Professional Wheel-Lift Towing

Wheel-lift towing is the workhorse of everyday towing — fast, affordable, and ideal for front-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive vehicles that need a short-distance tow. Economy Tow uses modern wheel-lift equipment that cradles only the drive wheels, leaving the other wheels rolling freely. It is the most cost-effective option for mechanical breakdowns, parking enforcement, illegal parking removals, and vehicles stuck in low-clearance parking garages where a flatbed cannot fit.

Our wheel-lift trucks are nimble enough to navigate downtown San Jose parking structures, tight apartment complex lots, and underground garages throughout Milpitas and Sunnyvale where a full flatbed would bottom out or scrape the ceiling. The under-lift boom reaches vehicles parked against walls or between tightly-packed cars, making wheel-lift towing the right choice for repossession, parking enforcement, and garage extractions.

For everyday breakdowns — a dead transmission on CA-237, a blown radiator in Berryessa, a failed starter in Evergreen — wheel-lift towing gets your vehicle to your trusted mechanic quickly and affordably. We never tow all-wheel-drive or 4WD vehicles on a wheel-lift (that requires a flatbed or dollies), and our drivers will always recommend the correct method for your vehicle to prevent drivetrain damage. Honest advice and the right equipment, every call.

Professional 24/7 Accident Towing

An accident is one of the most stressful moments a driver will face. Economy Tow provides 24/7 emergency accident towing and recovery throughout Milpitas, San Jose, and Santa Clara County, with ERSCA certified operators who know how to secure a scene, recover damaged vehicles safely, and coordinate with first responders and insurance companies. When you call (408) 923-6212, a real person answers — day or night, weekends and holidays.

Our accident-recovery drivers are trained directly with ERSCA (Emergency Road Service Contractors of America) and hold California certified towing operator credentials. We arrive with the right equipment for the situation — flatbeds for drivable vehicles, wheel-lifts for tight freeway shoulders, and recovery winches for vehicles that have gone off-road, down an embankment, or into a ditch. We secure the scene with cones and lighting, carefully extract the vehicle to prevent further damage, and transport it to your chosen body shop, storage facility, or home.

We work directly with Milpitas Police, San Jose Police, CHP, and private property managers on rotation and non-rotation calls, and we coordinate seamlessly with insurance adjusters and auto body shops to keep your claim moving. Every accident tow includes clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees, and we document the vehicle condition at pickup so you have a record for your insurer. From minor fender-benders on I-880 to multi-vehicle incidents on US-101, Economy Tow handles accident recovery with professionalism and compassion.

Professional Motorcycle Towing

Motorcycles demand specialized handling that ordinary tow trucks cannot provide. Economy Tow transports motorcycles on flatbed trucks equipped with custom wheel chocks and soft-strap tie-down systems that secure the bike upright without scratching the fairings, bending handlebars, or stressing the suspension. From cruisers and sportbikes to vintage classics and custom choppers, we move every motorcycle with the care it deserves.

A motorcycle strapped incorrectly can tip, slide, or sustain costly damage in transit. Our operators chock the front wheel, anchor the bike with padded soft straps at four points, and use frame sliders and tank-protector pads to prevent contact damage. We never use hooks on cast wheels or hard chains that can crack rims or gouge swingarms. Whether your bike has a dead battery in a Milpitas parking lot, a blown tire on the Stevens Creek corridor, or you need a track bike hauled to Laguna Seca, we deliver it upright and unscratched.

We also transport dirt bikes, scooters, mopeds, trikes, and sidecar rigs. Off-road recoveries — a bike down on a fire road or stuck in a creek bed — are handled with our flatbed winch and loading ramps. Riders across the South Bay trust Economy Tow because we treat every motorcycle like it is our own.

Professional 24/7 Roadside Assistance

Economy Tow provides fast, affordable 24/7 roadside assistance throughout Milpitas, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Fremont, Santa Clara, and Santa Clara County. Not every problem needs a tow — a dead battery, a flat tire, or locked-in keys can often be solved right where you are. Our certified operators arrive in fully equipped service vehicles ready to get you back on the road quickly, with an honest upfront quote and no hidden fees.

Our roadside assistance covers the most common breakdowns South Bay drivers face. A dead battery is one of the most frequent calls — our operators carry heavy-duty jump-start packs that start everything from compact sedans to large trucks and SUVs. If you have locked your keys in your vehicle, our trained technicians use non-destructive entry tools to unlock your car without damaging the locks, weatherstripping, or door frame.

Flat tires happen on every road from I-880 to El Camino Real. We arrive with the tools to swap your flat for your spare, or to inflate and re-seat a bead if the tire is repairable. Out of fuel on US-101 or CA-237? We deliver enough gas or diesel to reach the nearest station. And if your vehicle is stuck in a ditch, mud, snow, or off the shoulder, our winch-out recovery service pulls it back to solid ground safely.

One call to (408) 923-6212 reaches a real person 24/7 who dispatches the closest certified operator with an accurate ETA. Because we are based in Milpitas, we reach Milpitas and North San Jose faster than out-of-town companies. Whether you need a jump-start in a Downtown San Jose parking garage, a tire change on I-680, or a lockout service in Sunnyvale, Economy Tow delivers professional roadside help that gets you moving again.
