Billy helped me out today. It was so much easier than AAA, and I am very thankful for him helping me out with my car. He told me where to leave the keys, and kept me updated every step of the way. I couldn’t be happier!
Thank you Scott and Courtesy Equipment Transport and Towing for your help with towing my totaled vehicle and turning my license plate into dmv. Your friendly service and professional courtesy made my experience much easier.
The driver that came out was very professional, thoughtful, patient, and kind with my grandma. Definitely recommend.
The gentleman that towed my totaled car was great. Polite, informative, sympathetic. The main office manager Scott couldn’t be nicer! I was super impressed with their service overall… thank you Courtesy!
There isnt enough stars to rate this company! Billy and Scott were beyond helpful to me. It didnt take 10mins for them to reach where my children and I were stranded beside the road tonight. Scott was super quick with getting my tire changed. I would highly recommend this tow service!!! Wonderful and compassionate people!

Went to start my car and to my shock it would not start, but the dashboard lights still came on, as well as the radio, so was hoping the problem was a weakening battery. Called my auto insurance for roadside assistance, battery jump and possible car tow. Thought I was going to have to wait forever for a tow truck. The insurance company sent a text that someone from Courtesy Towing would be coming out. It wasn't even an hour and the driver was at the car! The driver they sent was Billy. He took at least 15 minutes to make sure the issue wasn't the battery. He really wanted to make sure the vehicle needed to be towed, and I SO appreciated his effort. Who still offers that kind of service in this day and age?? Once determined vehicle had to be towed, it was loaded onto the truck no problem. And while his tow skills are FANTASTIC, it was the customer service, down to earth professionalism and courtesy he showed during the ride to the garage that blew me away! Asking if the air was too cold or not cold enough, offering the use of a cup holder for my soda can, making sure the seat wasn't too hot, if I needed help getting out of the truck. He also shared some interesting information about the changes in the field of towing. Will definitely ask my auto insurance for this company again and will DEFINITELY ask them to send Billy!

Great people! I had Billy come and pick me up from an accident where my car was totaled. He is very personable and definitely got my mind off the accident. Scott and Billy worked with me while I was trying to get a new car while my old car was on their lot.
Alisa, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It was a pleasure meeting you under unfortunate circumstances.
Courtesy Towing & Billy are hands down the best providers of towing services in the Triangle. The best, most professional, and efficient experience I have ever had in regards to towing services. Won’t ever use another towing company again. Towing services are typically stressful, chaotic, not timely, etc. Courtesy towing makes towing EASY! Great job to the team.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us. We are glad that Billy made a positive impression and was able to help you efficiently.
I highly recommend Courtesy Towing! They arrived timely to the accident to tow my vehicle and when I needed to go to the lot on Saturday, even though they were closed, Billy made a special trip to open the gate for me. Really good dude too!
Scott, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are certainly glad that we exceeded your expectations and that you had a great experience with Billy. Cheers!
