Towing in Barriere

Help on the Road North of Kamloops

Barriere sits on Highway 5 in the North Thompson valley, about 65 km north of our Kamloops yard. It’s a stretch of highway where help can feel a long way off, especially at night or in winter, so we keep dispatch open around the clock.

Whether it’s a car with a dead battery, a pickup towing a camper, or a loaded semi off the road, we have the equipment to move it, from light-duty tow trucks to heavy recovery units.

Our car broke down after an unexpected encounter with a deer. Thankfully, the tow service showed up promptly. Bob really saved the day, he was not only experienced and skillful, but also warm and kind. We are most appreciative of Bob!

I wanted to leave a huge thank you to Don's Auto Towing and especially my driver, Wayne! He was absolutely amazing and completely saved the day for me. From the moment he arrived, Wayne was professional, kind, and incredibly efficient. Dealing with vehicle trouble is always stressful, but his positive attitude and helpfulness completely turned my day around. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled safely and smoothly. He even towed my car back home from the shop after his very busy shift. I cannot thank Wayne enough for his outstanding service and rescue. If you ever need assistance, I highly recommend asking for Wayne at Don's Auto Towing. Five stars all the way!

I had a flat two days ago…and wouldn’t you know it…I got another today (not the spare) in a bit of an out of the way place. The tire was not repairable, so I needed a tow. Hats off to the young man, Andrew, who provided quick, efficient and cordial service to tow my vehicle to the tire shop! Many thanks!

Had a great experience with Don’s Towing. Carter came out to help tow my sister’s car out of her garage, which was in a very tight space at the back of an alley. He was very professional, careful, and knew exactly what he was doing. He did a great job getting the car out without any issues. Really appreciate the excellent service, Carter! Highly recommend Don’s Towing.
