Tom "the Tow Truck Driver" saved our butts after 4 hours of trying to work with Triple AAA and other local companies. Not only did he go out of his way to save my family of 5 that were stuck on the side of the highway at midnight, he did it with a smile! It was Christmas Eve and he was our very own holiday miracle.
Tom is very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He hauled my granddaughter’s car to his yard from the accident scene, after she was rear ended by a much larger vehicle.
Unprofessional and shady. Wouldn't take my car where I wanted to go so my insurance had to take it from them. Kept trying to tell me my car was being salvaged when it wasn't.
Tom is a great man. Met him yesterday due to mistake I had made. However, I’m not glad I got stuck but I am glad to have met up with him. He restored my faith in the fact that there are still a lot of good people out there. After speaking with him I found he’s a man of great morals and is a big supporter or non profit organizations. Don’t hesitate to contact them, you’ll be glad you did.
Family owned and operated over 70 years.. one of my drivers was broke down at 2:00 in the morning he gladly came out Toad the truck and RV to his shop and then took the driver to a hotel.. Thank you again Rating: A+++
There is no better nor more caring tow company out there. The owner of the company took a full hour picking up my dads completely totaled car, and all of his belongings from the snow that had been scattered in the crash. He helped me load my car, and even reached out afterwards to make sure my dad was ok. They deserve a metal for their care and customer service. Thank you, Tom!
A belt in my car broke while I was on I80, on the way to catch a flight. The mechanic picked me up with a tow truck and got the repair done in time for me to catch my flight. I cannot express how grateful I am.
Emigh's towing is a down right crook tows a vehicle 6 miles and charges $850. His reasoning is and I quote "Well the state police called him to tow the vehicle so I have to charge for that" He also stated it was in a ditch which it was not in a ditch. He was also completely rude on the phone and very unprofessional and vulgar. Highly suggest to use someone else for any towing needs.
We had our company van towed after an accident. The police called this company not us. The bill for a 6 mile tow was $850. This vehicle was not in a ditch or any special circumstance and was right on the edge of the road. We contacted local tow companies in our area and the average accident tow is $250. This company KNEW they were ripping us off.
I was dirving through central PA on I-80 when my van broke down. I called AAA for help and they said that my family couldn't ride in a tow truck due to COVID and there was no easy way for us to travel with my van to a repair shop. I connected with Tom from Emigh's Towing & Recovery and he went to AutoZone, purchased the necessary parts (pulley and belt) and delivered them to me. We were able to repair my van in the median of I-80 and I was on my way again. I really appreciate his trust and willingness to help. It spared us from having to spend a day of our vacation at a repair shop.
A horrible problem three hours into a 12 hour road trip was made unbelievably better by the awesome people at Emigh’s Towing!!! The great guy was on time and very helpful getting my van towed to another great group of people who had me back on the road faster than I thought possible!!! Emigh’s really helped turn my horrible experience into a great day!!!
I had an incident on I-80 during a freezing rain and had to use Emighs services to tow my vehicle. They were very professional and helpful and advised (correctly) that my vehicle was non driveable. I was able to gain access to my vehicle later that day to retrieve the rest of my personal belongings too which was nice since I do not live in that area. I spoke with Tom there and he made sure the arrangements for my insurance company were in place for the appraisal. in summary, if you have the misfortune of needing a tow, Emighs has you covered.
Although our truck broke down on our way to our vacation, we never felt more at ease! He was incredibly easy to talk to, caring, and very quick to pick us up. My husband and I have never felt so lucky in an unlucky situation!
Tom was fantastic. My trailer blew out a tire on I80 and after hassling with road side assistance they finally dispatched Tom on a Sunday night. He called - said he'd be 15 minutes and he showed up exactly 15 minutes. Jacked up trailer , put on spare, inflated to correct amount and double checked lug nuts. This guy is awesome !!!! Thanks for saving us!!!
Had a tire on my fifthwheel travle trailer blowout on our way home on I80. The state police man said he would call someone to help me change it if I would like. I told him to make the call he informed that it would be about 30 minutes and some one would be there. The service person came in about 25, he helped me put the spare tire on and get me on my way quickly. The cost was very reasonable also. Thank you for your help and quick service. If I lived in the area or if In the area and need help again I would surly use Emigh's service.
One of the best towing services in the area treat u good and very nice people there highly recommend the service and quickly response to seen and took us to ge a rental car. Was a great service
Mr. Emigh was more than helpful. I got in an accident on my way to school, not familiar with the area at all, hours aways from my hometown. He was very kind and was willing to work with me. He could have abused that fact that I wasn't from the area and gave me options that would have cost me a fortune, but he didn't. At first I didn't know/couldn't remember what coverage I had on my vehicle, and he talked me through some options. Later after I filed the claim and got everything sorted out, found out I did have coverage, I called Mr. Emigh the next day and he talked me through the steps and said he could take care of everything on his end with the insurance. Which was great for me, because I am a half hour away without a car, he made things easy for me. Even if I didn't end up having the coverage, I was very delighted with his cooperation and professionalism he extended to me. Definitely would recommend his service to anyone that asks.
I had good experience with emigh towing that treated me really good they even took me to state college for a rental car and wouldn't even take anything for doing it i will tell family and friends if you ever need a tow to call emighs they treat you really good
My two sons were involved in a car crash at I80 & Rt. 970 that was not their fault. State police called Emigh's to tow the vehicles. My husband, who was at the scene, wanted it towed to our home 2 miles away. Mr. Emigh told him it was better to tow to his yard as the insurance company's tow truck would not be able to retrieve it later from our home.
When the other driver, who caused the vehicle, disputed fault, his insurance company informed me they would only pay for the towing to Emigh's and the storage for 7 days. It was day 7. Emigh charged $250 for the tow, $100 for road clean up (which the fire dept. was witnessed doing), and $30/day for storage. $560 total.
If I were to leave the totaled car at Emigh's, I would be responsible for the $30/day storage fee until the claim was settled. Or I could pay $100 to have him tow it to my home where we initially wanted it. When I argued with him that it was because of his recommendation that we take it to his place to begin with, he did not budge. He had me between a rock and a hard place and I had to pay the $100 to get the car returned.
I asked him if I had called him directly to have something towed, it would have been $150. This is a scam to overcharge insurance companies. He was ignorant and rude. If you need a tow, please be aware to find out your own facts about what insurance will cover and what it won't.
