THINGS TO DO BEFORE HIRING ANY TOWING COMPANY

​Before hiring a towing company you should take the necessary steps to make sure your vehicle is protected from all areas such as,

• Thieves 
• Car damaged
• Hidden Fees
• Long ETA's

When it comes to choosing a company to tow your vehicle you want to make sure that the tow truck company is a well known tow truck company.
Going with the cheapest towing company possible is not always the best option. Make sure the business is registered with the state and has insurance.
You have the right to ask for the licensed and insurance number before they lay one finger on your vehicle.
Believe it or not Buffalo, New York has several towing companies that operate without any kind of insurance.
Instead they make you sign paperwork that they are not responsible for any damages to your vehicle.
That right there is a read flag 95% of the time and others make you sign something just to have proof of things or if they belong to motorclubs, But if you are still unsure then you should call another towing company immediately!

Car Damaged - The cheapest and the faster companies are not always the best option to go with.   There's a reason why some companies offer low prices.
One reason why is because the company itself is either Owner Operated and the owner handles every aspect and no employees or is not a legit company.
Do your research when deciding on a towing company in Buffalo, New York.
When a non legit legal towing company gets a hold of your vehicle 9 times out of 10 they are not responsible for any car damages that may occur when they transport your vehicle in Buffalo Ny.   Hire a towing company such as 
Buffalo Towing Services who is licensed and insured
to protect your vehicle no matter what. 

Hidden Fees - 
Before accepting towing services for your vehicle be sure to ask all questions!
Do not be afraid to ask the final price, it's your money and you have the right to know every detail of the cost of towing services.
Beware of towing companies claiming to only charge $50 for a tow. Several towing companies will not inform the customer that their is an additional cost for anything over 5 miles.   That 15 mile tow can cost you over $100's in a matter of seconds. 
Buffalo Towing Services offers flat rate prices and will not charge any hidden fees unless we need to use additional equipment or if it is a out of area tow.
So you should Trust a towing company that does not trick you without informing you about the towing price before having them come out to perform services.

LONG ETA - When hiring a towing company you can almost be certain that you will be waiting for a tow truck to reach you between 30minutes and 90minutes in most situations depending on the traffic and weather and conditions or anything else that can potentially cause any delays.
Before having a tow truck driver sent your way, ask the towing company for the drivers number and how long is the estimated eta for towing services.
Do not be left in the dark wondering when your driver is coming. 
If you feel like the ETA on a tow truck is to long for you to wait do not hesitate to call another towing company. Buffalo Towing Services has never had a wait time over 1hr. Majority of the ETA's times are less than 45 mins long,
I recommend giving them a call first!
