They came out quickly after contacting them to tow our boat home for us after a trailer tire blew out. We were on the side of the Seward highway so they sent an extra truck to help with lights/visibility, it cost a little extra but was worth it as it definitely helped make the process feel more safe with other cars blasting by! The price was fair and they did a good job. We had talked to another company our insurance wanted us to use but they went back and forth hemming and hawing about what tow truck to send and then quoted us 3x as much! Vulcan asked for the trailer/boat measurements and was on their way, no mess no fuss.

Vulcan Towing is top-notch! These guys always answer the phone promptly, and their drivers are quick to respond. They prioritize safety every step of the way, which gives me great peace of mind. Whether it’s a quick tow or a more complicated situation, I know I can count on them to get the job done right. Highly recommend!

I’ve only used Vulcan through my AAA service, and for how frustrating AAA communications are, Vulcan is always a relief to finally get on the phone with. I’ve had multiple tows this year and their office staff, battery team, and towing crew (shout out to my repeat tow-master Scott) are all positive, communicative, reassuring, and helpful. Three cheers for Vulcan! Thanks for keeping me sane this summer with my nightmare of car problems.

Eric was very efficient and fast, kept it professional. Vulcan taking before and after pictures is nice for our safety. For any super Heavy/ heavy hauls 10/10 would recommend them!

All of the employees, from the office staff to the tow truck drivers, are wonderful people!! I was helping a family member get their car out of impound. A not so good thing to have to go through. There was no judgment passed on me, they talked me through the process, and treated me very well. Even cracked a few jokes to break the ice. The people who worked with me took a not so pleasant experience and made it a very bearable experience. I appreciate them taking the time to answer all of my questions and explaining things to me, as well as being kind, courteous and professional.

Unfortunately, my nephew's car was seized and found its way to this facility. This operation is nothing short of a farce. If you find your vehicle here, please ensure you have everything in order: vehicle registration and insurance. They will do whatever it takes to make a profit off you. They charge a storage fee of $36 daily, and you must make an appointment to access it. They will not go to the car to collect the registration, so you must bring documents to verify ownership. It felt like they were trying to withhold the car from me. These individuals seem rather dubious.The girl employed at this place is quite abrasive, lacking in professionalism, and has a poor attitude. This is the reality of dealing with a subpar company and its employees. Therefore, ensure that you have everything set up properly.

Best trucking company in anchorage. I needed 500 cubic yards of dirt moved and they did it in 6.5 hours. They were on time and the trucks kept moving. If you need any excavation, trucking, loading etc, this is the place to call! I’ve also had them pick up loads of D1 from AS&G and they are always on it. Highly recommend.

I believe it was Emily who came out to put my spare tire on. Awesome professionalism. She arrived in decent time considering it was a Sunday. It was a quick and easy process despite a few challenges. So thankful for you guys.

Carlos, Milania, Lenil, Ambrosia and Ari made my experiance at Vulcan a smooth & pleasant one. They were patient, kind, explanatory, helpful in ALL ways, & I never expect to see the like. Vulcan hires, & promotes, superb (!!) customer service in staff. They warmed my heart, during a strenuous time ... & that's really saying something. I remain grateful. - Charity Anne Green

I felt very comfortable and safe once the tow truck arrived the driver Scott ask me a few questions about the car like if it can start or be put in neutral I told him it can start and be put in neutral then he successfully lifted the car and put it on the truck without causing further damage to the car 5 stars for the service I had a excellent experience during a very rough time thank you Scott

Nice driver. I ended up not needing a tow. They said they would refund $20 of my $157 that I was forced to prepay. Then they charged me a refund fee! I got less than $20 back. I'm not happy. I will likely never call them again.

Emily helped us move a Conex today. It was a little tight getting it onto the site. Emily did an excellent job setting it down perfectly. All while being very professional. I'm very grateful that Emily was the operator. Thank you

Requested service around noon got here at 3. Not a big deal but they sent someone with a tow truck and no tools and didn’t know how to change a tire. I was told someone else would be here soon, no one showed up so I called back their aaa dispatcher and heard they closed the call out. Don’t recommend this company for anything. Also did capture video of their driver trying to learn how a lug wrench worked on my wife’s car.

I was hit by a drunk driver and my vehicle ended up at the Vulcan lot (totaled). The staff at Vulcan were very helpful, from the tow driver to the office staff to the yard staff. They were able to provide me with the information I needed and helped me get access to my vehicle to gather my items. In a very stressful time, Vulcan managed to not add to my stress level. I greatly appreciate their focus on service.

I sold a truck on May 1st, the balance of which was to be paid within 2 weeks. On May 27th, the truck was impounded and placed into police evidence, then sent to vulcan towing on June 6th, unbeknownst to me. I found out it had been towed on around July 20th,but I could not ever get anyone to Call me back from.poloce evidence Nor could I get a return call from the officer who had it towed. His boss is the one who ultimately called me back. The title was not transferred so it was still in my name. For 46days, it cost $1950. That's more than many live humans pay for rent. $1950 to sit in one spot...not consuming energy or water....just sitting In a small area of the yard. Think of this: if this were a 1000sqft house- how many vehicles could fit In that space? If 70 vehicles fit. That would bring in approx. $91,000 every 30 days. And their yard is huge....so much bigger than my example. Even with the overhead.... they are ripping off their customers like ive rarely seen! And many times, when people get their vehicles back, things are missing items out of them. Why is this being allowed? I had to pay $1950 since I was still the titled owner....despite not being notified that the truck was there (they said they left a message, but I didn't have a voice mail from them). They told me if I didn't pick it up, it would be suctioned in another month, and if it was sold for less than the bill AT THAT TIME, I would be sued for the difference! It was at this point that I told them they wouldn't be getting 1 red cent out of me!! But....I ended up paying to get it out and will re-sell it. This, is probably why I never got another payment from the first person I sold it to! There was drug paraphernalia in the truck... which was probably why that person didn't wanna ask me for my help. Come on, Vulcan towing! You are getting rich on the backs of your consumers! Disgusted.

Helpful professional. By appointnent only. Excellent staff inside and out. Takes the stress and pressure off. When your concerned about your property. They will help. They were all wearing a smile. Go online and see what you need to bring. So you dont have to delay. Every day they store it costs $30 split into 12 hr charges of $15. Its going to add up quick. Auctions look promising. Cherrs! Peace.

What a great company to help us when my vehicle broke down and we needed a tow from Moose Pass to Anchorage. Rusty was a fabulous driver and made us laugh even when having a very bad day. I highly recommend this service!

Super easy to work with and reasonable pricing. Great customer service and gave us an honest quote before doing the towing. They were also half the time to wait than other tow companies in town, quick repose time.

First off, I’ve NEVER had a car die out on me until I was in for a rude awakening one friday afternoon during 5PM traffic.. Thankfully my brother in law recommended Vulcan Towing! I called and had the option of paying over the phone or waiting until they came and towed my car. Within 10-15 minutes Quyntyn and was very helpful and did his job like a pro! I like that he took pictures of the car before he started loading it as well. So thankful for the Vulcan Towing & Recovery crew, I highly recommend them as they are professional and get their job done quickly and efficiently!

Emily Arnold has done so much work for Midas of Alaska. She is an exceptional driver and always goes above and beyond for 8100 Old Seward Hwy. I highly recommend her for any of your towing needs.
