Was driving down JFK Blvd between 13 and 12 street on 4/4/24 around 9pm and this driver was speeding all down JFK driving very close to me high beeming to go faster when I was already going about 30. Almost hit a car cause he was speeding after he passed me. Don’t be a jerk trying to intimidate people driving close and blinding them with high beems.

I would give this company a huge NEGATIVE FIVE stars if I could. They hire the most unprofessional drivers. At approximately 8:15 pm tonight, one of their drivers aggressively and dangerously cut me off going up the ramp off of exit 15E going towards Jersey City. If I didn't move to the right as I saw him speeding right through the tolls (supposed to be at 15mph) coming towards me, he would have definitely crashed into my car causing severe damages. As we passed him going into 2 lanes towards the Kearny area, he decided to flip me off for honking my horn at his dangerous maneuvers. Then as we reached the red light right before the bridge, he flipped me off again as if I was the one at fault for his impatience and incompetence. This company needs to hire professional drivers who properly represent their name because that driver was doing that in their tow truck which he probably doesn't even own and would expect the company to pay for all those possible expenses in damages and he would not have cared. Terrible! If that's who represents your company and you allow it, I would never recommend anyone to use this company for our businesses or personal use. I have a video of the entire incident and I recorded the driver flipping me off (2x) and the whole vehicle. I am reporting the driver and this company to the Police. Thank goodness I was able to avoid his bad driving and I made it home safe. It could have ended differently with people like him behind the wheel. Unfortunate, sad and just plain old pathetic. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! THUMBS DOWN!!!!

This place is absolutely doing illegal dealings! I am HOMELESS and they impounded my car with my animals in it! They did not check the vehicle to see if anyone or an animal was inside. Had my cats died I would have had a really strong case to shut this place down. But mark my words anything I can do now to bring this place down I am going to do. They told me one price the day it was impounded and what it would be the following day. Went back the following day and they boosted the price by almost 20 dollars more. This is a tactic to try and keep the vehicle. The “ugly bald guy” told us that he can take the money for the impound and hold on to it and then said if you can’t get the tow truck I can’t give it back? These people try to keep your car! They did not care that I live in my vehicle and have nowhere to go. I can’t believe that this city has a contract with these criminals. They are unprofessional! The “ugly bald guy” handed me a paper to sign for the release and as I handed it back through the window he snatched it out of my hand. As we were getting the car towed, they were peering in and laughing as if they took something or just laughing at my situation. Which I could die. On top of that, everyone that works there looks illegal and doesn’t even have a certification for their job. I know this because my boyfriend asked them for a job just to see and he has his cert. from ford. They claimed he was over qualified aka LEGITIMATE! This isn’t over and I will absolutely promise that I will get people to listen and look into this company. You can’t get away with illegal dealings if you are attached by contract to the city government and not get audited. They messed with the right one this time because I hold people accountable to the ugly things they try to hide. I will tell my story to anyone who will listen and enough noise will start to gain traction in the right places to take this place down. I had the last laugh though because guess what YOU DIDN’T GET MY CAR! In fact, I was laughing with my head out of the tow trucks window all the way out of their hole on the wall establishment.

Three weeks ago I had to call Triple A for my car to be towed . My tire went flat while I was driving. It turned out that my Civic SI did not come with a spare tire. The driver that was dispatched , his name was Ezza , was very professional and knowledgeable. . It was 2 am in the morning and I was stranded by a gas station and having tow driver that handled himself professionally, made the whole experience less scary. He was great. We want to send him a charka bracelet so that he can have positivity just like the positive experience that I had. I highly recommend King towing to anyone that needs assistance on the road.

Thieves who towed my car in a matter of minutes… while I was literally shopping at shoprite and worse ShopRite was least helpful in this matter. All I did was ask for the procedure to release my car… and the bald spectacled guy started yelling that I was giving his employee a hard time. He continued to yell and make a scene the entire time that he was doing me a favor by releasing my car on a Saturday… the yelling and physical demeanor was so scary that I was worried i could have been in physical harm! These crooks ruined my entire day and got me traumatized!

Arranged a tow service through AAA and King Towing was given the wrong contact number. Thankfully the service provider from King Towing was patient enough to wait. The tow was much appreciated and my car was transported safely to its destination. ⭐️⭐️

I was parked in the ShopRite lot literally shopping in the ShopRite when they towed my car…15 minutes after I’d parked it. Then, they wouldn’t release the car to me because my husband’s name (same last name, same address, both listed on the insurance) was on the registration, not mine. They’d only give me the car if I paid in cash. A rip-off all the way around.

Parked in the Shop Rite , going to the ATM and then to buy food In less than 20 minutes, the car wasn't there. Once in the place is like the 3rd world. Never thought this could exist in Jersey City

Parked my car for 5 minutes in the Shoprite/BJs lot when I had to run to the store, and these crooks just towed my car. When I got to their office on Tyson Lane, the ugly bald guy with glasses (who kept on munching on Doritios the entire time I was there - it was disgusting) there who called himself the manager of that place was so rude, it was hard to believe such disgusting people are allowed to exist. He didn't listen or tried to listen to what I had to say. What's the point of parking in the Shoprite/BJs lot when your car gets towed when you're in those exact stores??? These guys are crooks, thieves, and the most pathetic people I have ever seen. That ugly bald guy with glasses deserves to be without a job. I wish that happens one day. He ruined my entire day, and week.

This place is a scam. If you park by BJ’s/shoprite be careful because they have tow trucks waiting to tow cars at random. I was a customer at BJ’s and they said that management called my car in. Within the five minutes of being inside BJ’s? And I’m a BJs customer? The math doesn’t math here. You can’t do anything about it with the police because they are the tow company for the police It’s really really sketchy and dirty buisness.

I was rightfully towed by this company in early February 2022. Upon retrieving my vehicle, I noticed the rubber trim in the driver's side window was hanging from the top of the door. Additionally, the interior of my vehicle was covered in dirt matching the handprint on the window. The owner or manager that answers the phone confirmed that this company broke into my vehicle in order to disengage the parking brake. However, I noticed this same dirt all over the vehicle - including areas nowhere near the parking brake. I had to pay hundreds of dollars to repair the trim and get the interior detailed in order to get the dirt out.

So my car just dies out of nowhere while I'm driving along. AAA sent Wilfredo out to me with a flatbed. First, he was there within minutes, which is the fastest I've ever had a AAA driver show up. He drove my car and I all the way back to PA! Was friendly and professional. He took great care of my car even though it's a complete beater. He let me ride through the toll on his EZ-Pass even though I had no cash on me! Then, we get to my buddy's shop, and it's in this tight little alleyway which I know tow truck drivers hate because it's real tricky to get in and out of, dude just sent it, full confidence in his trusty steed. It was sick. If you use these guys, definitely ask for Wilfredo. He's good. Chill guy too. Thanks King's!

I just narrowly avoided having my car towed by these crooks. I parked my car for only 2 minutes, to stop at BJ’s. I work in the area and the lot I parked in is public to employees who work in the building. However Once I got out of my car, the tow truck driver was aggressively telling me he had to tow my car for parking illegally, when I was not illegally parked, and I was only there for barely TWO MINUTES. He then tried to tell me it was timed, and tried to give me excuses as to why he was towing me, when I didn’t park illegally as I work in the area.Then I told him I was leaving to which the driver tried to block my way, to prevent me from going to my car, and I told him this is harassment to which he replied he would not allow me to drive away. I told him this is my property, and I would never park in this parking lot again, to which the driver callously said “Good job buddy” I have never been so appalled at the level of hyper aggression and callous disrespect from King’s Towing and for customers and for people of Jersey City. Please be cautious and aware of where you park in Jersey City and steer clear and drive away if you see any of these trucks. Their reputation speaks for itself as they have been sued many times. Do not ever do business with these crooks , and never ever give these people your money, I am at a complete loss, and I hope this place goes out of business, as I am now afraid to park anywhere at all in Jersey City because of these crooks.

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS: If I could give this 0 stars I would. Nothing these people said makes sense. They couldn’t tell me why the car was towed. Told me i was not allowed to call AAA to the lot as we are parked next to a AAA car. Then they told us we couldn’t drive off the lot and we had to call a different towing company to tow the car 25 feet off the lot so we could leave because they also wouldn’t tow it off the lot. A classic tale of New Jersey robbery and tow companies and police in cahoots.

They use car GPS instead of truck GPS to charge clients. This is wrong to do this to clients. How a truck route is 15 mls but using a car it's 32mls. Thats horrible. How do you charge someone for miles not even taken. A truck route is different than a car route. Don't use this company. Save yourself the headache.

A bunch of crooks. I got towed from the ShopRite metro plaza after running across the street and then heading into the store. Since they saw me run to drop something first I got screwed. They then told me i have to pay cash since im not the owner to retrieve my car. Illegal.

Generally very unprofessional staff who are in rush-mode, and do not take the time or care to tow a vehicle properly. Incapable of towing a FWD car with the emergency brake on without skipping all the wheels and tripping every sensor in the car. I drove with a check-engine light on and "ABS Malfunction" alert for a week before it went off. I also Uber'd to the location and they were sort of scolding the Uber to not pull up the driveway - overall, very rude and poor experience dealing with them.

This disgusting, terrible and illegal company is running a robbery business! They towed your car without reason - I parked my car in metro plaza parking lot and went into Shoprite to buy something. However it towed away the car illegally within 10mins from I parked the car! Horrible and ridiculous!! We are the customers and they towed the car! When we argued with the company, they said they were instigated by the guys from metro plaza - without ensuring the identity of the "guy" and the situation whether or not my car is supposed to be towed. The people there were really bad and rude, charged you a huge amount of money, including punishments, storage, taxes and etc. even if our car was not stored there at all! I would say this is completely illegal and disgusting. They don't right to do that! Let's say, if this keeps happening, and one day, I pretend I were that metro plaza "property owner" and I call this company "Come and tow away this car". Then I would expect the ridiculous thing happens. Please report this company! Note：please pay attention to the red BMW: Y61NBM

These people steal your car and make you pay money for your car back while simultaneously calling it a business. They made me pay about $180 for my car back and they didn't even give me a receipt. You can't even pay with a credit or debit card. They make you pay in cash. Real professional. Can't imagine going to sleep at night knowing that I ruined the day of possibly tens of people.
