Professional Towing Company in Ottawa
Ontario Towing is a family-owned Ottawa towing company, founded in 1999 to give local drivers a towing service they could trust. Over that time, we have helped everyday drivers, local businesses, and commercial fleets through breakdowns, collisions, and winter storms. That experience taught us to read a situation quickly, decide what it needs, and explain the plan to you clearly.
People call us on their worst day, so we answer plainly, act quickly, and make sure you and your vehicle reach safety. We keep our work simple: we explain the problem, move your vehicle carefully, and stay with you until the job is done.

Local Towing Service Across Ottawa and Nearby Neighbourhoods
Ontario Towing covers Ottawa and nearby communities day and night. Check the areas below, and call us wherever your vehicle stops.
Local, Long-Distance, and Specialty Towing
Towing in Ottawa covers more than roadside breakdowns. You may need a winch to free a stuck vehicle, a truck for a boat or trailer, or a long-distance transport. Our towing service covers all of these, from short local moves to long hauls. We choose the right equipment, explain the plan clearly, and confirm the rate in writing before we hook up. Call us any time, and we start your job right away.
Winch Service
When your vehicle slides into a ditch, snowbank, or embankment, a winch pulls it back onto the road without any further damage. Our operators assess the angle, anchor the winch correctly, and recover your vehicle slowly and safely. We then check it over and tow it if it cannot continue.
Motorcycle Towing
A motorcycle needs different handling than a car. We load it onto a flatbed with wheel chocks and soft straps, so the frame, forks, and finish stay protected. Whether it stalled, crashed, or lost a tire, we haul it home or to your shop. Tell us the model before pickup.
Boat Towing
A boat on a trailer needs a secure hitch, working lights, and careful handling. We tow your boat and trailer to the marina, storage yard, or your driveway, and we check the hitch, safety chains, and lights before we leave. Tell us the boat’s length and weight when you call.
Trailer Towing
A trailer that loses a wheel, breaks a hitch, or cannot reach its destination still needs a safe ride. We tow utility trailers, enclosed trailers, and small campers to your home, storage, or shop. Tell us the length and weight when you call, and we confirm we can move it.
Long-Distance Towing
Some breakdowns happen far from home, and some repairs happen in another city. We tow your vehicle across Ontario on a flatbed, plan the route in advance, and give you the full rate in writing before we leave. You skip the rental car, and your vehicle arrives safely on time.
Private Property Towing
An unauthorized vehicle can block your driveway, loading bay, or parking lot and cost you customers. Property managers, landlords, and business owners call us to remove it. You authorize the tow, and we confirm the vehicle’s location and move it quickly. Give us the exact address and the vehicle details.
Local Short-Distance Towing
A short tow across Ottawa still needs the right truck and a clear price. We pick up your vehicle, tow it to your home or mechanic, and keep you updated on your arrival time. Our local Ottawa operators know the fastest routes, so you reach your destination without any delay.
Vehicle Relocation
Is your vehicle headed to a new city or to family far away? We load it onto a flatbed, plan the route, and deliver it to the address you give us. You skip the long trip and the kilometres on your own vehicle. Tell us your move date and time.
Tire Service Ottawa
A flat tire strands you fast, whether it happens on a quiet street or a busy highway shoulder. Our mobile tire service brings the tools to you, so you skip the wait and the tow. We handle quick tire fixes on location, advise you honestly when a tire is beyond repair, and tow your vehicle to a tire shop when the damage needs a trained professional.
Flat Tire Change
We swap your flat for your spare tire on location, tighten each lug nut to the correct torque, and check the spare's pressure, so you leave with a safe wheel and a clear and simple next step. We also tell you how soon you should replace the damaged tire.
Spare Tire Installation
Not every vehicle carries a usable spare, and many compact spares limit your speed. We mount your spare correctly, explain its speed and distance limits, and tell you how soon you should visit a tire shop. If your vehicle has no spare, we tow it to a shop instead.
Tire Inflation
A slow leak or cold-weather pressure drop can make a tire look fine until it fails. We inflate your tire to the pressure listed on your door jamb, watch for a leak, and tell you whether you can continue. If the tire loses air again, we recommend a tow.
Puncture Assessment
A nail in the tread does not always mean a new tire. We inspect the puncture, check the sidewall and tread, and tell you plainly whether a patch works, or you need a replacement before you go any farther. You then decide with the facts in front of you.
Damaged Wheel Recovery
A bent rim or a shredded tire makes your vehicle unsafe on the road. We load it onto a flatbed so the damaged wheel never touches the pavement, and deliver it to the tire shop or garage you choose. You ride along or follow behind us if you prefer.
Tire Swap Service
Ottawa drivers switch to winter tires each fall and back to summer tires each spring. We come to your home or workplace, swap your wheels, tighten every lug nut to specification, and check each tire’s air pressure, so you skip the shop queue and leave with a safe set.
Low-Pressure Warning Response
When your tire pressure light comes on, do not ignore it. We check all four tires and your spare on location, find the one that has lost air, and decide with you whether to inflate, repair, or tow your vehicle. Early action often saves the tire and your wallet.
Mobile Tire Installation
A tire that is worn, cut, or beyond repair needs replacing, and a trip to the shop takes hours out of your day. We bring the new tire to your home, workplace, or roadside, mount it, and tighten every lug nut to specification. You approve the tire and price.
Auto Wrecker Service
Ontario Towing’s auto wrecker service removes vehicles that have reached the end of the road. Whether your car is scrapped, wrecked, or abandoned on your property, our wrecker loads it safely and hauls it away. Our operators handle the equipment, the pickup, and the paperwork guidance, so you reclaim your driveway, lot, or garage with one call and no second trip.
Scrap Vehicle Services
A vehicle that no longer runs, fails a safety inspection, or costs more to fix than it is worth still holds value as scrap. We arrive with a flatbed or wrecker, load the vehicle from your driveway, garage, or lot, and haul it away. We also explain the ownership paperwork you must complete, so the handover is clean and simple.
Abandoned Vehicle Removal
An abandoned vehicle on your property creates a safety and liability problem that grows worse each week. We remove it from private lots, driveways, and parking areas with the right equipment for its condition, size, and location. Property managers, landlords, and homeowners across Ottawa call us for this, and we confirm the paperwork you need before we tow it away.
Junk Car Removal Service
An old vehicle that no longer runs takes up space, collects rust, and adds stress to your day. Our junk car removal service takes it away quickly. We arrive with the right truck, load your vehicle safely, and remove it from your driveway, garage, or lot. You choose a pickup time that fits your schedule, and we handle all the heavy work from there, start to finish.
We haul away unwanted vehicles from your property anywhere in Ottawa. Running or not, wrecked or rusted, we remove your vehicle from wherever it sits. Our operators use a flatbed or wheel lift for vehicles with flat tires or locked wheels, and a winch for tight spots. We also guide you through the ownership paperwork, so you complete the handover the first time. You see the pickup details in writing before we load.
Emergency Locksmith Service
Your keys sit on the seat, the door stays locked, and your plans stall. Our emergency locksmith service opens your vehicle quickly and carefully, day or night, in any Ottawa weather. We bring the right tools, protect your paint and weather seals, and get you back inside without damage. You call us, we arrive, and you leave with your keys.
Car Lockout Service
When you lock your keys in the car, call us, and we arrive with professional entry tools. We open the door and leave the paint and lock fully undamaged, and we check that everything works before you leave. If a child or a pet is inside, call 911 first.
Keys Locked in the Trunk
A locked trunk can trap your keys, your phone, and your plans. Our operator opens the trunk or the cabin, whichever route protects your vehicle best, and retrieves your keys. You then leave without a broken latch, a damaged seal, or a repair bill. Most lockouts take only minutes.
Broken Key Removal
A key that snaps off in the ignition or door lock leaves you stuck. We extract the broken piece with specialized tools and steady hands, check the lock for any damage, and tell you what to do next, including whether a replacement key or a lock repair makes sense.
Frozen Lock Release
Ottawa's freezing rain and deep cold can seal a door lock shut. We thaw the lock, open your vehicle, never force the handle, and suggest simple ways to prevent frozen doors for the rest of the winter. We bring the right tools to free the lock without damage.

Call (613) 619-4545Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer 24/7 towing in Ottawa?
Yes. Our 24-hour towing service in Ottawa runs every day of the year, including holidays and overnight hours. Call at any time, and our dispatcher confirms your location, sends the closest truck, and tells you what to expect before it arrives.
How much does a tow cost in Ottawa?
Your cost depends on the distance, your vehicle type, the time of day, and the truck you need. Ontario law requires every operator to show the maximum rate in writing before the tow starts, so you approve the price before we hook up.
How fast can you get here?
Arrival time depends on your location, traffic, and weather. Our GPS dispatch sends the closest available truck, and the dispatcher gives you an honest estimate during your call, so you know when to expect us. Keep your phone close, and we update you.
What should I do when my car breaks down?
Pull onto the shoulder, switch on your hazard lights, and raise the hood. Stay in your vehicle with your seatbelt on if you are on a highway. Call 911 if anyone is hurt, then call us with your exact location.
Are you insurance approved?
Yes. Insurers accept our accident recovery work, and we carry full insurance of our own. Call your insurer first if you want, then tell us where to take your vehicle. You choose the shop, not us. We never push you toward a particular garage.
Do I have to sign anything before you tow my vehicle?
Yes. Ontario law requires a signed Consent to Tow form before any tow begins. The form lists the rate, the destination, and the operator's details. Read it carefully, ask us any questions, and sign only after you understand the full cost.
Can you handle commercial towing and heavy vehicles?
Yes. Our heavy-duty wrecker and flatbeds move work vans, trucks, buses, and fleet vehicles. Commercial towing needs the right equipment for the vehicle's weight, so tell us the make, model, and load when you call, and we send the right truck.
Can I choose where you tow my vehicle?
Yes. Unless police direct the tow, you decide where your vehicle goes. Choose your home, a trusted garage, or a collision repair centre. Tell us the exact address, and we take it straight there without pushing you toward a different shop.
