Island-wide towing and trailer transport from Nanaimo
Vancouver Island Towing Ltd is a locally owned company based in Nanaimo, British Columbia, offering towing and roadside assistance across Vancouver Island. Services include flatbed towing, long-distance towing, accident recovery and vehicle recovery, plus trailer towing for both registered and uninsured trailers, using transporter plates so uninsured loads remain covered and legal for on-road transport. Roadside assistance covers battery boosting, vehicle unlocking (the company says it can typically get a driver back in within 15 minutes) and basic automotive work such as fluid checks, wiper blades, bulb replacement and battery installation, with these services starting at $65 within Nanaimo for passenger vehicles. The company also handles scrap car removal. The team describes its approach as tackling any scenario with maximum effort, and its technicians are trained to inspect vehicles and trailers before towing to ensure the job is done safely. A broad insurance policy lets the company cover trailers that aren't otherwise insured, supplying a transporter plate so the move stays legal between locations. Its long-distance service offers same or next-day delivery within British Columbia and a two-to-three day turnaround for shipments headed to Alberta or Saskatchewan, with load securement equipment for damage-free transport of cars, SUVs, light trucks, motorcycles, ATVs and light machinery. Though based in Nanaimo, the company serves the whole of Vancouver Island, reaching as far up-island as Port Hardy and Port McNeill, and covering Campbell River, Courtenay, Parksville, Ladysmith, Duncan and Victoria along the way. The business is open seven days a week, with weekday and Saturday hours from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays by appointment. Fully licensed and insured, the team is a solid call for anyone on Vancouver Island needing a vehicle towed, recovered or transported off-island.
