What Counts as an Emergency Tow?

In Hays and across Ellis County, an emergency tow is any situation where your vehicle can't safely stay where it is — a crash on I-70, a breakdown blocking a lane, a car in a ditch after bad weather, or a vehicle that simply won't move in a spot it shouldn't be. When you call Hays Towing, a live dispatcher answers, day or night.

Step 1: You Call, a Real Person Answers

No phone tree, no bots. Tell us where you are — a mile marker on I-70, a cross street in Hays, or a landmark like Ellis. Tell us what happened and what you're driving. That's enough for us to send the right truck.

Step 2: We Dispatch the Right Truck

For an AWD car, a low-clearance vehicle, or anything that shouldn't roll, we send a flatbed. For a standard car that just needs to move, a wheel-lift is faster. We tell you the price before we hook up — no surprises at drop-off.

Upfront pricing, every time. We quote the cost on the phone. What we say is what you pay — no drop-off surcharges, no "fuel fees" added later.

Step 3: Back on the Road

We tow your vehicle to your mechanic, dealership, or home — wherever you need it in northwest Kansas. Most emergency calls in Ellis County see a driver on scene within 30–45 minutes.
