How a call works
Save This Aliso Viejo Towing Phone Number Before You Need It
Most people look for a tow truck while standing on a shoulder. Save our number now and skip that scramble later.
01
Tell us where you are
A 73 exit, a cross street or a parking lot works. “Aliso Creek and Enterprise” is plenty.

03
Get your price and ETA
You hear both before the truck rolls. No surprises after the job.
04

The driver checks your car, loads it and drops it where you choose.
What should you tell the dispatcher? Your location, the make and model, and what happened. Tell us if the car sits in a traffic lane. If anyone is hurt, hang up and call 911 first.

Do you need a tow or just a jump start? A slow crank or a clicking sound often means a dead battery. A car that won’t move, leaks fluid or shows red warning lights needs a tow. Our dispatcher helps you decide.
Not sure which service you need?

AWD and EV owners
Can You Tow an AWD or Electric Car Without Damaging It?
Yes, on a flatbed. Towing an AWD car with two wheels on the road can strain the drivetrain. Many EVs also need transport mode before they move at all.
We load these cars with all four wheels off the ground. Tell us your model, and we send the right truck.

What to Look for in an Aliso Viejo Towing Company
Use this checklist before you hire any Aliso Viejo towing company.
- Does it list a street address and a local phone number?
- Can it show a license and proof of insurance?
- Will it give you a price before it sends a truck?
- Does it send the right truck for your car?
- Does it take cards and hand you an itemized bill?
| What to check | Hook & Haul Towing | Generic Towing Lead Sites |
|---|---|---|
| Physical address in Aliso Viejo | ✓ Yes (30 Enterprise, Suite 150) | Often none or fake |
| Insurance & license details shown | ✓ Yes ($2M Commercial Policy) | Rarely / Unverified |
| Upfront quote before dispatch | ✓ Yes (Guaranteed Flat Quote) | “Call for pricing” / Hidden fees |
| Specialized Flatbed for AWD & EVs | ✓ Yes (Low-angle & soft-straps) | Not stated / Standard dollies |
| Live local dispatchers 24/7 | ✓ Yes (Direct local team) | Out-of-state call centers |
Will you get an itemized bill? Yes, on every job. California requires tow storage yards to give one (CVC § 22651.07).
How Can You Tell if a Tow Company Is Legit?
Look for a real address, a license and a written price. California tow storage yards must accept valid credit cards (CVC § 22658(k)). Walk away from any quote that stays vague.

Safety first
Broke Down on the 73? What to Do While You Wait
- Get to the right shoulder. Take the next exit if you can reach it.
- Turn on your hazard lights.
- Stay in the car with your seat belt on.
- Get out only if you must. Use the right side door, away from traffic.
- Call for help. Call us, or dial 511 for motorist aid.
Should you stay in your car or get out? Stay in, belted, in most cases. If you stopped in a live lane or the center divide, call 911 first.
Sources: California Driver Handbook (DMV), CHP. The 73 has no toll booths, so you can still pay your toll online within 5 days (The Toll Roads).
Is There Free Roadside Help on Orange County Freeways?
Sometimes. OCTA’s Freeway Service Patrol helps stalled drivers for free on parts of the 5 and the 405. It runs Monday to Friday, 6 a.m. to 7 p.m., with limited weekend hours.
The 73 is not on its route list. When the patrol can’t reach you, call us.

FAQs
Towing Questions Aliso Viejo Drivers Ask
Still stuck on something? Call us. A real dispatcher answers.
Are you open 24/7, even on holidays?
We answer dispatch calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Late-night and holiday dispatches are handled with the exact same speed and transparent upfront pricing.
How do tow trucks find your exact location?
Share your phone’s location pin by text if you can. If not, give the nearest exit, cross street or business. “Northbound 73 before Aliso Creek” gets our driver to you fast.
Flatbed or wheel lift: which one does my car need?
A flatbed lifts your whole car onto a bed. Use it for AWD cars, EVs, lowered cars and damaged cars. A wheel lift raises two wheels and suits many cars on short tows.
Do you tow on the 73 toll road?
Yes. We pick up on the shoulder and at the ramps through Aliso Viejo, from Moulton to Pacific Park. If you sit in a traffic lane, call 911 first. You can pay the toll online within 5 days.
My car was towed from an apartment or HOA lot. How do I get it back?
Call the number on the posted tow sign first. You can also call the Orange County Sheriff’s non emergency line at 949-770-6011. The tow yard must give you an itemized bill.
Do tow trucks charge more at night or on weekends?
Many do, because drivers work off shift. Ask about any after hours fee before you agree. We tell you ours on the phone, before dispatch.
Can a car with no keys be towed?
Yes. We routinely tow parked and immobilized vehicles from residential and commercial structures using specialized low-clearance trucks and wheel-lift dollies. Please have your photo ID and vehicle registration ready so our operator can confirm vehicle ownership.
Can I pay for a tow by card?
Yes. We accept all major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover), Apple Pay, debit cards, and cash. You will receive an immediate digital itemized receipt for direct submission to your auto insurance provider or roadside assistance plan.
Do you cover Laguna Beach, Mission Viejo and San Clemente?
Yes. We cover Aliso Viejo ZIP codes 92656 and 92698, plus Laguna Beach, Mission Viejo, San Clemente, Lake Forest, Laguna Niguel and Dana Point.
Can a business set up a towing account?
Yes. We provide priority commercial towing and property impound agreements for corporate centers along Pacific Park Drive, Enterprise, business parks, HOA property managers, and auto repair facilities with streamlined monthly invoicing.
Can I ride in the tow truck?
Yes. Our modern, climate-controlled tow truck cabs comfortably accommodate up to two passengers, so you never have to wait alone on the shoulder of the highway.
When should I call 911 instead of a tow company?
Call 911 if anyone is hurt, you see smoke or fire, or your car blocks a lane or sits in the center divide. Once everyone is safe, call us for the tow.
