Joe Rader Towing in
Wausaukee (WI)

First time using Radar Towing and if I need a tow again I will definitely be calling them. They were quick to respond and got my vehicle home in no time. The driver, I believe his name was Trent, was extremely professional and all around nice guy. I would recommend Radar towing and Trent to anybody who needs a tow.

Highly recommend! Driver was quick, kind, helpful and kept us and our dogs safe in a stressful situation.

We had a flat tire on our boat trailer on July 4th at high noon on I39 and it was hotter than hell. We tried calling 5 places and they were either closed or couldnt come. All of a sudden a young man named Neil from JoeRader Towing appeared and asked if we needed help. He was extremely professional and courteous. We would highly recommend this company

Cannot recommend these guys enough! Our Sprinter Van had a problem with the tire on the side of the interstate. Trent was there very quickly, loaded it up, took us to a repair shop, and then to a car rental store. He went above and beyond and we are so grateful!

Thank you for getting me out of a jam this morning when I woke up to a flat tire . Came quickly and reasonably priced I will always call this business for my car/towing needs Thanks you again !

I called Rader Towing for a lockout over Christmas weekend. They prioritized my call and an attendant showed up within 20 minutes. The attendant was dressed in a Santa outfit to thrill the kids. The car was opened quickly and the thevweekend was saved. Thank you Joe Rader Towing! This is a real service oriented company.

70 year old father in law gets a flat tire. Simple flat tire. Hundred plus miles from home, 200 plus miles from his destination. Parked in a public parking lot and this company told me it was too cold to change his tire. Despicable. Holiday season and this is how we treat our elderly. I drove the 2.5 hours to change it myself.

They were quick and to the point. I promise you their prices can’t be beat! Very pleasant employees. Take my advice and don’t use anybody but Joes. They can’t be beat!.

Awesome work ! Very careful and efficient. Would love to have them tow for me again especially when my car is pretty low to the ground. Trent does an amazing job.

Great service! Trent took excellent care when transporting our classic car from one garage to another! Definitely will utilize them for future towing needs.

My son’s car was rear ended and completely destroyed last night. The tow truck operator got to the scene before I did! Not only was he fast and efficient, he cleared the mess on the road, helped us retrieve personal items from the car, and kept us laughing through a stressful situation with his witty personality. He was very professional and competent. Give him a raise!

My car broke down just north of Wausau on 51 and I don't live in the area. The operator answered the photo after one ring, and within a minute had all the basic information needed to dispatch a drive to my location. The driver then called about 2 minutes later to confirm my location, and also gave a few recommendations for reputable, local, auto repair shops. The driver arrived within 15 minutes of our call. I spent less than half an hour stranded on the highway. Then, the drive to the auto shop was just over 15 miles, which normally would constitute a rate increase for towing mileage, but the driver charged me at the standard rate. Couldn't have been happier with the whole experience - fast response, gave good advice on auto shops, and professional service throughout the ordeal.

After waiting 6 hours for a AAA dispatched tow truck I called Joe Rader. The driver was at the house within 45 minutes. He did his business proficiently and was on his way in about 10 minutes. The dispatcher was friendly when I called; confirmed she had my information correct. It was a good experience on a very early Friday morning.

Best experience with a towing company ever. Guy showed up early and helped to save my company a lot of money instead of taking the expensive route. His knowledge was far beyond just towing and he was not afraid to dig in and help in order to do what was best for the customer! Thanks Joe Raider!!

Excellent service from the start! In store & stated keys locked in car & at least 4 or 5 individuals stated call Joe Rader Towing. Their reputation proceeds them to have so many ppl recommend this company. Thank you Neil for your efficient skills in getting car unlocked! Definitely would call them if needed & so should you:-) Stella

Absolutely horrible service. My vehicle was dragged roughly 10 feet destroying brand new tires. They are supposed to use skids when the owner is not present. THEY DID NOT! Instead they hooked a chain and dragged my car. When bringing it up to an employee all he had to say was “I didn’t tow it” Push it if you have too, what ever you have to do to avoid dealing with this company.

This business has saved two of my kids. AAA left my teenage son late at night for 3 hours on the side of the road and finally a police officer called Joe Rader. They came within 20 min., and it turns out AAA dispatch never did call it in at all. The driver did not even charge my son and was so helpful, I am forever grateful. Recently my daughter got in a bad accident and the car was totaled. Joe Rader responded and the driver was again very helpful and the towing cost was very reasonable according to the collision place.

Joe Rader (Jason) was my saving grace this evening. I had already been waiting over an hour for my “roadside service” from a third party with no luck. Decided to call around locally in hopes of quicker service. Luckily for me Joe Rader answered my call and promptly sent a truck (Jason). Jason was polite and professional, would definitely call again (but hopefully not needed 😁).

Really had a rough time dealing with these tough guys.. after someone stole my bike and they made me pay to get it out or risk running up a bigger bill I'm on a fixed income I shouldn't have had to pay to get my stolen bike back 400 is highway Robbery

I requested to have my vehicle towed from my house by my insurance using roadside assistance because my vehicle was unable to be driven to a repair facility. They came and picked up my vehicle, everything was fine, until I called the next day to verify my vehicle was brought to the right facility. They said they never received my vehicle. Upon calling the towing company they said that they were instructed to drop it off at a different address, even though my insurance company emailed and texted me a copy of the invoice that says exactly what address it was supposed to be dropped off at. The towing company denied all wrongdoing and insisted that the address that they dropped the vehicle was brought to was correct, even though it was not. I should also mention that my insurance did tell me later that the address was edited by the towing company, so they towed it to where they wanted to basically. If you care about your vehicle, and want to make sure it gets brought to the proper location, I would look elsewhere. Very, very unprofessional company. No apology, nothing to make it right, they wouldn’t even tow it to the proper location which resulted it me having to wait 3 extra days to get my vehicle fixed. Will not, and would not recommend using this company ever again. Very sketchy business.

I was stuck in Wausau with a car that wouldn't start after stopping for lunch on the way back from a family ski trip in da UP. After waiting for a tow truck that was sent my way for 3 hours(No Show) I was then set up with Rader. Trent was there in about 20 minutes, and within 5 minutes, we had a plan of action and got it where it needed to go so I could get picked up for my 2 hour remainder of my ride home. I'm grateful for Trent, his high level of professionalism, and most of all, his kindness he showed me when I really needed it. Thank you, Trent and Rader team!

My vehicle was stuck in park and I could not turn the key. I called directly and the woman working dispatch was efficient in getting my information and sending a driver to my location quickly. Trent the driver took the time to assess my vehicle and see what options were available for loading it onto the tow truck. He was also professional and patient when answering my questions. Unfortunately, the rear wheels were locked, and this would require dragging the vehicle onto the bed of the truck. Trent was thorough in his explanation of the risk of drivetrain damage when dragging the vehicle, and I appreciate him asking my permission before doing it. I was prepared to watch my vehicle get pulled several feet; however, Trent is an expert operator and loaded my vehicle with little to no movement. When unloading, Trent got my vehicle back onto the ground smoothly. He even found a parking stall with snow on it at the repair shop so my vehicle could slide and minimize the potential for any damage. I really appreciate that he recognized how well I have cared for my vehicle and took the time to load and unload it carefully. Overall, I had a great experience with Joe Rader Towing. If Trent is any indicator of the quality of their employees, this is absolutely the place to call for a tow truck!

Locked my keys in my car. Called Joe Rader Towing and they told me they'd have someone to me in 30 minutes. Came exactly as stated, professional and quick. I was expecting such a service to be around $100 but paid just under $60. Hopefully you don't lock your keys in your car but if you do, these guys are great.

The starter went out on my truck at the gas pumps at Fleet Farm. They recommended Joe Rader Towing for a tow to a shop that works on starters. They were very professional on the phone and the driver was excellent. He was prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. I can't say enough good about this company and especially the driver. I highly recommend.

I understand that some towing services are a bit pricey but when the only thing they do is pull you out of the ditch (wasn't even that far in) and don't even have to hoist your vehicle up to their trailer I don't understand why that costed me $253!!! The one guy said he was even cutting me a deal. I'm sorry but how is $253 cutting me a deal?? I have had better experience when I lived elsewhere and was more than half that ridiculous price. I won't be calling them again!!

Joe Rader saved the day when I was locked out of my car while 2 of my small children were inside the car. The driver was so kind and worked quickly. I was so appreciative of such fast, professional service.

Had a blowout on interstate with no spare. Driver was there within 15 minutes of phone call. Very fast and friendly service. Price was a little less than i expected, which is always good. I'm not sure of driver's name but i believe it was owners father in law. Very helpful! Thank you so much for rescuing us!
