McCook Towing That Knows Willow County Roads
We're not a 1-800 line routing you to some out-of-state center. The people who answer and the drivers who show up live here, run US-6, US-34, and US-83 every day, and know the empty miles toward Trenton and the river-bottom roads well enough to find you fast.
- ✓These are our roads. From the US-83 corridor through downtown McCook to the gravel out past Indianola and Culbertson, we already know the quickest way to you.
- ✓The price is set before we hook up. You hear the full cost on the phone, and that's what you settle at drop-off — nothing tacked on later.
- ✓The right truck, not just any truck. Roll-back flatbed, wheel-lift, or a winch rig — we match the equipment to what you're actually dealing with.
- ✓Careful hands on every load. A rusty commuter or a lifted 4x4 gets the same patient, no-damage handling.
- ✓Answering around the clock. Late nights, weekends, holidays — we pick up when the other outfits let it ring.
Customer Reviews
What McCook Drivers Say
★★★★★
"My AWD quit on me out on US-83 south of town and I was dreading the bill. The driver quoted me straight up before he touched it, then eased it onto the roll-back like it was nothing. Not a scratch, and a fair price."
DP
Danielle P.
★★★★★
"Locked myself out downtown at night with my toddler still buckled in back. They talked me through it, got there quick, and had the door open clean in a couple minutes. Cannot thank these folks enough."
CH
Curtis H.
★★★★★
"Called three places and these were the only ones who actually answered and gave me a real time. The truck showed up when they said, hauled my pickup to the shop damage-free, and the price matched the quote."
WS
Wade S.
★★★★★
"Engine died on a county road outside Bartley after dark and I had no clue who to call. McCook Towing had a driver to me faster than I expected and dropped my car right at my mechanic. Polite and reasonable the whole way."
MT
Megan T.
★★★★★
"Ran the tank dry coming back from North Platte on US-83 and coasted onto the shoulder. One call and they brought fuel right out to the highway. Turned a ruined night into a twenty-minute wait."
BK
Brian K.
★★★★★
"Buried my truck in a muddy ditch off NE-89 by Culbertson and figured I was stuck for hours. Their guy rolled up with the right gear, winched me out clean, and never once made me feel dumb about it. Worth every penny."

Drive an AWD or 4WD truck, a lowered car, or ride a motorcycle? Go flatbed — it carries the whole vehicle off the ground and spares the drivetrain. A plain front- or rear-drive car usually tows fine on a wheel-lift. Not sure which fits? Describe your ride on the phone and we'll steer you right.
Get onto the shoulder as far as you can, flip your hazards on right away, and stay buckled inside if cars are moving fast. Then call (615) 241-0232 with your direction of travel and the closest mile marker or landmark. Our US-83 breakdown guide walks through the rest.
