Ottawa's largest towing fleet, dispatched in about 14 minutes
Ottawa Metro Towing & Recovery has spent 26 years building what it calls the largest towing fleet in Ottawa, dispatching from Lancaster Road around the clock, every day of the year. The company is a preferred provider for most major insurance companies and works directly with local police and municipal and provincial agencies on collision calls, with an average arrival time it puts at around 14 minutes. Its equipment goes well beyond a standard wrecker: rotators for the heaviest recoveries, Landolls and double-drop trailers for oversized loads, zero-degree flatbeds, container-moving trucks, and dedicated rigs for underground parkades, which together let the company take on jobs from a compact car in a ditch to a rolled tractor-trailer on the highway. Dedicated service lines cover electric vehicle towing, scrap car pickup, machinery and equipment moving, and 12- and 24-volt battery boosting, alongside vehicle unlocks. A fenced storage facility is open for vehicle pickup Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday mornings, with after-hours access available for a posted fee. The company markets itself on volume rather than high per-job pricing, saying it keeps rates competitive because it handles a large number of tows every day rather than needing to overcharge on any single call. Customers quoted on the site describe drivers as careful with classic cars and quick to help after a collision or in a snowbank. For anyone stranded or in a crash anywhere in the Ottawa Valley region, Ottawa Metro Towing & Recovery presents its scale and insurance relationships as the reason to call.
