Manitoba towing runs on general consumer law plus municipal rules. Winnipeg operates a designated annual snow route parking ban (overnight, December 1 to March 1) plus declared snow-clearing bans - cars parked on snow routes get towed to nearby streets, not an impound, so check adjacent blocks first. MPI (Manitoba Public Insurance) handles accident claims and typically covers the tow from a collision scene.
The Trans-Canada and Highway 75 south run long, exposed and drift-prone. In a whiteout, do not stop in a live lane - find a approach road or wait it out at the last town. Manitoba's Slow Down Move Over law covers tow trucks; give working operators the lane.
At -35°C, batteries, tires, and door locks all fail at once and every operator's phone rings together. Winter kit, block heater, and a booster pack in the trunk cover the three most common calls.

Around Brandon, expect a typical hook-up fee of $75–$110 plus roughly $3.00–$4.00 per kilometre for a standard light-duty tow, before tax. Nights, storms, winching and heavy vehicles cost more; short in-town tows often land near the minimum. Always ask for the all-in price to your destination before the truck rolls - reputable operators quote it without hesitation. Roadside fixes (boosts, lockouts, tire changes) usually run a flat $45–$120 and are worth asking about first.
