I can't say enough good things about A1 Towing & Cash For Junk Cars on Fort St. Late at night, I ended up stranded on the other side of town after blowing two tires. I had my young daughter with me, no one to call, and honestly didn't know what I was going to do. When I called, the owner immediately sent one of his employees to help us. He took my damaged tires off, went back to their salvage yard, found two good replacement tires, came back, installed them, and got us safely back on the road. I was trying to figure out how I was going to come up with the money to pay because I was already in a tough spot. Instead, they simply told me not to worry about it. They weren't running a charity, and I never expected anything for free. They could just tell I was having a hard time, and they chose compassion over profit. At a time when I felt completely stuck and alone, they showed up for my daughter and me like family. It honestly felt like God put the right people in our path that night. Acts of kindness like this are rare, and I'll never forget what they did for us. They've earned my respect and my business for life. If you ever need towing or roadside assistance, this is the company to call. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reminding me that there are still people who genuinely care about others. If you ask me that deserves 5 stars 10 if they were available... Again, Thank you so much to the fellows at A1 towing, you will be in my forever prayers and thoughts.... GOD bless you fellows and your families....🙏🙏🙏
thank you
