The driver arrived 30 minutes before estimated time of arrival. He was friendly and very helpful. I cannot comment on the towing cost because it was included in my roadside assistance package, and I did not have to pay for it.

After waiting about 2 hours for a different tow company that never came I called McGann & Chester, to get my vehicle unstuck. 20 minutes later Dave showed up and had me free, driving again, in 10 minutes The driver was super professional and I couldn’t be happier with the service.
