies available to help get you out of messy situations - in my case, a sandy one. After being stuck for 5 hours, you become desperate and vulnerable. During my frantic cry for help to local authorities and other tow companies, they either said they couldn't come because they were unavailable or didn't know if they could help (since I was stuck off road and their tow truck may not be able to drive down to me where I was stuck in the sand). Scott showed up and I literally cried when my car was finally pulled out of the ditch. It was a hard tow but Scott didn't give up, he was very persistent in getting me out of the ditch. He was very helpful and understanding throughout the entire process. I felt like an idiot and he wasn't judgmental at all about the situation I got myself in. Out of the kindness of his heart and being a Good Samaritan, Scott decided he didn't want to charge me the full tow price which was a huge financial relief to me as a single mom to two special needs children. He restored my faith in humanity and I can vouch for him by saying he's sincere and caring. He derailed all negative stigmas surrounding towing companies on this day. I feel forever indebted and truly thankful for his services. I hope anyone who travels through his jurisdiction requiring a tow reaches out to him first because he deserves to be successful in his towing business as an honest, trustworthy and compassionate businessman.
