Hear from Our Customers
You’re not just getting a tow truck driver. You’re getting master-certified automotive technicians who can often fix the problem on the spot, saving you time and money. Whether it’s a dead battery, flat tire, or lockout, we bring the same expertise that’s kept Athens vehicles running for over 30 years directly to your location.
No membership fees. No hidden charges. Just straightforward help when your day goes sideways. Our technicians carry the tools and knowledge to handle everything from simple jump-starts to complex roadside repairs that other services can’t touch.
Most roadside assistance closest to you comes from drivers with basic training. We send certified automotive professionals who can diagnose problems, not just move your vehicle somewhere else.
We’ve been solving vehicle problems in Athens and Clarke County for decades. We know these roads, from the winding routes around UGA campus to the back roads of Whitehall where cell service gets spotty.
Unlike corporate roadside services that send whoever’s closest, we’re the same certified technicians who rebuild transmissions and diagnose complex automotive issues. When you call us for roadside assistance near me, you’re getting someone who can actually assess what’s wrong and often fix it right there instead of just loading you onto a flatbed.
We’ve built our reputation on transparency and expertise. The same values that earned us industry-leading warranties on our shop work apply to our emergency roadside service.
Call us and we dispatch a certified technician to your exact location in Whitehall or anywhere in the Athens area. No phone trees, no waiting on hold with some call center in another state. You talk directly to someone who knows the area.
Our technician arrives with a fully equipped service vehicle and diagnostic tools. We assess the situation first, then explain your options clearly. Many issues like dead batteries, flat tires, or minor mechanical problems get resolved on the spot. If towing is needed, we handle it professionally and get you to the right place, not just the nearest shop.
You pay one transparent fee for the service you actually receive. No surprise charges, no membership requirements, no fine print designed to catch you off guard when you’re already having a bad day.

Our roadside assistance covers everything you’d expect plus services others can’t provide. Jump-starts, tire changes, lockout service, fuel delivery, and emergency towing are standard. But we also handle on-site diagnostics, minor repairs, and technical issues that require actual automotive knowledge.
Athens drivers face unique challenges. Summer heat that kills batteries faster than anywhere else in Georgia. Sudden storms that flood low-lying areas near campus. Winter ice that catches everyone off guard because it happens so rarely. We’ve seen it all and know how to handle the specific problems that strand vehicles in this area.
UGA students, military personnel, and first responders receive special pricing because we believe in supporting the people who serve our community. It’s not just a discount—it’s recognition that you’re dealing with enough already without worrying about getting ripped off during an emergency.
Our typical response time for Whitehall and the Athens area is 30-45 minutes, often faster depending on your exact location and our technician availability. We’re not operating from some distant dispatch center—we’re based locally and know the fastest routes to reach you.
Unlike services that give you a 2-hour window, we provide realistic timeframes and keep you updated if anything changes. Our technicians carry cell phone boosters for areas with poor coverage, so communication stays reliable even in the more remote parts of Clarke County where Whitehall Road winds through rural areas.
Our certified technicians can handle most common roadside issues without towing. Dead batteries get jump-started or replaced on the spot. Flat tires are changed using your spare or repaired if it’s a simple puncture. Lockouts are resolved quickly without damaging your vehicle.
We also diagnose and repair minor mechanical issues like loose connections, belt problems, or cooling system leaks that other roadside services can’t touch. Our service vehicles carry diagnostic equipment and common repair parts, so problems that would strand you for hours elsewhere often get resolved in minutes with us.
The difference is expertise. We’re not just roadside assistance—we’re automotive professionals who happen to come to you during emergencies.
No membership fees, no annual charges, no hidden costs. You pay for the service you receive when you receive it. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Our pricing is based on the actual service provided, not inflated emergency rates designed to take advantage of your situation. UGA students, military personnel, and first responders receive additional discounts because we believe emergency help shouldn’t break your budget when you’re already contributing to our community.
Yes, we service everything from compact cars to pickup trucks, including European vehicles, classic cars, and muscle cars that require specialized knowledge. Our technicians have experience with all major makes and models, plus the diagnostic equipment to work on modern computerized vehicles.
Many roadside services struggle with European cars or older vehicles because their technicians lack the expertise. Our master-certified technicians work on these vehicles daily in our shop, so we understand their specific requirements and common issues. Whether you drive a BMW, a classic Mustang, or a modern Honda, we have the knowledge to help.
If towing is necessary, we handle it professionally using proper equipment for your specific vehicle type. We don’t just drag your car to the nearest shop—we discuss your options and can tow to your preferred repair facility, your home, or our shop if you’d like us to handle the repairs.
Our flatbed and wheel-lift equipment protects your vehicle during transport. We secure everything properly and document any existing damage to avoid disputes later. Since we’re a full-service automotive shop, we can also provide repair estimates and handle warranty work if needed, backed by our industry-leading warranties.
Yes, we provide 24/7 service regardless of weather conditions. Athens weather can change quickly, and that’s often when vehicles break down most. Our technicians are equipped for rain, ice, and extreme heat conditions that are common in Georgia.
We take extra safety precautions during severe weather and may adjust response times if conditions are dangerous, but we don’t shut down when other services do. Our local knowledge helps us navigate weather-related road issues and reach you safely even when conditions are challenging around UGA campus or the rural areas of Whitehall.
