Read the guide
Engine quit on the I-94 grade east of town? Slid off a gravel section road out toward South Heart? Keys shut inside the truck at the Prairie Hills lot? A Dickinson wrecker is closer than you think — we run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and a real dispatcher picks up, never a recording.
Three steps is all it takes — we handle the rest.
Ring (615) 241-0232. A dispatcher who knows Stark County picks up — no phone tree, no callback queue. Give us an exit number, a mile marker, or a cross street, and tell us what the vehicle is doing.
We send whichever rig fits the job — roll-back flatbed or wheel-lift — straight to your spot, whether that's a downtown Dickinson lot or a county road out past Gladstone. You hear the price before the hook ever goes on.
Your vehicle rides safely to the shop, the dealership, or your own driveway — you pick the drop. The number we quoted on the phone is the number you pay, with nothing tacked on at the end.
From flatbed towing to fuel delivery, we cover it all across Stark County — and we bring the right equipment for every job.
Roll-back flatbed hauling that keeps all four tires off the pavement — the right call for AWD and 4x4 pickups, lowered cars, dealer trades, and bikes anywhere in Stark County.
Flatbed Towing →Quick wheel-lift hookups for everyday front- and rear-drive cars — a tight, no-fuss option when you just need to clear the lane and get rolling again around Dickinson.
Wheel-Lift Towing →Keys shut inside at the grocery lot or out on the I-94 shoulder? We pop the door and hand you back the wheel — no locksmith upcharge, no standing around in the wind.
Lockout Service →Flat tire, drained battery, a temp gauge creeping into the red — we roll out to you across Stark County and sort it right there on the shoulder so the trip keeps going.
Roadside Assistance →Tank hit empty between exits on I-94 or on a lonely section road? We bring enough fuel to reach the next pump — no tow bill for a couple gallons of gas.
Fuel Delivery →Dropped a wheel in the ditch, buried in spring mud, or nosed off the shoulder out by Richardton? Our winch and recovery gear drags you back onto solid ground, in town or on the prairie.
Winch-Out & Recovery →Wreck cleanup, a car stalled in a live lane, a breakdown on a dark stretch of ND-22 — we roll a truck the moment you call, whatever the hour.
Emergency Towing →A no-start in a cold Dickinson parking lot is usually the battery. We show up with a heavy-duty pack, fire it over, and check the charge before pulling away.
Jump Start Service →Bikes ride flat only — chocked at the front wheel and cinched with soft straps, never chains — so your motorcycle reaches the shop exactly how it left.
Motorcycle Towing →Call a 1-800 towing line and you reach a call center three states away. Call us and you reach a truck based right here in Dickinson — a crew that has run the I-94 corridor in a January whiteout, knows which section roads drift shut first, and can find the field approach you slid off of without a second phone call.
"Caught a blowout on the interstate just east of the Belfield exit right at dusk. Called, and a flatbed rolled up inside half an hour. The driver swapped my spare in the wind without a word of complaint and didn't gouge me on the bill. Saved my whole evening."
"My car wouldn't turn over in the lot after work in Gladstone. These folks were there quick, jumped it, then actually tested the alternator to make sure I'd make it home. Honest and fast — I've already handed the number to my sister."
"Needed my pickup hauled from Richardton clear into a shop in Dickinson. They gave me one flat rate up front, no meter ticking, and kept me posted the whole drive. Truck showed up without a single new mark on it."
"Ran the tank dry on I-94 coming back from Dickinson, stranded on the shoulder past South Heart in the dark. They brought gas straight to me and stayed until the engine caught. Can't thank them enough."
"Transmission let go on ND-22 heading up from New England. A roll-back came out, winched the truck on nice and easy, and hauled it to my mechanic. Fair, calm, and they knew exactly where I meant when I said the second bridge."
"Broke down near the Medora exit on the way back from the national park. Figured I'd wait forever being that far out — they still had a truck to me quicker than expected and treated my SUV like it was their own. Straight shooters on the price, too."
