When Standard Towing Isn't Enough

Heavy-duty wrecker and rotator recovery for big rigs and motorhomes.

A Class 8 grain truck jackknifes on Highway 403 during harvest season. A fifth-wheel RV breaks down on the QEW during peak travel. A commercial box truck tips on a residential street. These calls need heavy-duty equipment, not a standard wheel-lift. Rotators, wreckers and lowboys handle highway clearance, insurance documentation and safe load management that light-duty rigs cannot.

When a heavy-duty towing call reaches the operator, the first questions are make, length, GVWR and what failed. The right wrecker is routed based on equipment match, not just proximity. Estimated arrival, scope of work and upfront pricing are confirmed before the rig rolls. Ontario pricing typically ranges $80 to $150 for hook-up, plus $3 to $6 per kilometre, with after-hours surcharges of $20 to $50 between 10 PM and 6 AM. Learn more about heavy-duty towing options, semi-truck recovery, and rotator wrecker service.
