What clients say about Akins Towing and Recovery LLC in Villa Ridge (MO)
Tow truck tailgating us at 10:50pm Saturday Aug 9th on 64 east. Would appreciate more safe and courteous driving from a wrecker who knows the consequences of such reckless driving.
I could not recommend a better company for your towing/moving needs! Not only did he do this is in the pouring rain, without much notice, but he saved our tiny house! He wasn't sure if he had the right equipment but he pushed himself and his equipment to help us out! Selflessly he (the owner) helped us more than he could ever know!!! 5 🌟 for sure!
Great customer service. Arrived only minutes after I called for a tow. I was loaded and unloaded very quickly. Driver was very personable, and even gave me a ride home!
Outstanding service, I had a flat on my rental and no jack, they drove out over an hour away and fixed the issue in a heartbeat!
I can only recommend this company
Huge thank you for Akins towing for picking my vehicle up in Washington, MO and taking it to the shop on an early Saturday morning. Told them no rush but they came in less than 10 minutes to help!
Will use this company again.
Really appreciate the outstanding service. (AAA had me waiting for almost two hours until they finally called Mr. Akin.) He called me and assured me he was on his way and was quick and careful in loading my husband's corvette. It was a huge relief to get the car home and he put it in the garage as well. He's a hard working business man who is good at his job. I would use Akin Towing again without hesitation.
This company was great to work with, responsive and prompt. They addressed all of my needs for getting the old square body where she needed to go! I'll highly recommend them in the future.
This is a small towing company but very much accommodating to my needs! Very personable and easy to work with! I believe the mans name is Rob and he was awesome!
My husband and I would have been killed by one of your tow truck drivers a few minutes ago on 35-N, while he had a customers car hooked up on it. He jerked his truck over into our lane, very abruptly, with no turn signaI, no warning and most of all, no space. Glad we're great defensive drivers. I have a picture of the truck and car it was hauling if you are interested in reminding your driver on proper driving skills.
It’s never a super awesome time when you have to get a tow, but Akins took away some of the pain. Ronnie showed up quickly and was very nice, efficient and helpful. Akins is much better than Patriot.
Definitely one of the better towing company’s out there! Super friendly and provides reliable service! Got me out of a jam on Halloween allowing me to spend Halloween with my daughter definitely will use their service again if I need them!
5 stars: Atkins Towing went above and beyond!
I needed to have my 30-foot travel trailer towed up a steep and windy gravel road. I called several different towing companies, but Atkins was the only one who was willing to do the job.
Atkins arrived on time and were professional, friendly, and efficient. They quickly assessed the situation and got to work. The job was done quickly and without any damage to my trailer.
I was particularly impressed with how careful Atkins was with my trailer. They took the time to secure it properly and they were very careful not to damage it while towing it up the steep and windy road.
The pricing was very reasonable and competitive. I would definitely recommend Atkins Towing to anyone who needs towing services.
My driver, the owner, I can’t remember his name was awesome! Treated me with nothing but respect! I will definitely use this towing company again if I need it!
Can't say enough good things about my experience with Atkins Towing. Very fast response, professional and excellent customer service. They even texted me a picture to show the vehicle was delivered which was above and beyond what I expected.
While traveling back home my vehicle broke down 4 hours out. I called and spoke with Jodi and explained my situation; I was 4 hours away from home, insurance company didn’t find a tow place yet and was waiting for 2 hours already. She said she could get someone out to tow me right away, also recommended a local mechanic who was her friend that would be able to help me look at my car tonight (on a Sunday night and after they were closed). Then said she would have the tow truck driver drop us off at a motel if we couldn’t fix my car tonight. Even said that she would be able to give me a ride back to the mechanic shop in the morning if needed. Jody was a rockstar!!! Atkin’s towing was very professional and helpful for an out of Towner who was stuck! Highly recommend using their services!!
Very pleasant to deal with. He showed up to tow a Hummer for me and that job I had to cancel because the shop was not ready to receive it. He was very understanding and set up a time to come back the following week at the shop’s request. Now he’s hauling a Tractor for me instead. Great folks, really know how to help a guy out.
Extremely helpful, they went above and beyond for us. They got to us within 10 mins of calling. Nobody wants to need a tow truck, but when/if we do I will definitely use them again.
Akins is fast and friendly. Our family had a blowout on 44 and Akins came to the rescue in a matter of minutes. Akins also goes the extra mile and has that old fashioned courtesy and politeness about them. My family would recommend Akins anyday!!!
Akins Towing (Ronnie specifically) was absolutely phenomenal. I had to drive 16 hours and hit something on the highway within the first 3. Akins Towing was quickly responsive, reached me on the side of the highway immediately, and not only offered a tow to the nearest tire shop, but contacted them before even reaching me to ensure they had the appropriate tire for my car. After observing my car, Ronnie noticed that I was in need of a new wheel, in which he gave me options and contacted numerous dealers, shops, and salvage yards nearby. The closest dealers reported that I would not have a new wheel until two days later, but Ronnie was able to find me one the day of, in which I had my car towed, repaired, and I was back on the road within a few hours. Akins Towing not only went ABOVE AND BEYOND to help me (a young female stuck on the side of the road), but made sure that I was safe and that my options were affordable. I could not say enough good things about them. I definitely contacted the right towing service. As my father put it when he was hundreds of miles away and unable to help me in this situation, "Thank God there are still good people out there." Thank you, Akins Towing!
There's a review that I didn't post about this company. Apparently I gave a 1 🌟 rating. Incorrect 5 stars. Now on the other hand one star gos to big boys towing.9000$ towing my RV with me inside it with out my permission.iv lost my home to these crooked people.Akins stick around we need a more for the people kinda towe com.
Great company to work with was in a pinch my rearend went out had a new one and I called Ronnie and them up at Akins and he was able to come lift the rear of my truck up of the rearend so I could roll the old out and roll the new one in. Like always they go above and beyond will continue to using Akins towing for all my future tows or lifts
My experience was great. I was stranded in my driveway and needed a tow. The driver was there within 20 min, and was able to get my car out and help me get out of my street. Thank you for saving the day!
My truck and driver were stranded with an electrical issue out in Missouri and I was frantically calling around to find someone that could haul both truck and trailer without costing me an arm and a leg. Jody was awesome. She was so kind and helpful and took the time to call around to find out who could get the job done. I was just so impressed with her honesty, transparency, and willingness to go the extra mile. I wouldn't hesitate to call Akins again and you shouldn't either.
I would like to thank the dispatcher, and Mark for the outstanding job. Mark did not only tell me exactly when he would arrive he was early. He was very professional, and friendly with a good attitude. He wasnt all grumpy like alot of people. He was quick an safe while hooking up and towing my vehicle, i couldnt believe how easy he made it look like it was nothing. I will definitely call them again. Thank you again for your help!
It’s was 2am. And my car broke down on the side of the road. I called Akins towing and they answered on the 2nd ring and had a tow truck to me in 35 minutes. Thank you Akins Towing! You all are the best. 10/10 recommend
