Have used Larry's towing several.times over the years and they have always been great.I recently ran into a situation where I needed my car towed a short distance from home. Larry's towing was nice enough to help us out of the kindness of their hearts. Wonderful people, great service, highly recommend them! Thank you Larry's Towing!!!

Larry’s Towing was a lifesaver! My daughter, who is away at college in Carbondale, locked her keys in her car. Since we don’t live in the area, it was such a relief to find someone local who could get to her quickly. They showed up right away, treated her kindly, and got her back on the road in no time. The price was very reasonable. They didn’t try to overcharge or take advantage of the situation. We’re so grateful for their honest, fast, and reliable service!

Larry’s Towing was truly EXCEPTIONAL. Very speedy service when someone ran a red light and totaled my car while I was in town. When I had to go pick up my belongings, Tyler was exceptionally kind and the rest of the gentlemen in the office were kind as well. My back and neck were injured badly in the accident, Tyler noticed that and even helped me retrieve the heavy items from my car out of the kindness of his heart. definitely recommend Larry’s towing! Their prices are affordable and they are very prompt.

They showed up quickly to get my wrecked car out of a 4-way intersection after someone ran their stop sign, let me know how to handle them through my insurance, and I was able to come the next day to get anything else I had out of the car before my insurance picked it up and totaled it out. Altogether a great experience from them!

I got my car stuck in a ditch at Little Grassy Lake at 1:30 in the morning. Larry's crew was able to get out there in less then 20 minutes, which was pretty impressive considering how remote it was! They towed it out super fast without a single scratch on my car! The price was also very reasonable. I will definitely call them again if my car gets stuck!

Tried to tow my car with me still inside of it. There is no sign or anything on the property about towing, I have pictures. Then started to claim that I was blocking a dumpster. The driver didn't even bother to walk around the car or nothing, just backed up and started lifting the lift. How unprofessional. Had to get his attention by starting my car. How lazy and/or desperate to get a tow is your driver....... Totally laziness and unprofessional is what it is.

Yes I would definitely give them a one-star rating or below my friend got their vehicle impounded and this towing yard is refusing to give me my prescription glasses which I have a receipt for and a valid prescription and can prove that they're mine this tow yard is such is ran by some horrible people horrible people that are willing to keep a prescription from somebody a medical prescription so if y'all want to use a towing yard I would suggest you don't use this one if you want to get your medical prescriptions and or glasses back.

I was recommended to call Larry’s after calling around for a little while. I had locked my keys in my car. Both sets. I am an idiot. The Driver arrived less than 10 minutes after I called. Reasonably priced. Saved the day.

Towing companies often get a bad rap. They perform a service and the people they’re dealing with are probably already in a stressful situation. But they are business, and they deserve to make money just like everybody else. If you are respectful of them, they will be respectful of you. Compensation is fair. And in this situation, Larry’s performed in a manner that I would say is above and beyond. Courteous, kind, even in cold weather on a busy highway. To say I’m impressed would be a gross understatement. Kudos to them

SCAMMERS!!! Policy is, after 24hrs then they charge you a $50 admin fee for filling out paperwork. Well, my car was picked up yesterday around 4-5 something in the afternoon. I go to pick it up today expecting to pay $95 ($75 for the tow fee and 20 for the day that it was stored) but they tell me it's $125 because they decided to fill out paperwork early just so they can get extra money!! It has not been 24hrs! I still have three to four hours left from the 24hr mark. WHY AM I BEING CHARGED AN ADMIN FEE??

Fast and friendly service. Reasonable fees. Great staff! Wouldn’t recommend anyone else!!!

Jeff was fantastic -- got my locked car which was out in the country (about 8 minutes from the arena) open really quickly with no damage to the window. I was impressed that he was here in less than 15 minutes. Thanks!

I called Larry's Towing on Friday and was told they were too busy to get to me that day. He said they could do it Saturday. Called Saturday he said not right now, I'll call you in an hour. Never called so I called him back. He said they only had one truck and couldn't get to me right now,. He said he would call me Sunday morning and let me know when they were on there way. He never called! I called Shelton's Towing and 20 minutes later my car was being towed to the repair shop. Call Shelton's if you want fast reasonably priced service!!!

Larry's was there when I needed them most. Boost jumped my car so I could get to my job interview on time. Thanks Larry's!

Was told it would be several hours. After 2.75 hours called and was told they couldn’t bring a truck out. We are 10 minutes from Carbondale. He had no excuse when I asked him why he didn’t call me to let me know.

After locking my keys in my car at the wash, I was extremely worried about how I’d get back in. After calling CPD, one of the Recovery Towers was nearly immediately on his way. His service was quick and timely and even let me off with a warning (this time). I’d highly recommend this service if you like to get back to life as fast as possible. Thanks Larry’s!

Larry's crew arrived within 15 minutes of calling. My van's front right tire had the broken coil spring resting on it, making the tire immobile. They pulled the van out of the driveway backwards then re-hooked. We were on the way to Dave's Auto quickly. Well Done.

If they get a vehicle impounded, they make up so many fees, you can't afford to get it back. Clean up fees. Winch fee, tow fees, check on lien fees.... Most places will work with a Dealership, cause they know we are going to loose money if they get a vehicle towed in and we are the lien holder.. They Don't...
