Towing in Read

Arranging the work in Read

Searching for towing in Read? CarmaCars does not do this work itself, but we arrange it with a trusted shop. In short: A tow to a shop or to your home, by a towing company we arrange, not by CarmaCars. If you are in danger or blocking traffic, call 911 first. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.

The steps

You approve the shop's quote before any work begins. You deal with the shop for the repair itself, and with us for the rental. We pass your details to a trusted shop or give you its name, as you prefer. Send a request with the car and what it needs. A person replies and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.

A car while yours is in the shop

Choose a car that suits your week; delivery is priced in the offer. A rental means the repair does not stop your week. Prefer to collect it? Pickup at our Toronto location is free.

Between shop visits

Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.

Questions to ask the shop

Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
